Dismemberment Plan - That's When the Party Started lyrics

Fourteen feet tall, and gla**y and pale, and covered in soot I don't know who he was or what he was, the question was moot I laid in bed, too scared to speak, and watched him watch me There was no sound but the crickets outside and the leaves in the breeze, oh He lit a cigarette and said, "Your chimney's a b**h." I said, "Are you old Santa Claus?" And he said, "You wish," yeah yeah yeah yeah That's when the party started as far as I know I grabbed a hold of it and never let go And if I saw it well then maybe it's so Oh, whoa, etc... Later that year, I swear to god, it happened again, oh I was out camping with my baby and a couple of friends, oh As we fell asleep I know I saw a light in the east, oh Spinning around and changing colors with a weird humming sound, oh As it got close I felt my sleeping bag rise from the ground, oh When I woke up I was yards from the fire Eyes swollen shut, and buried to my waist That's when the party started as far as I know I grabbed a hold of it and never let go And if I saw it well then maybe it's so Oh, whoa, etc... I know I know I know I know I saw him again I was out walking my dog and he followed me home, oh Fourteen feet fall, a pinstripe suit and the same weird shadow, oh He was outside for several weeks and then he vanished again, oh I really don't know what to think after twenty-three years The only real thing I ever learned is: Maybe it is, if it has so appeared That's when the party started-- I grabbed a hold of it and-- And if I saw it well, then... Oh, whoa, etc...
