one hallowe'en - charles strouse lyrics
[eve]
remember that halloween when you were nine?
you wore a fairy queen costume of your own design
(spoken)
well, look at you now
(sung)
and you put on rouge and lipstick, though it wasn’t allowed
you were so proud
and daddy said “wash your face
you look like a wh-r-”
that’s what he said
no more
and so you went up stairs
washed your face
took off your dress
threw it away
got into bed
as though it were the end of an ordinary day
and outside the moon continued to shine
remember that halloween when you were nine?
(spoken)
well, d-mn you, daddy!
look at your little girl now!
she feels twitchy!
and b-tchy!
and manic!
(sung)
calm and collected
no sign of panic
she’s alive, she’s alive, so alive!
i’m wound up like a spring that’s been tightened
dreamy and dizzy, but not a bit frightened
i’m alive, i’m alive, so alive!
everybody loves the winner
but n-body loves the flop
no one worries how you got there
once you’re standing on the top
so i feel up and together and steady
eager, excited, so come on i’m ready
ready for the climb
baby it’s my time
you believe it!
i’m alive!
alive!
