you took the toaster when you went you never paid your half the rent you took the spices from the rack but you don t have to put them back cause in your haste on halloween you left your camera on the bed where we played roles in black and white you left a roll of black and white i set the timer and thought of you and put the lens up to my head i took a photograph for you what comes out gray is really red so are you happy now are you happy now are you happy now i smashed your pumpkin on the floor the candle flickered at my feet as goblins flew across the moon the children peered into the room a cowboy shivered on the porch as cinderella checked her watch a hobo waited in the street an angel whispered trick or treat but what was i supposed to do but to sit there in the dark i was amazed to think that you could take the candy with you too are you happy now are you happy now are you happy now i ve sat all night and now it s dawn and i cannot believe my eyes there s garbage strewn across the lawn where we once stared up at the sky and streams of paper fill the tree that hovered over you and me shaving cream covers the car that we picked up in baltimore though i know it s hard to tell i hope that what s his name treats you well i still maintain that he s a bum but it s your money have some fun  and are you happy now are you happy now are you happy now you always asked why i had not written you a verse or two since that s the one thing i regret i dedicate this one to you are you happy now are you happy now are you happy now are you
