Judybats Witches' Night
Scars on face Paper dolls Casting plastic shadows on plaster walls There is a red candle There is a refrain Did I hear that song somewhere before Or was it just plain This party is dreaming but I am awake To snooze another shot of gin For his sake CHORUS Witches' night Take me by disguise I should have dressed up for the sake of sore eyes Witches' night The harvest moon lies We all do Witches' night Out on the front porch Old mattresses lean As pitiful as the people that make this scene All used up, seamless, beyond repair I should have called a cab sixpacks ago When I had the fare Ellen parades her French lover Shannon is a hunchback and Shawn her mother A lot of prostitutes here, all rouge and fishnet stockings On call this year CHORUS Afloat on Barbara's waterbed My guise st down and cast a rippling spell I thought I would drown "Tell me lover, are you trick or treat I'm all mistrusting when things taste so sweet Tell me lover, are you trick or treat It's that I'm all mistrusting When things taste so sweet." CHORUS Kissed by Satan Embraced by a gnome All frog-legged and eye of newt I should go home The witching hour must be at hand 'cause I'm so in love I can barely stand The witching hour must be at hand 'cause I'm so in love I can barely stand Witches' night Take me by disguise Witches' night The lies we all tell -----------------------------------------------
