Dancing Through the Dead of Night (A Halloween Song Inspired by ABBA)
[Intro – Sparkling Piano and Disco Strings] Oh-oh-oh, the moon is shining bright! Oh-oh-oh, we're dancing through the night! Hey! Hey! It's Halloween tonight! [Verse 1] The clock strikes twelve, the shadows fall, There's something moving down the hall, A silver moon, a midnight sky, The ghosts are getting dressed tonight! The vampires leave their crypts below, The werewolves hear the music grow, The witches fly across the moon, They're all arriving way too soon! [Pre-Chorus] And when the midnight bells start ringing, You can hear the whole world singing, There's magic in the atmosphere, The biggest party of the year! [Chorus] We're dancing through the dead of night! Underneath the pale moonlight! Oh-oh-oh, the spirits come alive, We're gonna dance until the morning light! We're dancing through the dead of night! Everything is feeling right! Oh-oh-oh, let the monsters play, It's Halloween, we're here to stay! [Post-Chorus – Layered Harmonies] Whoa-oh-oh-oh! Dancing in the moonlight! Whoa-oh-oh-oh! Everybody feels alive! [Verse 2] Frankenstein is on the floor, The Mummy's dancing by the door, Dracula is dressed in white, He's got a date with a ghost tonight! The skeletons are shaking bones, The zombies dancing in their homes, The black cats jump, the pumpkins glow, There's nowhere else you'd rather go! [Pre-Chorus] And when the midnight bells start ringing, You can hear the whole world singing, The stars are shining way up high, Tonight we'll never say goodbye! [Chorus] We're dancing through the dead of night! Underneath the pale moonlight! Oh-oh-oh, the spirits come alive, We're gonna dance until the morning light! We're dancing through the dead of night! Everything is feeling right! Oh-oh-oh, let the monsters play, It's Halloween, we're here to stay! [Instrumental Break – Disco Strings, Piano and Synthesizers] [Bridge – Dramatic Female Vocal Harmonies] When the darkness calls your name, Nothing's ever quite the same, Take my hand and hold on tight, We'll be dancing through the night! Oh, the moon is burning red, There's a party for the dead, Don't you worry, don't you cry, We're forever young tonight! [Final Chorus – Big Explosive Harmonies] We're dancing through the dead of night! Underneath the pale moonlight! Oh-oh-oh, the spirits come alive, We're gonna dance until the morning light! We're dancing through the dead of night! Everything is feeling right! Oh-oh-oh, let the monsters play, It's Halloween, we're here to stay! [Final Chorus – Key Change] Keep on dancing, hold on tight! We're the creatures of the night! Oh-oh-oh, let the whole world sway, We'll dance until the break of day! [Outro – Repeating Harmonies] Whoa-oh-oh-oh! Dancing through the dead of night! Whoa-oh-oh-oh! Halloween is here tonight! Oh-oh-oh! The dead are dancing! Oh-oh-oh! And we ain't stopping! [Big Final Hit]
