David Disher - Halloween

Danny's got a brand new monster mask
oh yeah, a pillow case full of trick or treats to ask
yeah, his brother's got some eggs and a tank of gas
couple cans of beer and a whiskey flask

Susie and her friends are gonna carve a pumpkin
maybe stay at home and see a film or somethin'
her boyfriend's got a stereo, the tunes are thumpin'
he wants to have a party, everybody jumpin yeah

H, A, double L, o, W, double E, N

Rising from the grave, every ghost and goblin
Creeping open every creepy crypt and coffin
Yeah, creeping up on everyone, yeah, no one saw them
Until they started reaching for their souls and got them
Everybody loves to think they’re safe and sound, yeah
But every Halloween, we’re gonna drag you down, yeah
Kicking and screaming, pulling you beneath the ground, yeah
When all the monsters come for you, you’ll never be found because it’s

H, A, double L, o, W, double E, N
And as night falls on the streets and houses
Every monster will rise from its tomb
To prowl the Earth, for blood they seek
To bring young souls to their doom

For one night each year, the spell is broken
Which binds each ghoul to its home
For on Hallow’s eve, in the darkest hour
The neighbourhoods, they will roam

But for one of the children, the time has come
To be stripped of mortal coil
For the touch of an ancient crypt-dweller
Brings their blood to a boil

So you’d better not be the last child on your street
To finish asking for tricks and treats
For that one last child who scurries home
Will be dragged intoto hell, all alone
