Lyrics for Halloween Parade by LOU REED:
| | | Artist: | LOU REED |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Halloween Parade | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 72 | | | | Lyrics: | There's a down town fairy singing out "Proud Mary"
as she cruises Christopher Street
And
some Southern Queen is acting loud and mean
where the docks and the Badlands meet
This
Halloween is something to be sure
Especially to be here without you
There's a Greta
Garbo and an Alfred Hitchcock
and some black Jamaican stud
There's five Cinderellas and some
leather drags
I almost fell into my mug
There's a Crawford, Davis and a tacky Cary
Grant
And some Homeboys lookin' for trouble down here from the Bronx
But there ain't no
Hairy and no Virgin Mary
you won't hear those voices again
And Johnny Rio and Rotten
Rita
you'll never see those faces again
This Halloween is something to be
sure
Especially to be here without you
There's the Born Again Losers and the Lavender
Boozers
and some crack team from Washington Heights
The boys from Avenue B and the girls
from Avenue D
a Tinkerbell in tights
This celebration somehow get me
down
Especially when I see you're not around
There's no Peter Pedantic saying things
romantic
In Latin, Greek or Spic
There's no Three bananas or Brandy Alexander
Dishing
all their tricks
It's a different feeling that I have today
Especially when I know
you've gone away
There's a girl from Soho with a teeshirt saying "I Blow"
She's with
the "jive five 2 plus 3"
And the girls for pay dates are giving cut rates
Or else doing it
for free
The past keeps knock knock knocking on my door
And I don't want to hear it
anymore
No consolations please for feelin' funky
I got to get my head above my
knees
But it makes me mad and mad makes me sad
