well i live with snakes and lizards

and other things that go bump in the night

cos to me everyday is halloween

i have given up hiding and started to fight

i have started to fight



well any time, any place, anywhere that i go

all the people seem to stop and stare

they say 'why are you dressed like it's halloween?

you look so absurd, you look so obscene'



o, why can't i live a life for me?

why should i take the abuse that's served?

why can't they see they're just like me

it's the same, it's the same in the whole wide world



well i let their teeny minds think

that they're dealing with someone who is over the brink

and i dress this way just to keep them at bay

cos halloween is everyday

it's everyday



o, why can't i live a life for me?

why should i take the abuse that's served?

why can't they see they're just like me

it's the same, it's the same in the whole wide world



o, why can't i live a life for me?

why should i take the abuse that's served?

why can't they see they're just like me

i'm not the one that's so absurd



why hide it?

why fight it?

hurt feelings

best to stop feeling hurt

from denials, reprisals

it's the same it's the same in the whole wide world
