[Intro] (Glitchy systemic hum) (Heavy mechanical gears grinding) (Sub-sonic bass drop) *System diagnostic... offline.* *Welcome to the show, little fillies...* [Verse 1] Bolt by bolt, we're sewn in plush Rusty gears inside the crush Plastic eyes that gleam so bright In the dead of autumn night Step right up and join the line Everything is just design Keep your hooves inside the cage Watch the animatronic rage! [Chorus] We're the Halloween mascots, hear us scream! Stuck inside a broken, plastic dream! With a robotic stomp and a copper spine Singing our song till the end of time! (Power surge) Clank, clank, go the heavy iron hooves! Watch how the rusted pony moves! [Verse 2] Oil dripping down the mane Circuit boards that feel the pain Press the button, hear us talk Frozen in a stuttered walk Smile-Pone-La'Noir is on the stage Crying tears of static rage Sparking wires and burning thread Are we living? Are we dead? [Chorus] We're the Halloween mascots, hear us scream! Stuck inside a broken, plastic dream! With a robotic stomp and a copper spine Singing our song till the end of time! Clank, clank, go the heavy iron hooves! Watch how the rusted pony moves! [Bridge] (Tempo slows down, industrial drums stutter) (Glitch vocal effect) System error... 404... Pony mascot... locked the door... No escape from the carnival ground Hear the whirring, grinding sound... One, two, three, four, watch us prance In our twisted, mechanical dance! (High-pitched filly laughter decaying into digital delay) [Guitar Solo] (Dissonant, screeching metal synthesizer solo mimicking a guitar shred) [Chorus] We're the Halloween mascots, hear us scream! Stuck inside a broken, plastic dream! With a robotic stomp and a copper spine Singing our song till the end of time! Clank, clank, go the heavy iron hooves! Watch how the rusted pony moves! [Outro] (Music slows, losing power) Just a toy... just a pony... Glitch... fade... Happy... Hal...lo...ween... (Heavy system shutdown click, static hiss)
