Welcome my children come in, take a seat,
And never you mind all those snakes at your feet,
Or the cobwebs that cling to the ceiling and walls,
Or the bats in the eaves, or the rats in the hall.
I’ve gathered you ‘cause I’ve a few tales to tell,
But do not expect they should end very well.
I hope you don’t mind if I turn out this light,
For the stories I know are much better at night.
Please don’t be spooked, you’ve nothing to fear,
These are but verses, just words, my dear.
But if my tales are all fiction and none of it true,
Then what is that thing standing right…behind…you?

It’s Halloween, where is everyone?
We should be partying and having fun
Not this year, no Monster Mash
but everyone loves it, It’s a graveyard smash
Halloween’s the one night a year
The three of us can go out without any fear
Where will we go? Out in the streets?
Yes! This is the year we monsters Trick or Treat
Trick or Treat, The monsters trick or treat
Give us something sweet, The monster’s trick or treat
“Trick or Treat?”
We’re still too scary, we should go home
I hear the Wolf-Man’s in the graveyard, digging up bones
Nonesense! We just need to try another door
Like this one? I bet they have candy galore
Chorus
Hey look! There’s the Creature, the Mummy and the Hag
They’ve all got candy stuffed in their bags
How did you do it? What was your trick?
I cast a spell upon them them to make them think we're just kids

Lightning snaps the hangman's sleep
Been disassembled piece-by-piece
And stitched into a monster of a man
Now I can't tell what parts are mine
And this world is so unkind
I never asked to live this life again
Hate living, love dead
I paid the price for the life I led
Hate living, love dead
Black madness in my head
Hate living, love dead
Haunted by the blood I've shed
Hate living, love dead, yeah
Floating flowers, sinking curls
I'm really sorry about that girl
It's not my fault, I've got a rotten mind
Torches crackle through the night
Pitchforks pierce and hellhounds bite
Jokes on them I don't think that I can die
Hate living, love dead
I paid the price for the life I led
Hate living, love dead
Rejected by my newlywed
Hate living, love dead
Haunted by the blood I've shed
Hate living, love dead, yeah
Hate living, love dead
I paid the price for the life I led
Hate living, love dead
Black madness in my head
Hate living, love dead
Haunted by the blood I've shed
Hate living, love dead, yeah
Hate living, love dead
I paid the price for the life I led
Hate living, love dead
Rejected by my newlywed
Hate living, love dead
Haunted by the blood I've shed
Hate living, love dead, yeah

Late, late at night, she creeps in bed
And says give me love, give me blood, give me head
I quiver and I quake down in my bones
I got no will left, she’s in control
They say she’s gonna be the death of me
But being dead is all I ever wanted to be
She’s the hottest damn thing you ever did see
She’s my sweet, evil dream, my Halloween Queen
She cuts and she kisses and she claws and she bites
And she makes me bow down on Halloween night
She gets her powers when the cold winds blow
And the black cats cry and the old gods moan
Wrapped up tight in her cold, black wings
I run when she calls and cum when she sings
She’s the hottest damn thing you ever did see
She’s my sweet, evil dream, my Halloween Queen
My Halloween Queen, she’s my everything
With lips that burn and eyes that sting
When the dead start dancing and the demons sing
She’s the Queen of Halloween
Summer’s long gone, winter’s a dream
In your arms every night is Halloween
Soaring on the edge of endless night
When the full moon glows and the owls take flight
Bonfires burning while the bodies swing
Take my soul away from these living things
She’s the hottest damn thing you ever seen
She’s my sweet, evil dream, my Halloween Queen

We were just kids, having fun
Smoking grass in the summer sun
Maybe having a beer or two
A skinny dip, a daylight screw
Looking forward to sunny days
Dancing and singing our cares away
None of us would ever dream that we would die this way
Then Little Peetie Jergins set upon us
Claiming bloody vengeance with his blade
We never stood a chance against his undead rage
The night of the Terror at Blood Lake
A summer camp once graced this shore
But it was closed forevermore
When Peetie Jergins burned alive
While the counselors tried to score
Now his undead spirit walks
Through these woods and down the docks
Hacking nubile bodies into bloody chunks of gore
Maryanne was gutted with a hunting knife
And Billy took a hatchet to the face
And Robin’s broken body was wrapped around an old oak tree
The night of the Terror at Blood Lake
Somehow, I survived that night
I wouldn’t go without a fight
I pulled the pitchfork from Sally’s breast
And ran it clean through Peetie’s chest
Doused his body with kerosene
Lit a match, you should have seen
The way that Peetie kicked and screamed as the shed went up in flames
Now a little bit of Peetie lives inside me
There’s a shadow on my soul I just can’t shake
When the darkness overcomes me, I slip on Peetie’s mask
And become, the terror at blood lake
Yeah, I’m the terror at Blood Lake

