well, your bones like milk because it does 'em good
your bones support you just the way they should
there's bones there from your toes to your dome
and your bones are nearly hard as a stone
if you had none, you would be lyin' prone
every body must have bones

well, your bones are where you hang your skin and meat
there's bones there in your spine from neck to seat
when bones are broke, although they feel so sore
your bones will knit and soon they'll be restored
they grow in length until you're fully grown
every body must have bones

the bones down in your feet will keep ya stable
your bones don't work so well, if you're disabled
your bones can get a bruise if you are struck
your bones fare even worse, if its a truck
well, i'm sure that you have got some of your own
every body must have bones

well, your bones get brittle when you're near the end
yes, your bones get whittled down and grow so thin
your bones can get diseases and be scarred
with bones like that, your life can be so hard
if you get x-rayed, they'll be plainly shown
every body must have bones

well, your bones, inside, look like a honeycomb
your bones can be replaced with ones of chrome
your bones will last a while if you behave
your bones dissolve, when you are in the grave
a person, that's without them, is unknown
every body must have bones
