Looking in the window
Of this empty house space
I see their reflections in my face
Every Thanksgiving
Mark made his all-male Thanksgiving dinner
Where men cooked the turkey
And men made the cranberry sauce
Without nuts, 'cause men don't like nuts
But the stuffing was manly
And the finger bowls ditto
And ditto the pureed sweet yams
Very manly
When Mark made his all-male Thanksgiving
Bill Sherwood was present
He wrote and directed Parting Glances
A movie for which Mark raised the money
In which Arthur invested
And the Thanksgiving crew put money into
Steve Buscemi was featured
His first time onscreen
And you knew you were watching a star
God, he was great
But he wasn't at Mark's all-male Thanksgiving
Remembering this is sort of like
Grandpa remembering his shtetl
It seems to take place so, so long ago
In the past, the memories last but fade
What a community we made
Diplomats, poets, opera guys
Guys dressed in leather britches
Some paunchy, some starting to bald
Some were awful and some were okay
In a non-threatening way
Mark the lawyer wore flannel
He comes from Wisconsin
The handsomest guy wore a tie
That was Arthur
Sweetly decent, funny and living
I met Arthur
When Mark made his all-male Thanksgiving
And the excellent movie
That Bill Sherwood filmed
Was his first and his last
Since alas, the boy passed
Arthur still, when he smiles
He makes my heart flutter
We think it's been twenty-two years
I wrote this song
To not forget Mark's all-male Thanksgiving
It's been so long
Since Mark made his all-male Thanksgiving
Where we gave thanks
Of this empty house space
I see their reflections in my face
Every Thanksgiving
Mark made his all-male Thanksgiving dinner
Where men cooked the turkey
And men made the cranberry sauce
Without nuts, 'cause men don't like nuts
But the stuffing was manly
And the finger bowls ditto
And ditto the pureed sweet yams
Very manly
When Mark made his all-male Thanksgiving
Bill Sherwood was present
He wrote and directed Parting Glances
A movie for which Mark raised the money
In which Arthur invested
And the Thanksgiving crew put money into
Steve Buscemi was featured
His first time onscreen
And you knew you were watching a star
God, he was great
But he wasn't at Mark's all-male Thanksgiving
Remembering this is sort of like
Grandpa remembering his shtetl
It seems to take place so, so long ago
In the past, the memories last but fade
What a community we made
Diplomats, poets, opera guys
Guys dressed in leather britches
Some paunchy, some starting to bald
Some were awful and some were okay
In a non-threatening way
Mark the lawyer wore flannel
He comes from Wisconsin
The handsomest guy wore a tie
That was Arthur
Sweetly decent, funny and living
I met Arthur
When Mark made his all-male Thanksgiving
And the excellent movie
That Bill Sherwood filmed
Was his first and his last
Since alas, the boy passed
Arthur still, when he smiles
He makes my heart flutter
We think it's been twenty-two years
I wrote this song
To not forget Mark's all-male Thanksgiving
It's been so long
Since Mark made his all-male Thanksgiving
Where we gave thanks
