The moon is a whisper
The shadows sway
The wind tells secrets it stole today
Footsteps echo where none should stay
Lanterns flicker
Eyes in the mist
A chill like a ghostly kiss
The spooks are ready
They're out to play
Dancing wild till the break of day
A midnight parade
No soul can stray
The spooks are ready
They’ve come to stay
Grinning pumpkins
Their teeth aglow
Branches claw where the cold winds blow
The ground hums low with what lies below
Shadows ripple
They start to twist
Laughter sharp as a serpent’s hiss
The spooks are ready
They're out to play
Dancing wild till the break of day
A midnight parade
No soul can stray
The spooks are ready
They’ve come to stay
