Halloween Parade
Testo Halloween Parade - Lou Reed
Testo della canzone Halloween Parade (Lou Reed), tratta dall'album New York
There's a downtown fairy singing out "Proud Mary"
As she cruises Christopher Street
And some Southern Queen is acting loud and mean
Where the docks and the badlands meet
This Halloween is something to be sure
Especially to be here without you
There's a Greta Garbo and an Alfred Hitchcock
And some black Jamaican stud
There's five Cinderellas and some leather drags
I almost fell into my mug
There's a Crawford, Davis, and a tacky Cary Grant
And some Homeboys lookin' for trouble down here from the Bronx
But there ain't no Harry and no Virgin Mary
You won't hear those voices again
And Johnny Rio and Rotten Rita
You'll never see those faces again
This Halloween is something to be sure
Especially to be here without you
There's the Born Again Losers and the Lavender Boozers
And some crack team from Washington Heights
The boys from Avenue B, the girls from Avenue D
A Tinkerbell in tights
This celebration somehow gets me down
Especially when I see you're not around
There's no Peter Pedantic saying things romantic
In Latin, Greek, or Spic
There's no Three Bananas or Brandy Alexander
Dishing all their tricks
It's a different feeling that I have today
Especially when I know you've gone away
There's a girl from Soho with a T-shirt saying "I Blow"
She's with the "Jive Five, Two Plus Three"
And the girls for pay dates are giving cut rates
Or else doing it for free
The past keeps knock, knock, knocking on my door
And I don't want to hear it anymore
No consolations, please for feelin' funky
I gotta get my head above my knees
But it makes me mad and that makes me sad
And then I start to freeze
In the back of my mind, I was afraid it might be true
In the back of my mind, I was afraid that they meant you
The Halloween Parade (Halloween Parade)
At the Halloween Parade (wa-wa-hoo, Halloween Parade)
At the Halloween Parade (wa-wa-hoo, Halloween Parade)
See you next year at the Halloween Parade (wa-wa-hoo, Halloween Parade)
Wa-wa-hoo, Halloween Parade
Wa-wa-hoo, Halloween Parade
Wa-wa-hoo, Halloween Parade
Wa-wa-hoo, Halloween Parade
