An odd, unusual song that I really have no good description for.
lyrics
Many are dressed as zombies and ghosts
Some may be demons with fires that roast
Others are icons from pop culture of today
Hidden among the walking forms of decay
Some costumes are meant to confuse
Others are made to leave people amused
And then there are those destined to cause fear
Tell me, what are YOU going to be this year?
Driving through a neighborhood full of kids,
Dreaming of the things I wanna be.
I don't have costume ideas in mind right now,
I just wanna be free.
And I won't be helping kids get tummy aches
Or making dentists deal with cavities
Instead I'm feeding all the hungry adults
With dough, sauce, pepperoni, and cheese.
And the adults expect some speed
Which is impossible when kids run right out into the street
And I have to not make a bloody mess
But yet still feed the stay-at-home candy passer outers,
trying to do so in thirty minutes or less
My halloween costume is a pizza man,
But that's not by my choice
Nor is it that of any employee,
But our sales have the bigger voice
But I'd hate to think of how it would go down
If someone walked the neighborhood in their town
In a pizza man costume by their own free will,
Oh, I can imagine the scenarios now...
"Hello sir! I like your costume!
Do you perhaps want to trade?"
"I don't actually have pizza on me, I'm just a trick-or-treater"
"Well, I didn't wanna give you candy anyway!"
"Daddy, daddy, it's a pizza man!
Do they have pizzas with candy bars?"
"He doesn't look legit, I really wouldn't trust him,
Not with 'free pizza' written on the side of his car!"
"I want a pizza now! AND all this candy!
I'll eat it all in a day!"
"It's one or the other, and in small doses,
Your health comes first, sorry to say."
"I'll make a candy pizza then, cookies on the bottom,
Topped with nerds and runts!
OH! Also some chiclets, Ooh, and these tootsie rolls!"
"How many trips to the dentist do you want?" ("Waaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh...")
My halloween costume is a pizza man,
But that's not by my choice
Though it might be fun to mess with people's heads,
My conscience has the bigger voice
I'm stuck with this fate all night long
While imagining ways it can go oh so wrong
Good thing I have no need to make this all real
But oh, let me go home now!
