She's making ghosts
She's so happy
Ballroom dancing
Spinning
Falling ghosts
Real ghosts
Lonely or forever
Real ghosts
Didn't ask to be
All her goodness
All her goodness
Pray she doesn't make you
Pray she doesn't
Or anyone you know
Carnival worker
Presidents
Sacajawea
Show jumper
A television clown
Madam Curie
Ballerinas, she's crazy about ballerinas
She's so happy
Ballroom dancing
Spinning
Falling ghosts
Real ghosts
Lonely or forever
Real ghosts
Didn't ask to be
All her goodness
Pray she doesn't make you
Pray she doesn't
Or anyone you know
Presidents
Sacajawea
Show jumper
A television clown
Ballerinas, she's crazy about ballerinas

Albini explains here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xp5I0j4ejBw) that the song is about a little girl who has the ability to create ghosts. It doesn't work if you are alive. But if you are in your grave, in your final rest, then, suddenly, she can turn you into a ghost, and you will be an unsettled soul wandering the earth, forever. For eternity.
And it's really creepy because it's a little girl who is doing it. As if she is playing, turning people into ghosts.
"This song is about effigies."
