Lyrics for Song: This Is Halloween
Lyrics for Album: The Nightmare Before Christmas [1993]
Boys and girls of every age
Wouldn't you like to see something strange?
Come with us and you will see
This – our town of Halloween
This is Halloween, this is Halloween
Pumpkins scream in the dead of night
This is Halloween, everybody make a scene
Trick or treat 'till the neighbours gonna die of fright
In this town, everybody scream
In this town of Halloween
I am the one hiding under your bed
Teeth ground sharp and eyes glowing red
I am the one hiding under your stairs
Fingers like snakes with spiders in my hair
This is Halloween, this is Halloween
Halloween, Halloween, Halloween, Halloween
In this town, we call home,
Everyone hail to the pumpkin song
In this town, don't we love it now?
Everybody's waiting for the next surprise
Round that corner then, hiding in the trash can
Something's waiting and it'll pounce
And how you'll scream!
This is Halloween; red and black; and slimy green
Aren't you scared?
Well, that's just fine!
Say it once, say it twice
Take a chance and roll the dice
Ride with the moon in the dead of night
Everybody scream, everybody scream
In our town of Halloween
I am the clown with the tear – away face
Here in a flash and gone without a trace
I am the 'who' when you call "who's there?"
I am the wind blowing through your hair
I am the shadow in the moon at night
Filling your dreams to the brim with fright
This is Halloween, this is Halloween,
Halloween, Halloween, Halloween, Halloween
Halloween, Halloween,
Tender lumplings everywhere
Life's no fun without a good scare
That's our job, but we're not mean
In our town of Halloween
In this town, don't we love it now?
Everyone's waiting for the next surprise
Skeleton Jack might catch you in the back
And scream like a banshee
Make you jump out of your skin!
This is Halloween, and everybody scream
Won't you please make way for a very special guy?
Skeleton Jack is king of the pumpkin patch,
Everyone hail to the pumpkin king
This is Halloween, this is Halloween
Halloween, Halloween, Halloween, Halloween
In this town, we call home
Everyone hails to the pumpkin song
Lalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalala
Wheeeeeeeeee! *giggling*
