Happy Halloween!

lyrics

oh mrs henry
don't turn out your light
all of your woodrows
are staying here tonight

and all the times you fell apart
while stuck inside your home
and even if you were to start
all you have is flesh and bone

oh mrs henry
your voice is dead and gone
so now your victrola
is all that you keep on

and all those nights you spend alone
are stamped in rpms
the fires out, the bulbs have blown
the darkness never ends

honestly you'll never be quite happy on the shelf
you'll be good for someone else but not for me
honestly i'll never be quite happy with myself
i'll take what i can get and then i'll leave

and you will not see me

oh mrs henry
clap twice if you're alive
the floors and the ceiling
have you buried inside

and all the weight of mansion walls
break bones beneath your bed
there's no more time to walk these halls
mrs henry are you dead?

oh mrs henry
please let me know tonight
if all is in order
you sure gave us a fright
