Convenience is the devil's tongue
Honesty it's the devil's foreplay
Circus folk you say, time to slip away
It seems I've played this scene before you know and
Anything could happen

The night before the day of the dead
Boys and girls they've always said
"Arbor days, look forward to them"
Arbor days, cherish them
Though our parents' parents and our parents' friends always say
"Arbor days, deny them"
Our children's children and our children's friends
Sipping chocolate on the day of the dead

Confusion is the devil's cool
True love it's the devil's crowbar
A party you say, well I might stay
I'd love to make the scene
'cause you know anything could happen

The day after the day of the dead
Boys and girls, they've always said
"Arbor days look forward to them"
Arbor days, cherish them
Though our parents' parents and our parents' friends always say
"Arbor days, deny them"
