Halloween, a la Tom Waits...

[wychlea]

This was inspired by the Tom Waits school of songwriting. :)
------------

Popcorn and candy canes,
Fishnets and garters,
M & M's and gummi bears,
Ecstasy and booze,

Cup cakes and licorice,
Lacey panties, leather whips,
Bubble gum and pixie sticks,
Coffee cake and lust.

Jumbo's Girls and cinnamon swirls,
Dollar bills and all the frills,
And bowls of Hershey's Kisses.

Lipstick and lemonade,
Pheromones and taffy,
Yukon Jack, Cracker Jacks,
And the lights turned low.

Catholic skirts and lollipops,
Bare breasts and Red Hots,
Candied apples and perfume,
Ice Cream and 'shrooms.

High heels and butterscotch,
Girls named Candy,
Halloween tricks for some,
Just as good as treats.
