Looking into Things

"Which one of us was here before?"

a two-faced person asks himself.

One face sees you walk through the door.

The other looks at someone else.

The tall dark hostess in her cape

says she's so glad you could attend

as she gives you a quick embrace

and plants a small bite on your neck.

The party's just starting to swing

not quite the way you were expecting.

If you're playing smart you might want to start

looking into things.

The closet door swings open there.

Out steps a skeleton who grins.

He says he's got nothing to wear

and asks you to give him some skin.

The party's just starting to swing

not quite the way you were expecting.

If you give a fart maybe you should start

looking into things.

A white-coat doctor mixes drinks

in clear glass beakers, flasks and tubes.

His lightning flashes make you blink

as he makes a wicked, bubbly brew.

Holding his head in his hands

a horseman stumbles around the room.

One hairy fellow is so smashed

he takes to howling at the moon.

The party's just starting to swing

not quite the way you were expecting.

It shouldn't be too hard to turn around and start

looking into things.
