Teeth ground sharp and eyes glowing red

Fingers like snakes and spiders in my hair

Round that corner, man hiding in the trash can
Something's waiting now to pounce, and how you'll

Scream! This is Halloween
Red 'n' black, slimy green

Well, that's just fine
Say it once, say it twice
Take the chance and roll the dice
Ride with the moon in the dead of night

Here in a flash and gone without a trace

Filling your dreams to the brim with fright

Skeleton Jack might catch you in the back
And scream like a banshee
Make you jump out of your skin
This is Halloween, everyone scream
Won't ya please make way for a very special guy

Our man Jack is king of the pumpkin patch
Everyone hail to the Pumpkin King now

Everyone:
This is Halloween, this is Halloween
Halloween! Halloween! Halloween! Halloween!

Corpse Child Trio:
In this town we call home
Everyone hail to the pumpkin song

Everyone:
La la-la la, Halloween! Halloween! (etc.)
