[Verse 1]
Lately I've been measuring
Seems my time is growing thin
Wind me up and watch me spin
Watch me spin
Watch me spin

[Chorus]
Skin and bones
Skin and bones
Skin and bones, don't you know?
Skin and bones
Skin and bones
Skin and bones, don't you know?

[Post-Chorus]
I'm just skin and bones

[Verse 2]
All worn out and nothing fits
Brennevin and cigarettes
The more I give the less I get
But I'm all set
I'm all set

[Chorus]
Skin and bones
Skin and bones
Skin and bones, don't you know?
Skin and bones
Skin and bones
Skin and bones, don't you know?

[Post-Chorus]
I'm just skin and bones
I'm just skin and bones
I'm just skin and bones
I'm just skin and bones
I'm just skin and bones

[Verse 3]
Deep within this frame of mind
Heart of hearts, oh Valentine
Tell my mom I'm doing fine
Doing fine
Doing fine

[Chorus]
Skin and bones
Skin and bones
Skin and bones, don't you know?
Skin and bones
Skin and bones
Skin and bones, don't you know?
Skin and bones
Skin and bones
Skin and bones, don't you know?

[Outro]
I'm just skin and bones
I'm just skin and bones
I'm just skin and bones
I'm just skin and bones
I'm just hey!

Foo Fighters are an American rock band formed in 1995 by former Nirvana drummer Dave Grohl. Originally a solo project by him to overcome the grief of Kurt Cobain’s death, Grohl attracted label interest with his inaugural demo tape.

According to Dave Grohl, the band is named after the UFOs that were reported by Allied aircraft pilots in World War II.

I was reading a lot of books on UFOs. Not only is it a fascinating subject, but there’s a treasure trove of band names in those UFO books! So, since I had recorded the first record by myself, playing all the instruments, but I wanted people to think that it was a group, I figured that FOO FIGHTERS might lead people to believe that it was more than just one guy. Silly, huh?
