Late Arrivals

Sorry for the late arrival... We shouldn't show How I've now become the rival Of your current beau It was cunning it crept up on us Whatever it was, well, it sure wasn't honest Our Halloween eyes, transparent disguise Were almost comical Nominal Unillogical I opened your gown And we fell straight down Into a sordid state You said don't tell I was under your spell We arrived so late You said please don't choke When we got to the joke Of our late arrival Make it plausible Unimprobable We picked up wine and whiskey That's why we were...slow... "Have you met my neighbor Marcy?" I haven't, no... When they judge the costume contest Your mask might slip but they won't notice regardless Can't he see you vanishing from the room right right Before his eyes Or did he minimize? He wasn't unhypnotized I followed you down Into the grounds of A sordid lake You said don't tell I was under your spell I never felt so fake It started out as a joke Until a fib was a cloak For our late arrival... Where'd you guys go? Somewhere for a lie low Your lies though... They were never too subtle ohhhh... It was just that he trusted us both It's not just perceptible It's regrettable Not unindefensible It's in our eyes...Christmas lights... Those telltale signs weren't invisible
