[Verse 1: Female rapper, smoky raspy voice] Pumpkin carving darkness starting crooked grins along the stairs Candle flickers shadows skitter plastic spiders snag my hair Paper creatures pointed features flutter wildly by the gate Mask adjusting clasp unfastened dressed by noon I couldn’t wait Candy sorting costume sporting sneaking taffy from the overflowing bowl Sweet temptation sneak invasion creaking planks report the treats I stole Chilly shivers window quivers branches scratching rattling the pane Curtain shaking nerves awakening is that tapping snapping twigs or rain Moon is hanging loose chains clanging cardboard coffins crowd the lawn Footsteps creeping hinges squeaking check the deck the afternoon is gone Porch light blinking stomach sinking something shuffles muffled underneath Mask keeps slipping I keep tripping catch my laughter through these plastic teeth [Pre-Chorus] Hear the floorboards talk Feel the little chill Something in the air Makes the whole house still [Chorus] Spooky season Bippity boppity boo Spooky season I’m haunting with you Bippity boppity boo Bippity boppity boo Spooky season It’s spooky season [Verse 2: Female rapper, smoky raspy voice] Black cat creeping fence-post leaping curls a question with her tail Lantern lighting shadows sliding orange stripes along the rail Fright-night schemers high-pitched screamers flash their fangs outside my door Plastic incisors mischievous biters grinning wide and asking more Candy collectors caped little specters raid the bowl then race the clock Sneaker squeakers sweet-tooth seekers squeal and scatter round the block Doorbell ringing goblins grinning I act scared and stumble on the mat Hooded horrors porch explorers laugh so hard their witch drops her hat Clatter rattles laughter travels broomstick traffic fills the street Costume rustling cousins hustling crinkled wrappers tumble at their feet House stays haunted guests undaunted shrieks dissolve in giggling fits Knocks get louder laughs get rowdier no one wants to call it quits [Pre-Chorus] Hear the floorboards talk Feel the little chill Something in the air Makes the whole house still [Chorus] Spooky season Bippity boppity boo Spooky season I’m haunting with you Bippity boppity boo Bippity boppity boo Spooky season It’s spooky season [Bridge] Round and round we go Under paper moons Tiny skeleton feet Keeping perfect tune Shadows in the hall Dancing two by two Say it one more time And the spell comes through [Break: Music stops completely, female spoken word only] spooky season full of spooky treats don’t get it twisted, we still rule these spooky streets [Music resumes] [Final Chorus] Spooky season Bippity boppity boo Spooky season I’m haunting with you Bippity boppity boo Bippity boppity boo Spooky season It’s spooky season
