Dressing up in costumes, carving pumpkins This whole neighborhood will be jumping Ringing doorbells, asking for candy I love it when everything is spooky All I wanna do is trick or treat So let’s cruise these streets I’m looking for something sweet So let’s trick or treat On this night there’s nothing else that matters Watching witches, skulls, and jack o lanterns On the lookout for the scariest house now With a graveyard and its own ghost town All I wanna do is trick or treat So let’s cruise these streets I’m looking for something sweet So let’s trick or treat Peanut butter, chocolate, caramel Malt and nougat is unbearable I need more of that smell I don’t care if it’s sour our salty Butterscotch, licorice, taffy Just give more of it to me All I wanna do is trick or treat So let’s cruise these streets I’m looking for something sweet So let’s trick or treat

Going to the dance on a Friday night Walking down the street in the moonlight Picking up my date, everything’s all right I was so wrong Hear a sound to my left, maybe an animal Get a little scared, so I trip and fall Out of the darkness there comes a wolf It was a wolf man He came up so fast I didn’t stand a chance Didn’t have time to ask I’d been bitten Teenage werewolf, teenage werewolf That’s my story Teenage werewolf, teenage werewolf Could she love me [x2] Still Teeth get sharp, grow a lot of hair People start to point, wanna stop and stare My clothes all rip, don’t know what to wear I keep on changing But when the light go out She takes my hand She pulls me on the floor to dance

When it comes to the weekend a creature double feature is all that we want In the cars we’re screaming, popcorn we are eating, yeah, this hits the spot The rowdy boys are coming while the sun is setting, they know what we got Our blood is pumping, mystery is running, so they take their shot They show off their big fangs And they come down again and again At the drive-in all the vampires come At the drive-in they’ll suck your blood At the drive-in all the vampires come Make me your slave [take my soul], but just leave the milk duds With the silver screen shining and everybody smiling there's no place I'd rather be But when the bats are flying when the moon is rising we get a change of scene The darkness comes a-creeping, no one will be sleeping at the end of tonight With real monsters roaming cant tell where this is going, so filled with fright They show off their big fangs And they come down again and again At the drive-in all the vampires come At the drive-in they’ll suck your blood At the drive-in all the vampires come Make me your slave [take my soul], but just leave the milk duds [x2]

When the streetlights all turn on and the fog starts rolling in The big top shows up just outside city limits You can hear the laughter rolling on all through the mountains The carnival has come to town and they’re begging you to step right in They’ve got acts of every kind you believe your eyes But these creepy clowns have one thing on their mind, so be careful before you unwind The shadows twist We get lost in the mist Of the carnival of creepy clowns [x3] The carnival Three rings of screams and a funhouse waits inside You think this is a dream, but once you’re in you cannot hide The clowns can’t stop their sneer and they’re looking for some fun So when they get near better get ready to run These circus freaks will make you join, they’ll get you at any cost You can’t escape their demented games, once you play you’ve already lost The shadows twist We get lost in the mist Of the carnival of creepy clowns [x3] The carnival Killer Killer Cotton candy [x2] The shadows twist We get lost in the mist Of the carnival of creepy clowns [x3] The carnival

The man in the background’s gonna come around The man in the background’s gonna chase you down The man in the background’s so scary Cus he don’t speak, don’t speak He is always in the shadows He is out in the unknown He is looking from the window Or he’s already inside the home Always stalking, always creeping He’s a force that can’t be stopped Don’t even try to reason with him Don’t even try to call the cops He’s always there Ready to scare The man in the background’s gonna come around The man in the background’s gonna chase you down The man in the background’s so scary Cus he don’t speak, don’t speak When a blade in his hand is all he demands He can always beat your best laid plans And he’s coming out tonight With a fright he’ll always take a stand He’s always there Ready to scare The man in the background’s gonna come around The man in the background’s gonna chase you down The man in the background’s so scary Cus he don’t speak, don’t speak [x2] Why won’t you talk to me Why won’t you let us be Why can’t you set us free Why did you go on this spree The man in the background’s gonna come around The man in the background’s gonna chase you down The man in the background’s so scary Cus he don’t speak, don’t speak [x2]

All I see are shadows on the walls Dust and darkness filling up these halls What was once so vibrant starts to fall And the life we knew turns to a crawl And there’s times I swear I see your face Late at night Inside this empty place And I don’t want to go through this life alone Without you I can’t call this place my home This house is haunted without you The creaks at night, the moonlight, you come through Bats and cobwebs filling up my life I try to find truth in the candlelight And there’s times I swear I see your face Late at night Inside this empty place And I don’t want to go through this life alone Without you I can’t call this my home This house is haunted without you The creaks at night, the moonlight, you come through

Cabin in the woods Yeah we’re up to no good Reading from the book That we found in the basement (what’s the worst could happen) Cabin in the trees They won’t let us leave And evil comes to see How many of us they can take (leave us in their wake) Cabin in the woods We didn’t know Cabin in the woods They won’t let us go Cabin in the woods Where evil hides Cabin in the woods I don’t wanna die Cabin in the woods I’ve fought all that I could Done everything I should But I need a boomstick now (to take these suckers down) Cabin in the woods We didn’t know Cabin in the woods They won’t let us go Cabin in the woods Where evil hides Cabin in the woods I don’t wanna die Klaatu barada necktie Klaatu barada neckturn Klaatu barada nickel Klaatu barada nikto

Living in this town where everything is quiet Take a shortcut through the graveyard, what’s the worst that could happen My friends wanna party, this is turning to a habit We turn the music up and our toes start a-tapping But the moon is shining down and the earth starting to shake I wanna feel safe, but the dead start arising And now they’re crawling out from the ground And now there’s dancing zombies all around This is the dance of the dead, no feeling dread They may have two left feet or a missing head This is a dance of the dead, no feeling dread This is a dance, so let’s dance at this dance of the dead We thought they wanted brains but they only needed beats So we’re rocking and a-rolling through these city streets People looking through their windows and they don’t know what to think Can’t tell like Halloween if it’s a trick or treat And now they’re crawling out from the ground And now there’s dancing zombies all around This is the dance of the dead, no feeling dread They may have two left feet or a missing head This is a dance of the dead, no feeling dread This is a dance, so let’s dance at this dance of the dead

Together 02:53
They always lock their doors at night Under covers they all want to hide Never take the chance to see what’s outside All we want is freedom to be known Instead of chased out of our homes Our reputations keep us alone But we still hope you’ll see We’re more than stories for Halloween We are the ones under your bed We are the frights inside your head But don’t monsters have a soul And although some of us are dead If they’d just listen to what we said We wouldn’t always have to go In the shadows always wearing masks Too ashamed to admit to our pasts Always labeled and we’re stuck as outcasts But take a chance and talk to me I’ll show you there’s no reason to scream We don’t have always to haunt dreams And we still hope you’ll see We’re more than stories for Halloween We are the ones under your bed We are the frights inside your head But don’t monsters have a soul And although some of us are dead If they’d just listen to what we said We wouldn’t always have to go We are the monsters Sons and daughters We can be stronger Together We are the monsters Crazy doctors Flying saucers Together
