Paroles de Michael Myers Resplendent

I am ready for my close up today

Too long I've let myself respect stand in my way

Well the prom queens caught in the high beams
And the strings keen it's a big scene



But when the house goes up in flames

No one emerges triumphantly from it

When the scum begins to circle the drain

Well everybody loves a winner



I spent eight hours in my make-up chair

Waxed my chest and shaved off all my hair

Well the fires bright and the frames tight
But when the house goes up in flames

No one emerges triumphantly from it

When the scum begins to circle the drain

Well everybody loves a winner
