When I was a boy I ate a pumpkin treat I walked around and round Looking really neat When I was a lad Got high on sugar cane Dressed up like Elton John And walked right through the rain What happened to the dead? (boy, I don't know) What happened to my friends? (boy, I don't know) I mostly miss the times of laughter with my friends (Happy Halloween) I miss the costumes, jack-o-lanterns, and movies (Happy Halloween) I miss the special drinks and taking time off work (Happy Halloween) I miss the magic parts, fall nights, and spooky things (Happy Halloween) Ohh boy, I think I love that peanut treat! Ohh man, I think I love that Mary Jane stink! (I mean that peanut treat) We can go to an orchard Eat an apple off a tree (oh boy, tell me) We can hang out in a graveyard Bring a wine, and something to eat (I mean, trick r' treat) What happens when we die?

remember moonlit streets collecting treats the sound of ghostly sheets across the leaves your neighbor wears a witch's hat October's spell is cast inside my rubber mask i gasp and laugh at headstones in the grass The Monster Mash is blaring somewhere down the block oh God, please stop the clock let's pray away the sun November One brings fear without the fun i've just begun to harvest courage in my skin and all the bones within for now, i'll wear my mask 'til night has passed and dream a pumpkin patch why can't this last? the morning scares away the moon it's gonna come too soon

about

In a year that's been scarier than most, it's nice to think back on the memories of Halloweens past, and try to summon some of that frightfully fun old-fashioned black magic into this spooky season.

We hope these songs find you and yours safe and sound, with a Halloween favorite on the TV, bite-sized candies abounding in plastic cauldrons, and a jack-o-lantern smiling brightly into the autumn night.
