Too Soon For Halloween? [Playful dark synth-pop at 118 BPM, bouncy analog bass, crisp electronic drums, spooky music-box arpeggios, soft gothic pads, occasional theremin-like synth bends, cute mischievous lead vocal, bright chorus with handclaps and theatrical backing vocals. Keep the mood charming and whimsical rather than genuinely scary.] [Intro — tiny music box, whispered vocal] September... Seriously? [Verse 1] Leaves are falling Nights are cold I found my cape I found my fangs I checked the moon It looked at me And said, "Not yet, Luna" [Pre-Chorus] Six more weeks That's forty-two nights I have the outfit I have the lights [Chorus] Too soon for Halloween? Too soon for Halloween? I'm a cute little vampire But I have to wait Too soon for Halloween? Too soon for Halloween? I've got six more weeks To contemplate my fate [Verse 2] Pumpkins aren't ready Cobwebs can wait The calendar says "Please demonstrate restraint" I bought some candy I hid it away I ate it already It's only September [Pre-Chorus] Six more weeks That's much too long How am I supposed To keep being calm? [Chorus] Too soon for Halloween? Too soon for Halloween? I'm a cute little vampire With nowhere to go Too soon for Halloween? Too soon for Halloween? I can hear the spooky season But it's moving too slow [Bridge — music drops to bass and music box] September twentieth October feels far I can count the nights I can count every star [Soft backing vocals] Forty-two... Forty-two... [Luna] That's basically forever. [Instrumental break — playful synth melody, theatrical vampire laugh] [Final Chorus] Too soon for Halloween? Too soon for Halloween? I'll wear my little cape And practice my "boo" Too soon for Halloween? Too soon for Halloween? Fine... I'll wait. [Beat pauses] Probably. [Final Chorus — bigger, playful] Too soon for Halloween? Too soon for Halloween? Six more weeks of waiting For the moon to turn black Too soon for Halloween? Too soon for Halloween? If anybody asks... [Whisper] I'm already dressed. [Outro — music box] September... You are taking forever.