With bulbous red noses and oversized shoes,
The Clowns are coming, (group chant)
The Clowns are coming.(group chant)
Wild-eyed grins and giant hands too,
The Clowns are coming,
The Clowns are coming.
Calliope music that thunders and shrieks
The Clowns are coming,
The Clowns are coming.
Under that make-up they’re hideous freaks
The Clowns are coming,
The Clowns are coming.
With maniacal laughter and hair so bizarre,
Far too many of them are in that small car,
Don’t bother hiding, they know where you are.
The Clowns are coming,
The Clowns are coming.

What’s the matter boy, are you afraid?
Go ahead and try to run away
‘cause you look like a tasty treat
And let me tell ya… I can EAT
Trust me when I say I bite
Cause the full moon is coming out tonight
And I’M THE WOLF! Yeah baby I’M THE WOLF! Aaaaah-oooooooooooh!
There’s a beast behind these eyes
And a hunger that’s never satisfied
I know the evil you can do
And I’ve broken bigger men than you
Flashing fangs in a bloody grin
“All the better to eat you with”
Cause I’M THE WOLF! Yeah, baby I’M THE WOLF! Aaaaah-oooooooooh!
I’m the wolf, hear me howl
Feel my claws and fear my growl
I’m the wolf, look at me
Cause I’m the last thing that you’re ever gonna see
Even a girl who’s pure at heart
And says her prayers by night
Can become a wolf when the wolfbane blooms
And the autumn moon is bright
Burning lust, undying thirst
A slave to the night, in love with the curse
Cause I’M THE WOLF! Yeah, baby I’M THE WOLF
Hooo-yeah I’M THE WOLF! Run, run, run from THE WOLF! Aaaaah-ooooooooh!

In the house, in the house, in the old dark house
It's where they left me
Alone but never lonely (the spirits!)
In the house, in the house, in the old dark house
Eyes were always on me
Whispers of the dead, telling me I'm home
And it's so very cold in here
Cold as the tomb in here
End everyone's dead in here
And the old dark house won't let me go
In the house, in the house, in the old dark house
My spirit is damned to wander
In the house, in the house, in the old dark house
Is where I surrendered to it all...and tumbled in the dark
And it's so very cold in here
Cold as the tomb in here
End everything's dead in here
And the old dark house won't let me go
(I'll never leave this place)

It came from outer space
I saw it glowing red
I poked it with a stick
Now its in my head
It came from outer space,
Thought it was a dream
It took my father's place
Now it's gotta feed
I'm tellin' you man that this thing's so terrible to look upon that a single glance can drive you mad with terror
So if you hear it coming run, run, run, run!
It came from outer space
Free from its icy tomb
Now there's nowhere to hide
From its cosmic doom

You can poison mother’s brain, and make the writer go insane
And dance across the astral plane, when you’re one of the dead
You can float across the room, forever shroud the house in gloom
Or warn them of impending doom, when you’re one of the dead
If a family buys a house constructed on a graveyard
You can suck their daughter through the television
You can make your legend grow, through a haunted video
Or become a murderous crow, when you’re one of the dead
You can rise up from the grave and stab your mother with a spade
And feast upon her guts and brains, when you’re one of the dead
You can crash a London pub, and learn a thing or two from Bub
And sometimes maybe even run, when you’re one of the dead
When we rise together they will call it Armageddon
And our numbers grow with everyone we slaughter
You can punish everyone for everything they’ve ever done
Or even be a spooky nun, when you’re one of the dead
You can put ‘em in a trance and make the dinner party dance
Or have a very goth romance, when you’re one of the dead
You can travel in a hearse, or be a pharoh’s undead curse
Or chop the head clean off a nurse, when you’re one of the dead
No matter how you run and hide, we will come to get you
You can never win so why not just surrender?
Fall into our dark embrace, and give up on this human race
Look into our Grim Grinning Face! Now you’re one of the dead,
Now you’re’ one of the dead
Now you’re one of the dead!

