[Verse 1]
I was dreaming of another place when the phone rang by my bed
"You wanna go, I'll take you there right now" the walrus said
You wanna see the pyramids on the Mississippi Nile?
Well, grab your heart and grab your soul, for this is gonna take a while

[Verse 2]
And there I was in the lap of the gods with these voices in my head
I saw three crosses on the floor, "Stand there" the walrus said
All the wonders of the world, assembled here to jam
The gang of four and plenty more were playin' here for Uncle Sam

[Chorus]
I'm standing in a roomful of ghosts
Turntables spinning 'round
I'm standing in a roomful of ghosts
Why don't you put the needle down, down, down?
Why don't you put the needle down, down, down?
Why don't you put the needle down?

[Verse 3]
I'm like some kid in a candy store, I've always been a fan
It's all still here, the atmosphere, it's where it all began
"If you believe," the walrus said, "this room comes back to life"
The hair was standing on the back of my head
I must be doing something right
[Chorus]
I'm standing in a roomful of ghosts
Turntables spinning 'round
I'm standing in a roomful of ghosts
Why don't you put the needle down, down, down?
Why don't you put the needle down, down, down?
Why don't you put the needle down?

[Bridge]
When every light went down on me
When every star was crossed
You scratched the surface of my soul
And you told me who I was

[Chorus]
I'm standing in a roomful of ghosts
Be still my foolish heart
I'm standing in a roomful of ghosts
And I don't know where to start
I'm standing in a roomful of ghosts
You showed me what to do
I'm standing in a roomful of ghosts
And I'm still haunting you
I'm standing in a roomful of ghosts
Turntables spinning 'round
I'm standing in a roomful of ghosts
Why don't you put the needle down down down?
Why don't you put the needle down, down, down?
Why don't you put the needle down, down, down?
Why don't you put the needle down?
