Witches' Night Lyrics - Judybats

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