Anticipation gets the best of me
Waiting for the terror to leap off the screen
Here at the drive-in on a hot summer night
None of us will ever see the morning light
We'll all be cut down in the prime of life
There's no forgiveness 'cause the devil's at the drive-in tonight
We'll never get out alive
The devil's at the drive-in tonight
We'll never get out alive
Blood on the dashboard, blood on the seats
I feel the lifeblood draining out of me
Dark incantations opened up that seal
Now demon armies fight us in the final reel
What kind of evil lives behind those eyes
Hell's come to meet us cause the devil's at the drive-in tonight
We'll never get out alive
The devil's at the drive-in tonight
We'll never get out alive
We'll lose our souls here in the golden light
Of hellfire on the scree cause the devil's at the drive in tonight

I’m gonna have a nightmare, tortured sleep will come tonight,
I’m gonna have a nightmare; I’ve surrendered to my plight.
Visions dark and frightening will thunder through my dreams,
I’ll see ghosts and demons and skeletons that scream.
I stayed up late and watched the awesome creature double feature,
The one about the kids who were all eaten by their teacher.
And since I couldn’t sleep I grabbed an ancient book of verse,
And read of Elf-Kings, Ravens, Goblins, Trolls and much, much worse.
I’m gonna have a nightmare that chills me to my bones,
Of a tempest-torn sea-crossing and a date with Davey Jones.
I’ll dream of some dumb brute that looms behind me with an axe,
And a madman who entombs his prey in a shell of molten wax.
I’ll conjure up much darker things than you have ever known,
Like bugs that burrow under flesh and feast on living bone.
I’m gonna have a nightmare, and it’s gonna be a doozy,
A fantasy of all things creepy, crawly, pussy, oozy.
Monsters of all kinds chase me up stairways made of mud,
While vampires do backstrokes in swimming pools of blood.
And madness, oh sweet madness is the only happy ending,
As the fire licks my body whilst all my flesh is rending.
I’m gonna have a nightmare, this I know is true,
I’m gonna have a nightmare…
At least, I hope I do.

You and I were born to burn
Fire like blood in our veins
Now we're at the point of no return
Let's torch it all in his name
Come take my hand, follow me
I'll show you things you've never seen
The city's on fire and we're to blame
Come kiss me now in the flames
Candy-corn colors in the sky
It's almost Halloween
And I know with evil on our side
We can do anything
Come take my hand, follow me
I'll show you things you've never seen
The world's on fire and we're to blame
Come kiss me now in the flames

We're not who you think we are
No fallen angels of the morning star
Conjuring unholy power, Spilling blood in the devil's houe
You'll never live to know how wrong you are
We summon the darkness, profaning holy ground
We summon the darkness, heavy metal, devil-sound
We summon the darkness, in thrall with Satan's spell
We're gonna be the ones who drag your body straight to hell
The immoral majority
Can only see what they believe
Satanic panic in the streets, your religion is obsolete
No gods, no kings, no bended knee
We summon the darkness, profaning holy ground
We summon the darkness, heavy metal, Devil-sound
We summon the darkness, in thrall with Satan's spell
We're gonna be the ones who drag your body straight to hell
We summon the darkness (4xs)
We summon the darkness, profaning holy ground
We summon the darkness, heavy metal, devil-sound
We summon the darkness, in thrall with Satan's spell
We're gonna be the ones who drag your body straight to hell

When I'm dead and gone
I'll haunt you from beyond
And if you find someone
I'll make sure he runs
Wooooo
Don't forget my ghost, I ain't moving on
I'll be with you forever and ever
Don't forget my ghosts when I'm dead and gone
I'll be with you forever
Is this how it goes?
I've never died before
So why'd you pull that gun?
I thought you were the one
Wooohooohooo
Don't forget my ghost, I ain't moving on
I'll be with you forever and ever
Don't forget my ghosts when I'm dead and gone
I'll be with you forever
Don't forget my ghost, I'm not moving on
I'll be with you forever and ever
Don't forget my ghosts now I'm dead and gone
I'll be with you forever
When I'm dead and gone
I'll haunt you from beyond
