Ghostbusters

My mind is in a silly place right now, so I felt it fitting to post a silly song. The film that this song comes from is easily one of my very favourite movies, and I've watched it more times than I can remember. That damn ghostly librarian still gives me the creeps! Apparently the tune for this song was taken from another song, which led to Ray Parker Jnr being successfully sued by the original songs writer for royalties. Still, this song is remembered. I couldn't tell you what the other song was called or who sung it.

Ghostbusters by Ray Parker Jnr


Ghostbusters!

If there's something strange in your neighborhood
Who you gonna call?
Ghostbusters!
If there's something weird and it don't look good
Who you gonna call?
Ghostbusters!

I ain't afraid of no ghost
I ain't afraid of no ghost

If you're seeing things running through your head
Who can you call?
Ghostbusters!
An invisible man is sleeping in your bed
Oh, who you gonna call?
Ghostbusters!

I ain't afraid of no ghost
I ain't afraid of no ghost

Who you gonna call?
Ghostbusters!
If you're all alone, pick up the phone
And you call
Ghostbusters!

I ain't afraid of no ghost
I hear it likes the girls
I ain't afraid of no ghost
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Who you gonna call?
Ghostbusters!
If you've had a dose of a freaky ghost
Baby, you'd better call
Ghostbusters!

Let me tell you something
Bustin' makes me feel good

I ain't afraid of no ghost
I ain't afraid of no ghost

Don't get caught alone, oh no
Ghostbusters!
When it comes through your door
Unless you just want some more
I think you better call
Ghostbusters!
Ow!

Who you gonna call
Ghostbusters!
(Repeat to Fade)
