GHOSTS Lyrics
Artist(Band):The Jam
Review The Song (15)Print the Lyrics
Why are you frightened - can't you see that it's you
That ain't no ghost - it's a reflection of you
Why do you turn away - an' keep it out of sight
Oh - don't live up to your given roles
There's more inside you that you won't show

But you keep it hidden just like everyone
You're scared to show you care - it'll make you vulnerable
So you wear that ghost around you for disguise

But there's no need just 'cos it's all we've known
There's more inside you that you haven't shown

So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets

One day you'll walk right out of this life
And then you'll wonder why you didn't try

To spread some loving all around
Old fashioned causes like that still stand
Gotta rid this prejudice that ties you down

How do you feel at the end of the day
Just like you've walked over your own grave

So why are you frightened - can't you see that it's you
At the moment there's nothing - so there's nothing to lose
Lift up your lonely heart and walk right on through

Review about GHOSTS

Genius | Reviewer: haircut | 6/24/2008

My favourite Jam record although I like them all. The best band ever, Paul Weller can write lyrics in away that normal working class people from the UK can relate to. Unlike the gangster rap and r and b rubbish about today. Everyone in Britain can relate to 'a whole streets belief in Sundays roast beef' in Town called Malice. Songs Like Tube Station tell a story which you can visualise in your head and know exactly what is going on at anyone time like a 3 minute film. I love Down in the Tube Station at midnight but Ghosts just makes me feel the same everytime I hear it and just stops me in my tracks.
As David Brent would say Genuis. fact!!

Who the hell cares about being a "true" fan, buying music certainly doesnt make you one. Of course it'd be cool if everyone went and bought the Jam's albums but that doesnt mean that you MUST do it to genuinely like / be moved by this song, or any other for that matter. Top tune, no matter where you heard it first, be it a tv show or whatever.



True Fan | Reviewer: Eloise | 1/26/2008

Some of the reviews above are good (the one's by true fans), but others ones are just should be there, by hearing a song on a T.V show and then downloading it, does not make you a true fan and also downloading the song does not either cause all you are doing is taking money away from Paul Weller and the Jam, a true fan would have gone out and got the C.D, and how can you 'love' or think that by downloading it and 'knowing all the words' makes you a fan,i on the other hand have loved this song since the first time i heard it (years ago) and all of the other songs that Paul weller and The Jam have made over the years, and like real fans shall continue to listen to them buy their stuff.



An all time favourite and true classic | Reviewer: Helen | 1/9/2008

Ghost is so evocative, a beautiful, haunting song. (plesae forgive the pun.) It is one of my all time favourite, Jam songs - I cannot believe it isn't on the 'Best of' Album CD - I lost my copy of the album it is one, when my previous marriage broke up, and hearing the song again - on East Enders, has prompted me to buy a replacement. Thank you Paul Weller et al



unity | Reviewer: Dean Hncock | 1/8/2008

from art school to this!! they could go from all out assault riffage to melodic thought provoking tenderness. Ghosts is a take me away from reality for 3 minits classic.from that first boom of bruces opening note to the slick horn playing.God, they were good!



truly amaizing song | Reviewer: t | 1/7/2008

i herd this song whilst watchin eastenders wit my mum n gf. this is truly one ov the best songs i have ever herd, how can 1 man dream up lyrics like that, So why are you frightened - can't you see that it's you
At the moment there's nothing - so there's nothing to lose
Lift up your lonely heart and walk right on through
But you keep it hidden just like everyone
You're scared to show you care - it'll make you vulnerable
So you wear that ghost around you for disguise

pure quality



one amaizing true song | Reviewer: t | 1/6/2008
