that´s when the party started þarký sözü

fourteen feet tall, and glassy and pale, and covered in soot
i don´t know who he was or what he was, the question was moot
i laid in bed, too scared to speak, and watched him watch me
there was no sound but the crickets outside and the leaves in the breeze, oh
he lit a cigarette and said, ¡°your chimney´s a bitch.¡±
i said, ¡°are you old santa claus?¡±
and he said, ¡°you wish,¡± yeah yeah yeah yeah
that´s when the party started as far as i know
i grabbed a hold of it and never let go
and if i saw it well then maybe it´s so
oh, whoa, etc¡
later that year, i swear to god, it happened again, oh
i was out camping with my baby and a couple of friends, oh
as we fell asleep i know i saw a light in the east, oh
spinning around and changing colors with a weird humming sound, oh
as it got close i felt my sleeping bag rise from the ground, oh
when we woke up i was yards from the fire
eyes swollen shut, and buried to my waist
that´s when the party started as far as i know
i grabbed a hold of it and never let go
and if i saw it well then maybe it´s so
oh, whoa, etc¡
i know i know i know i know i saw him again
i was out walking my dog and he followed me home, oh
fourteen feet fall, a pinstripe suit and the same weird shadow, oh
he was outside for several weeks and then he vanished again, oh
i really don´t know what to think after twenty-three years
the only real thing i ever learned is: maybe it is, if it has so appeared
that´s when the party started--
i grabbed a hold of it and--
and if i saw it well, then¡
oh, whoa, etc¡
