We Believe in Happy Endings


She’s a monster, she’s gorgeous,
He is well fit, my fur is wet.
I’m so happy I’m going to throw up,
I’m going to kick your head in!
We believe in happy endings.

At the party, humans, animals and other-worldly beings dance the night away.

At the party, humans, animals and ‘other-worldly’ beings dance the night away.
She’s a monster, she is gorgeous,
He is well fit, my fur is wet.
I’m so happy I’m going to throw up,
I’m going to kick your head in!
We believe in happy endings.
Humans indulge in excess and happy party people metamorphose into their more sinister animal alter egos until, reborn, they start the process all over again (and again)! A lifetime in a night time unfolds under the light of the moon-like mirrorball.
