STOP! IT'S GHOST TIME!

STUDIO

[Intro – 0:00–0:18] [Spinning, eerie ballerina music box] [Detuned notes, reversed whispers, distant ghost laughter] [No drums at first] (Whisper…) Ooooooh… who's in the room? [Deep ghost voice] Welcome to the graveyard… (Mwahahahaha!) [Music box slows down, pitch drops] [Ghostly voices echo from left to right] Three… two… one… [Deep male spoken voice] Yeah… IT'S GHOST TIME! [Glitch stop – brief silence] [EXPLOSIVE FRENCH HOUSE FUNK BEAT DROP] [Verse 1 – Rap] Midnight strikes, the gates swing wide, Little green ghosts go for a midnight ride. Pumpkin heads with a crazy grin, Dead men dancing — let the madness begin! Mummy's got moves, Frankenstein's fresh, A zombie in a suit with a gold-plated chest. Skeletons shaking like washing machines, The wildest party you've ever seen! The DJ's a vampire, dressed in black, He spins one record and the dead come back. No invitations, no dress-code fight, If you ain't got a pulse, you're in tonight! [Pre-Hook – Call and Response] [Rapper] Everybody freeze! [Ghost voices] FREEZE! FREEZE! [Rapper] Now shake those bones! [Ghost voices] SHAKE THOSE BONES! [Rapper] Who's running this place? [Ghost voices] THE GHOSTS! THE GHOSTS! [Rapper] You know what time it is? [All voices] STOP! IT'S GHOST TIME! [Chorus – Rhythmic Rap Chant, No Singing] STOP! IT'S GHOST TIME! (HEY! HEY!) STOP! IT'S GHOST TIME! (BOO! ALL RIGHT!) Hands in the air, let the dead come alive, Left, right, left — watch the skeletons slide! STOP! IT'S GHOST TIME! (HEY! HEY!) STOP! IT'S GHOST TIME! (BOO! ALL NIGHT!) Shake that coffin, make the whole floor shake, Halloween's here — LET'S MAKE SOME RACKET! [Post-Hook – DJ Loop] STOP! STOP! IT'S GHOST TIME! STOP! STOP! IT'S GHOST TIME! [Final DJ Chant – Repeatable Outro] STOP! IT'S GHOST TIME! STOP! IT'S GHOST TIME! (BOO! BOO!) IT'S GHOST TIME! STOP! IT'S GHOST TIME! STOP! IT'S GHOST TIME! STOP! STOP! IT'S GHOST TIME! [Glitch repeats, chopped ghost laughs, bass continues] (BOO-BOO-BOO!) [Four-bar instrumental DJ loop] [Verse 2 – Rap] The witch hits the floor in a crooked hat, A black cat's scratching on the welcome mat. Dracula's thirsty, but the bar's run dry, He orders a blood-red shot — the bartender asks, "Why?" The werewolf's moonwalking, looking insane, The ghost at the door can't remember his name. The headless horseman is losing his head, He's dancing so hard that he's shaking the dead! The coffin's a booth and the tomb is a bar, A flying broom is parked next to my car. The lights flash green, then purple, then white, Even the monsters wanna dance all night! [Pre-Hook 2 – Spoken Rap] [Rapper] Hold up! Hold up! Don't move a bone! [Beat cuts – one beat of silence] [Ghost voice, close whisper] Are you dancing… or are you dead? [Rapper] I CAN'T HEAR YOU! [Ghost voices, louder] WE'RE UNDEAD! [Rapper] Then everybody knows the time! [All voices] STOP! IT'S GHOST TIME! [Chorus – Rhythmic Rap Chant] STOP! IT'S GHOST TIME! (HEY! HEY!) STOP! IT'S GHOST TIME! (BOO! ALL RIGHT!) Hands in the air, let the dead come alive, Left, right, left — watch the skeletons slide! STOP! IT'S GHOST TIME! (HEY! HEY!) STOP! IT'S GHOST TIME! (BOO! ALL NIGHT!) Shake that coffin, make the whole floor shake, Halloween's here — LET'S MAKE SOME RACKET! [Bridge – Old-School Funk Rap / Beat Switch] [Beat strips back to funky bass, drums and brass stabs] [Confident, rhythmic spoken rap] Stop! Who's that knocking? (LET 'EM IN!) Stop! Who's still rocking? (WE'RE ALL IN!) Ghosts in the front, zombies in the back, The mummy lost a shoe, but she's still on track! One for the witches! One for the witches! (TWO FOR THE GHOULS!) Three for the monsters breaking all the rules! [Rapper] When I say STOP, you say GHOST TIME! [Rapper] STOP! [Final DJ Chant – Repeatable Outro] STOP! IT'S GHOST TIME! STOP! IT'S GHOST TIME! (BOO! BOO!) IT'S GHOST TIME! STOP! IT'S GHOST TIME! STOP! IT'S GHOST TIME! [Rapper] Everybody freeze! [Deep voice] NOW BREAK THE NIGHT! [Final Chorus – Maximum Dance Energy] STOP! IT'S GHOST TIME! (HEY! HEY!) STOP! IT'S GHOST TIME! (BOO! ALL RIGHT!) Hands in the air, let the dead come alive, Left, right, left — watch the skeletons slide! STOP! IT'S GHOST TIME! (HEY! HEY!) STOP! IT'S GHOST TIME! (BOO! ALL NIGHT!) Shake that coffin, make the whole floor shake, Halloween's here — LET'S MAKE SOME RACKET! [Final DJ Chant – Repeatable Outro] STOP! IT'S GHOST TIME! STOP! IT'S GHOST TIME! (BOO! BOO!) IT'S GHOST TIME! STOP! IT'S GHOST TIME! STOP! IT'S GHOST TIME! (BOO! BOO!) IT'S GHOST TIME! STOP! IT'S GHOST TIME! STOP! IT'S GHOST TIME! [Beat strips down to bass and claps] [Rapper, spoken] Same time next Halloween? [Ghost voice] WE'LL NEVER LEAVE! (Mwahahahaha!) [Spinning ballerina music box returns, slowed and detuned] [One final ghost whisper] Stop… [Glitch cut] [End]
