That delicate satin draped frame
As it clung to her thigh
How I started to cry
Coz I wanted to be dressed just the same

Funny you should mention "the woods", because that's where it was found, by someone walking their dog.

No you are not. Some actual content to the article would've improved it somewhat.

Something did strike me as odd, I wonder if Tim Burton had ever seen the cover image as it starlingly resembles the Lock, Shock and Barrel characters from Nightmare Before Christmas.
