Before i close the chapter to these names
only god knows how much i want to love them
as i am
and now
i just dont care if my friends would say
until the whispering wind follows me
and say
you are cowardly running away from the reality
because that is all i see
as a way out
and i know how wicked it is
i dont care if the nowhere's night
needles of 13 degree celcius
would poke me into the core
and seize all painlessness
i dont care if its winter
would **** my soul with its negative
i wont moan
if i cant find my favorite mist of morning breeze
maybe i'll just find another kind of suffocation there
i wont be wearing my favourite blouse in the lace
but just a plain sweater instead
i wont moan
i promise myself i wont
nothing else than i could wish
please just grant my wish
that no one from my past remember me
cause in this small town
id rather fade away from minds
so the frets and laughs of us
wouldnt collide
as the way you hate it so much

There's a party going on upstairs,
your invited, to come and have a scare.
H.G. Wells, will meet you at the gate,
costumes required, hurry don't be late.

Vincent Price will be tonights D.J.
Halloween is his favorite Holiday.
He's spinning "Thriller", while dressed up as "Kiss".
Watching Claude Rains do the "Transylvania Twist".

Steve McQueen came dressed up as the "Blob",
he's serving up the zombie shish-ka-bobs.
Elsa Lanchester placed real bats within her hair.
While Marty Feldman keeps yelling "Frau Blucher".

At the stroke of the witching hour,
St. Peter amps up all the power.
A disco ball drops down from a cloud.
Out on the dance floor, forms a massive crowd.

Michael Jackson then leads them all in dance,
while Lon Chaney and Karloff take their chance,
to join the angels in harmony,
While "Monster Mash" is sang by Lugosi.

Even the Devil made it through the door.
He's the one sporting an Elvis pompadour.
So much fun is had by one and all,
at Heavens Annual Halloween Ball

yes, I know; I wished for a homely girl,
I really did, thinking pretty girls were just
too common; what was I thinking; the girl at
my door is one of the ugliest I've ever seen
& she insists on coming in; that wouldn't
be a problem but typically ugly women have
ugly personalities & she's got the personality
of the bride of Frankenstein, & not cool like
Elsa Lanchester, just the scrambled eggs
for brains & I play along w/ this all b/c I have
a soft spot for ugly girls; I need to stop not
looking at girls faces; I mean, if I can't stand
to look them in the face that should tell me something;
meeting someone that ugly is like finding a rare
gem of no value at all; pretty girls must hate themselves
enough for every ugly girl to be stuck on herself;
I'd like to return this wish, not for a refund
but an exchange; I've had my eye on a cute college kid
I was thinking of Laurel and Hardy
the boys from the Bowery
'Angels with ***** faces'
Cagney and grapefruit,
Keaton and clocks
Chaplin's odd socks
Arbuckle and Huckleberry
Roy Rogers,
Tom Mix
Hollywoodland
out in the sticks,

Lanchester, Pickford,
Gish ( I wish )
Bankhead and Bow
girls on the go
with their names up in lights,

I was thinking of Laurel and Hardy
but my mind wandered off.
