When you wish upon a star... / X-Masquerade

"They broke an old tradition, because the new

millennium rearranged a celebration they all

enjoyed, yet there´s a costume contest

Who´d draw the ace this christmasquerade

remained mysterious best disguise would be

announced when the clock strikes twelve and

then dis-masque at midnight. Roll out the

blood-red carpet, champagne and cheers and

fireworks, very soon we reach the climax,

count-down begins drum-roll! And the winner is...

that man disguised as the Devil himself

The red horn-clad demon complete with tail

and cloven hoof devil-man you´re so authentic,

all shouted; reveal yourself! They had their life´s

surprise there... or should I say their death´s

Half-drowned, had drained a vineyard, One still

pronounced unwillingness as they tried to strip

the winner all hell broke loose! He´d crush the

crystal ballroom... chandeliers fell into a flaming

inferno the old mansion burnt to the ground on the

very first day of the year 2000, preview to a new

hellenium, all the ninety party-goers is but a

charred memorium, all ninety... all except One"
