Eels

Strolling down the green path way
With my fellow invalids
Halloween party tonight
In the women's gym

Saturday night at the dance
I'd ask you if I ? (sounds like "dance")

Men's ward wants me back
By ten, ? (sounds like "not far")
Take down your half mask and I"ll
See who you are

At three o'clock this morning
Look through the glass
I'll blink the floor lights on and off
Like ships that pass
