Track Insight / Lyrics

Taxi idles at the corner light Meter dead on Halloween night Rain slicks down the cobblestone Cat walks where the ghosts have gone Black cat prowls the wet slate roof October wind bears witch's proof Moon hangs pale as bone and tooth Halloween sings its ancient truth Thirty years of October skies Read the omens, read the signs Black fur flashes on silent tread Wet slate sings beneath its bed Black cat prowls the wet slate roof October wind bears witch's proof Moon hangs pale as bone and tooth Halloween sings its ancient truth Fares pay double for the ride When the veil is stretched so wide Old driver mutters, lights his smoke Knows the cat's no mortal joke Steering wheel grows cold as bone Radio picks up only moan Clock strikes midnight, engine coughs Cat disappears in ancient lofts Morning comes on gray deceit Pavement dry beneath my feet Meter clicks, the city wakes But the cat's path no map can trace Black cat prowls the wet slate roof October wind bears witch's proof Moon hangs pale as bone and tooth Halloween sings its ancient truth Another fare, another street Halloween's rhythm, slow and sweet Keep the change, the driver says Cat rules the night on rooftop slate Black cat prowls the wet slate roof October wind bears witch's proof Moon hangs pale as bone and tooth Halloween sings its ancient truth Wet slate glistens, dawn breaks through Black cat watches, watching you
