Ghosts in the Garden

लिरिक्स

[Intro] The porch light flickers—who’s at the door? A sheet with two eyes and a broom on the floor! [Verse 1] A ghost in a bedsheet is stuck in the gate, He rattles his chains but he’s running late. The witches roll past with their hats tipped low, One has a cauldron that’s ready to go. Kids hit the sidewalk with pillowcase sacks, They trade gummy worms and compare candy stacks. A skeleton waves from the neighbor’s front step, Then drops his jaw when the chocolate gets kept. [Chorus] Ghosts in the garden, witches in flight, Kids with their candy, out late tonight! Knock on the door, hear the whole block yell: Trick or treat—make some noise for Halloween! [Verse 2] A tiny vampire asks for one more bar, A pirate in sneakers says, “Look what I scored!” The witch gives a cackle, the ghost gives a spin, A bat loops around and dives back in. Candy corn, caramels, wrappers that crack, A handful for sharing, the rest in the sack. The porch pumpkins grin as the last kids roam, Then everybody heads home with a sugar-high haul. [Breakdown] Who’s that floating by the old oak tree? Ghost says, “Save a chocolate one for me!” Who’s on a broom with a laugh so loud? Witch says, “Make room—I’m joining the crowd!” [Chorus] Ghosts in the garden, witches in flight, Kids with their candy, out late tonight! Knock on the door, hear the whole block yell: Trick or treat—make some noise for Halloween! [Outro] The sacks are heavy, the moon hangs high, One last ghost waves as the witches fly. Save one sweet for the walk back home— Halloween’s over, but the tales live on!
