Glenn Shadix Tribute

We Sing Day-O,  a Glenn Shadix tribute poem

-------------------------------------------

This man was not that well known.
But you most certainly know him.
You most certainly know him well.
As you all probably do.

Dear ol Glenn.
He was so full of life.
A very bright and cheery soul.
Underrated but talented.

He was an interior designer.
And the mayor of Halloween town.
But he'll always be remembered.
As who he was..
The great Glenn Shadix.

On this day-o.
We all say day-o!
Because.
Daylight come and Glenn has gone home.

There was a lot to like about him.
He was not only a good actor.
But a photographer as well.
And all around fun-loving guy.

It was hard not to like him.
After all..he was such a kind-man.
With a terrific sense of humor.
No wonder Tim Burton liked him.

We all sing the Banana Boat song.
On this day.
To honor him.
Because this song was played at his memorial.

5ft, 6'ft..7ft, 8ft - bunch.
This is for the man who brought us Otho.
And the Mayor of Halloweentown.
Among many other roles.
The man they called Glenn.

So on this day-o.
We say 'Daay-ooo!'
In honor of Glenn, oh.
Daylight's come..Glenn has gone home.
