Rosalie

Rosalie was blonde Had a boyfriend named John She was sweet and she was kind But smart folks stayed on her good side 'Cause she was known from time to time To play jump rope with the crossed line One day she said"John, when I die If you dare move on, I'll haunt you for life" She thought her words would be Enough to deter him But he got with Marie And now she was certain Her unfinished business was to follow through She'd haunt his ass now that she had passed And get his girlfriend too She thought that he was being honest When he said"Babe, I promise" Maybe he forgot But you know who did not Rosalie Rosalie Every year on Halloween Has it out for Marie Rose put a bucket of cement Atop the front door (the front door) So when Marie walked through She'd fall to the floor (fall to the floor) But by some miracle the bucket missed her head (it missed her head) Then she laughed and thanked her stars That she wasn't dead Rosalie Rosalie Had to think of something else For next Halloween After a few years Rosalie felt less cold She said"huh, that's weird I'm no closer to my goal" But she didn't blink Continued plans as they were There was still one thing Of which she was sure Her unfinished business was to follow through She'd haunt his ass now that she had passed And get his girlfriend too She thought that he was being honest When he said"Babe, I promise" Maybe he forgot But you know who did not Rosalie Rosalie Every year on Halloween Has it out for Marie Rose dug a hole in the backyard Covered it with a tarp (a tarp) Hoped that she could count on Marie not being smart (she's not so smart) But by some miracle She only stepped on the edge (stepped on the edge) Then she laughed and thanked her stars That she wasn't dead Rosalie Rosalie Had to think of something else For next Halloween She had this gnawing feeling Said"no, I don't like that girl But if nothing else She's resilient as hell 'Kay she's not the worst in the world" Every time John made sure Marie was okay A little part of Rose's heart Had been warmed by the day But she convinced herself to stay on track So she planned this year's attack Rosalie Rosalie Every year on Halloween Has it out for Marie Rose stuck a twenty on a string To lure her into traffic (traffic) But just in time John grabbed her by the back of her jacket (thank God for jackets) This time it was Rose Who threw back her head (threw back her head) And she laughed and thanked her stars That Marie wasn't dead Rosalie Rosalie Had a feeling she wouldn't be Here next Halloween Her unfinished business was to move on Be happy that he's happy even though she's gone She had to let it go to get to the end And the end is where we are For Rosalie, her love, and her new friend
