Blurt.media Radio - A Weird Waltz
I spilled my tea on the mirror
It answered me back with a grin
The cat on the shelf started praying
And the teacups began to spin
My auntie swore she saw a comet
Curl up and nap in the hall
Then a little blue hand on the wallpaper
Tapped out a waltz on the wall
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, it’s weird
Oh, it’s sweet
When the impossible
Picks up its feet
[Chorus]
Strange and unusual
That’s my delight
(oh yeah)
Ghost in the parlor
Dancing all night
(come on)
Strange and unusual
Kiss me goodbye
If the dead want to talk
I let them step by
[Verse 2]
The fortune-teller lost her ribbon
Then found it tied in my hair
A moon-faced stranger in a bowler
Swore he could vanish mid-stair
The radio hummed with a choir
Of voices that weren’t really there
And the accordion laughed in the doorway
Like it knew the punchline from air
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, it’s odd
Oh, it’s grand
When the hidden things
Take my hand
[Chorus]
Strange and unusual
That’s my delight
(oh yeah)
Ghost in the parlor
Dancing all night
(come on)
Strange and unusual
Kiss me goodbye
If the dead want to talk
I let them step by
[Bridge]
[Breakdown]
My crystal ball’s got a paper cut
My mirror blushes green
A whisper crossed my shoulder blade
Like a joke I’d never seen
Telepathy in a teacup
A moth in a wedding veil
The cellar door said, “Keep it quiet”
Then winked at the moonlight pale
[Final Chorus]
Strange and unusual
That’s my delight
(oh yeah)
Ghost in the parlor
Dancing all night
(come on)
Strange and unusual
I’m feeling alive
If the dead want to talk
I let them step by
[Outro]
So ring the bell and turn the key
Let the odd ones in tonight
The weird and the wonderful
Are twirling in the light
(are twirling in the light)
