I'm carving pumpkins, It's almost Halloween. All my friends are wondering what they're gonna be. The Monster Mash is playing. You're moving to the beat
I paint my face every year all day The 31st ain't nothin' to me, another holiday All of a sudden face paintin's in style And I've been doin' ever since
We measure things by what we are To the maggots in the cheese, the cheese is the universe To the worms in the corpse, the corpse is the cosmos How, then
[Incomprehensible] How horrid to be buried alive Imagine the [Incomprehensible] trapped in your own coffin Your heart beating wildly, every gasping breath
Red and gold, and halloween have passed us by, The charcoal branches lean against the rosy sky, You are so far away, yet I could touch you if I may, But
The dead, they got that morbid beat, it goes deo deo They dance upon decaying feet With their black toes, oh, oh Heaven limbo and Hell Purgatory, oh
Aw! Pack the moon with coffin, eyes so crazy for the dead she go-go in the devils house with a satan on the bed Freak on her like a maniac yeah go baby
(Monoxide Child) Man, it was fucked up and I'll never forget it There was blood all over my hands, I must have did it I'm in handcuffs and these people
Well I live with snakes and lizards and other things that go bump in the night 'Cuz to me everyday is Halloween I have given up hiding and started to
Lost touch of the sense that used to feel the morning These arms still heavy from what carried us before Could use a breath from the old and familiar

Well, the retards laughed when the evening came The 'librium makes them all the same And boy, you still got shit for brains It's halloween on the coast
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,
Here comes that shit again, I got a Halloween head Head full of tricks and treats it leads me through the nighttime streets Black cats and falling trees
Halloween Valentine Only take what was mine Hitler heart cigarette Am I safe here.... I forget No, I'm not this crazy And I can't have fun Makes me feel
My life, just got grim My life, on account of him You had a chance You could have made it again Are you really gonna marry her on Halloween day Halloween
(Instrumental)
I know a girl who's tough but sweet She's so fine, she can't be beat She's got everything that I desire Sets the summer sun on fire I want candy, I want
