It portrays the child's fear of potential monsters under the bed and the comfort they find under their covers. Ultimately, it speaks to the bravery and imagination of children facing their spooky Halloween fears. [INTRO] When the sun goes down, and shadows creep in, It’s time for bed with your blanket to chin Pale moonlight shafts, creep from window to floor moths flutter at the window by the score [PRE-CHORUS] It's that time of year! Can I take much more? What is that creaking I hear? Or dragging chains on a floor... Whatever it is, will it smell my fear? In the distance a creaking door!! It feels like someone is near. Let me hide under the covers and pretend to snore. [CHORUS] It is Halloween...Halloween....Halloween!!!! (Halloween....) Under my covers I can't be seen...can't be seen (Can't be seen....) Is that true??? If not whatever, will I do?? No, you can't scare me!!! You'll see, I am a big kid now... [VERSE 1] Deep in your stomach you feel twist of fate Way past your bedtime, you know now it’s late. Deafening silence is all that you hear, Sensing evils approach neck hairs raise in fear. Can you hear scratching from bed underneath? Oh no, did you forget to brush your teeth? [CHORUS] It is Halloween...Halloween....Halloween!!!! (Halloween....) Under my covers I can't be seen...can't be seen (Can't be seen....) Is that true??? If not whatever, will I do?? No, you can't scare me!!! You'll see, I am a big kid now... [VERSE 2] Could it be a monster under my bed? Why is he angry, hasn't he been fed? Can't he climb under your bed? And get you instead? That rumble, is his stomach making that sound? Under my covers I can't be found? (Right???) Did I forget to put the toilet seat down? [CHORUS] It is Halloween...Halloween....Halloween!!!! (Halloween....) Under my covers I can't be seen...can't be seen (Can't be seen....) Is that true??? If not whatever, will I do?? No, you can't scare me!!! You'll see, I am a big kid now... [Instrumental Interlude: Frightened] [OUTRO] I know he is under my bed, but how? Maybe he will go away, if I pray? (Brrrrrrt) Whats the smell, did he just....Wow!! I am not sure what else to say.... Wait!!! One of my toys are missing now. Awwww he just wanted to play!!! Ohh thats soooooo cute. He just wanted to play!!!! [CHORUS] It is Halloween...Halloween....Halloween!!!! (Halloween....) Under my covers I can't be seen...can't be seen (Can't be seen....) Is that true??? If not whatever, will I do?? No, you can't scare me!!! You'll see, I am a big kid now... [FADE TO END] [END]
