Much longer than it seems
In the heart of a universe kids used to dream of
And one day came this strange adventure
In the world of present and future holidays
Where the holidays came from?
Here's the secret entrance
Do you want to see a strange world
Where we love demons but not angels?
Follow us, come visit
This is Halloween, this is Halloween
The pumpkins are gonna die of fright!
This is Halloween, everybody looks awful
That's okay! It's to terrify the brats!
Midnight strikes It's the hour of crime
Me, I hide under your bed at night
My teeth, my eyes shine in the dark
Me, I hide under your staircase
Snake fingers and spider hair
This is Halloween, this is Halloween
Halloween, Halloween, Halloween, Halloween
It's the city of night
Pumpkins sing and bats grin
We joke around, we play tricks
We don't know what the next surprise will be!
At the corner of the street, there are strangers
Who spring from garbage cans to give you
It's hell! By fire, by ice
You gotta play heads or tails
And take off hell-for-leather!
It's the city of crime! It's the city of crime!
I lose my head, sometimes I rip it off
Before disappearing in a flash
I'm the dead man who clamps the bit between his teeth
I'm the wind that chills your blood
Me, I slip like a black shadow
And I turn your dreams into nightmares!
This is Halloween, this is Halloween
Halloween, Halloween, Halloween, Halloween
There are kids way too well-behaved
We prefer the ones who rage!
We scare but we keep control
In the city of Halloween!
Everybody waits for the next surprise!
If Jack the skeleton, without drums or trumpets
Pops up behind you, you won't grow old bones!
This is Halloween! It's the city of crime!
Welcome to the dreadful scarecrow!
Bravo Jack! You're a whiz!
Long live our new king! Jack the gargoyle
Is the Pumpkin King!
This is Halloween, this is Halloween
Halloween, Halloween, Halloween, Halloween
It's the city of night
Pumpkins sing and bats grin!
