Halloween is signal I received in France

watching all the traffic going by

your hair is done in sequins you wear leather pants

soldiers at the crossroads wave goodbye



chorus

it’s already over in October

already Christmas every year

it’s always good to sing when you are sober

it’s always good to wipe away the tears



sometimes I think we'll all go up in smoke

owing that the passage is not clear

there is a man who probably will choke

on the words that sound so violently sincere

chorus



there was a woman wore my ring upon her hand

warning me to judge the way I feel

right on surface of everything I planned

she cut to deep to ever really heal

chorus

I see you I'll nod to some passing face of God

who never really answer me at prayer

the savior is quite odd he prefers the prod

his kingdom is near but the thin air
