(Verse 1) The jack-o'-lanterns light the street You hear the sound of little feet But look again, the street is bare Is there really someone there? The autumn wind begins to moan You feel a chill right in the bone. (Chorus) Oh, the shadows on the wall Watch them flicker, watch them crawl! Is it just the candlelight? Or do the ghouls come out tonight? Listen close, a creak, a groan... You'd better not be home alone! (Verse 2) A black cat slinks across the grass A foggy shape floats past the glass The cellar door is rattling A hundred bony teeth are chattering A witch's laugh, a werewolf's howl The things that go "bump" are on the prowl. (Chorus) Oh, the shadows on the wall Watch them flicker, watch them crawl! Is it just the candlelight? Or do the ghouls come out tonight? Listen close, a creak, a groan... You'd better not be home alone! (Bridge) Knock, knock, knock! Who's at the door? You've never heard that sound before. You peek outside, there's no one there... Just fog and mist upon the air. But from the attic, high above You hear the coo-ing of a... dove? No, wait... it's something else instead It’s hiding right beneath your bed! (Chorus) Oh, the shadows on the wall Watch them flicker, watch them crawl! Is it just the candlelight? Or do the ghouls come out tonight? Listen close, a creak, a groan... It's spooky, spooky Halloween!
