[Intro]
Something's weird... and it's probably your fault.

[Verse 1]
If there's something strange in the studio apartment,
(Who you gonna call? Someone with a real job!)
If the fridge is floating and the milk is screaming,
(Who you gonna call? Not the health department!)
We've got unlicensed tech and a van that barely starts,
Chasing down the phantoms while the engine falls apart.

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't look at the beams, don't touch the slime,
We're overcharging you and wasting your time!
The meter is spiking, the spirits are bold,
But we already spent your deposit on the ride!

[Chorus]
WE'RE THE GHOST SWEEPERS, CLEARING THE ROOM,
WITH A VACUUM CLEANER AND A SENSE OF DOOM!
IF IT'S GLOWING GREEN OR IT'S SCREAMING LOUD,
WE'LL HIDE IN THE BACK AND BLEND WITH THE CROWD!
GHOST SWEEPERS! (WE DON'T KNOW WHAT WE'RE DOING!)

[Verse 2]
An ancient Sumerian god is in your kitchen sink,
He's demanding a sacrifice or maybe just a drink.
We've got a proton pack made of duct tape and spite,
And we're definitely not staying through the middle of the night!
Sorry about the wallpaper, sorry about the cat,
We didn't expect the ghost to look like that!

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't look at the beams, don't touch the slime,
We're overcharging you and wasting your time!
The meter is spiking, the spirits are bold,
Your safety waiver’s probably not airtight!

[Bridge]
"Listen... do you smell that?
It's not ectoplasm. It's the smell of a lawsuit.
Cross the streams? Buddy, I can't even cross the street without a panic attack."

[Final Chorus]
WE'RE THE GHOST SWEEPERS, TAKING THE FEE,
WHILE THE PHANTOMS ARE RUNNING COMPLETELY FREE!
NO JOB IS TOO BIG, NO FEE IS TOO SMALL,
WE'RE THE LAST ONES ON EARTH YOU SHOULD EVER CALL!
GHOST SWEEPERS! (I THINK I'M GONNA BE SICK!)

[Outro]
Uh, yeah, the marshmallow man is actually just a guy in a suit. Please stop screaming.
