Set the mood, spook-induced dimensional detour
Alternate realm, reign of the charred overlord
Sacrifices, seances through the witching hour
By the power of darkness, these sweets be devoured
Danse macabre, dilemma on the front lawn
Liminal space between before and beyond
Caught in a corn maze of aging, I'm lost
But the sorcery stirs within the holder of the wand
Place where the night never fades
Leaves fall and time pauses, all problems at bay
The Great Pumpkin cometh, sun blacks out and plummets
The moon burns above and lights our lecherous way
All Hallow's Eve, the great in-between
The cauldron is bubbling with mischief and mystery
Horrific history, hands on the planchette
Spirits set loose in cemeteries and abandoned mansions
Orange smoke billows from the cornfield o'er the culdesac
Witch blood runs deep, razor blades in the treats, ravenous teeth tear and hack
Danse macabre, dilemma on the front lawn
Liminal space between before and beyond
Caught in a corn maze of aging, I'm lost
But the sorcery stirs within the holder of the wand
