Hello Laughing Crow
Hello, it's me
I'm listening to Adele, numbing my courage to speak
Hello, it's me
I've been outside, knocking on your door since 3 with these uncomfortable boots upon my feet
Hello, can you hear me
I just want to cut you into pieces while throwing roses at your feet
Hello, open the door please
Or I will break this door down and laugh amusingly as I hear you scream
Hello, don't enrage me
Do you like the color red, if not then you're gonna need to call the painters
Or maybe just Ted, we all know he watches you sleep from the trees anyway
But hello hello hello, yellow
The color of the fluid running down his pants as I broke his leg, filled the wound with fire ants
Ha ants in his pants
Shut up Adele, this is my show now
So hello goodbye as I break the door from it's hinges
HEY MISSES, THE DOOR WAS OPEN SO I JUST LET MYSELF IN!
Cleaver in hand, I run up and down all the hallways and rooms
Flip on the lights and realize this is my own domicile
Heh guess I really am certifiable
Said the screen badly, terribly
Stared stunned and out of breath from laughing
The daughter dressed for a party, a simple yet beautiful cat said in exclamation:
"This is what you made me stay home for
I could be owning the night
Scaring people in fright
Obeying my right to dance til the night ends
Why did you make me stay in this airspace so tight?"
And with a heartbroken look, her mother asked quietly, "dont you like spending time with me?"
Her daughter looked incredulous, like she's been punched in the stomach
Like her mother told her a blatant lie and tried to spin it as truth
The daughter in her cat-like glory hugged her mom tight
And said, "of course I do, silly mother goose
I love you more than anything, I love our quality time
Making fun of bad movies are the best moments I've had with you and I will always look to make them last
But can this wait till Christmas or Thanksgiving, allow me to be a kid and hang out with my partners in blissful crime."
And it was then, the silence from outside the house that shook the atmosphere with intrigue and dread in a single breath
"Hello, it's me
I've been to listening to Adele, numbing my courage to speak
But if you would be so kind to open up the door, I really have to pee
Jenny? Hello, can you hear me
Don't be scared, it's only me, Carrie
Please open up, I'm about to spring a leak
Jenny with her mom in tow
Brooms and bats as backup
Slowly open the door, ready to sprout a defense
And in steps a 5'2 Bunny Harley Quinn, with an ax in her back smiling singing Happy Halloween
