Academy Classics: Halloween Songs

By John Page

“Something at the Door”

There was a lady getting ready for bed

A-hoo a-hoo a-hoo 

She went and bumped her head

A-hoo a-hoo a-hoo 

She heard a knock upon the door

A-hoo a-hoo a-hoo 

 Then she went across the floor

A-hoo a-hoo a-hoo 

Then she went to open the door

A-hoo a-hoo a-hoo 

But before she could do any more 

A-hoo a-hoo a-hoo 

 She felt someone touch her core

A-hoo a-hoo a-hoo 

Then she realized it was the ghost who lived next door

“Happy Little Pumpkin”

Happy little pumpkin growing in the field, growing in the field, growing in the field

Happy little pumpkin growing in the field looking forward to Halloween 

Happy little pumpkin growing in the field, growing in the field sees the leaves turn red and brown, red and brown 

Happy little pumpkin  in the field waiting to be picked gets real happy when it sees a family 

Go home together and they give the happy little pumpkin a smiley face, a smiley face, a smiley face

Happy little Pumpkin is now ready to greet all the happy trick-or-treaters this Halloween

Happy little pumpkin is now big and bright, big and bright, big and bright 

Happily big pumpkin big and bright, big and bright

Ready to tell you a happy Halloween night 

“Skeleton Dance”

The skeleton does a spooky dance 

He realizes that he has no pants 

Thus, he goes to get his pants

And do more of his spooky dance 

He gets close ready to do his show 

He stands on his toes

His partner has on bows

They know how it goes.

“Monster in the Dark”

So the monster laying in the dark 

He is waiting to do his part 

To bring a fright 

For someone’s delight 

For soon will be the eve

Where the ghosts scream 

Are you ready for this night 

I would but I might 

Have to work today 

That’s ok

The monster is a patient soul 

With no where else to go 

But wait 

It’s not that late 

Into the night we go

Where will we end up no one knows
