There's a party going on
Starting at midnight
It's a ball for Hallowe'en
Here's your cordial invite
I think you know the dress code
It'll need a spooky touch
Cobwebs and a splash of blood
A little, not too much
Music from The Strolling Bones
Spirits served 'til late
But once you're in, you're in
No refund or rebate
Doors are locked and bolted
The fun will really start
Replace the fake with real blood
Tapped freshly from your heart
As for ghouls and ghosties
There weren't any before
With more party guests arriving
We'll soon fill the floor
You thought this was a party
In one respect you're right
Your invite covered entrance
But you won't leave tonight
So if you're feeling frightened
You have got good reason
This ain't no Happy Hallowe'en
Or even party season
You're top of the guest list
You really fit the bill
And we're all gonna feed
Until we've had our fill...
