Two Little Pumpkins

when i was a little pumpkin
no bigger than a tennis ball
all my brothers and sister
had been dashed against the garden wall
but there were two little pumpkins
who'd fallen in love
she was from the warm patch i was from the cold
all the while we're growing
twas her i longed to hold
we were two little pumpkins
who'd fallen in love
well Halloween's the fright time
for tricks and treats and mischief
Halloween's the right time for pagan rites and harvesting souls
if god and man and pumpkin may be so very bold
but there were two little pumpkins
falling in love
she was from the warm patch i was from the cold
all the while we're growing
twas her i longed to hold
we were two little pumpkins
just falling in love
now on Samhain's eve
grisly faces made on our bodies
as our planters cackled over their hot toddies
now our time being brief
as the autumn leaf
we came then as the thieves
decapitating our owners
jumping on their shoulders
possessing their limbs
to do human naughty things
we were two little pumpkins
had fallen in love
she was from the warm patch i was from the cold
all the while we're growing
twas her i longed to hold

Baby Dracula
I'm baby Dracula
rolling down the street in pram
looking for a mama mama
then i go wah wah wah wah wah
won't you be Baby Dracula's mama
just an itty bitty baby
with a thirst for human blood
never know no difference tween
bad or good
don't know how i ever could
just a baby
itty bitty baby
Baby Dracula
Baby Dracula
looking for a mamama
wah wah wah wah
Rosie gathered me up in her arms
succumbing to my baby charms
goo goo gaga
wah wah wah wah wah wah
then Rosie decided to be my mama
baby
just a baby
Baby Dracula
rolling down the street in my pram
as gentle as a lamb
that's what my mama thinks
til i show my fangs
I'm a baby
Baby Dracula

The Jacko Lantern
04:31

there's a big haunted club at the top of the hill
all the monsters say its the greatest Halloween thrill
they call it the Jacko
the Jacko Lantern
pumpkins rockin' and rollin'
werewolves are howling the Halloween sonata
hey look there comes the ghost
of mister Sinatra
crooning those piano blues
all night at the Jacko
at the Jacko Lantern
the undead Elizabethan dancing troupe
are dancing a pattern
in the middle of the dance floor
zombies and zombinis dancing in the moonlight
Frankenstein's monster ruminating and musing in the star light
her comes Hagwilrina
that fabled ballerina
with a bottomless bowl of punch
and about 4 million thousand packets of monster munch
at the the Jacko Lantern
bring your turnips and your pumpkins
bring your pretty dancing shoes
bring your pretty costumes
bring your wise men and fools
to the Jacko Lantern
pumpkins rockin' and rollin'
ghouls and goblins with crates of coffins
we'll take out the people who've been long forgotten
if they're dismembered we'll stick together the odds and ends and get them dancing
the scallyboy wankers setting off fireworks
everybody's going totally berserk
at the Jacko Lantern
the cyclops and the mummy stripping down to no clothes
for the witches' coven
yes they've got some cauldrons
functioning as jacuzzis
everybody's getting straight groovy
at the Jacko Lantern
the haunted hill that time forgot
the greatest club in the world
at the Jacko Lantern
pumpkins rockin' and rollin'

The Cyclops
03:41

a clock face amidst streaking clouds
lit by the harvest moon
is it a clock face? no
it's the eye of the cyclops
save me baby
save me from the glaring lone eye
the eye of the cyclops
the magician in our town
gather round children
observe his marvels
play with your marbles
all along the magician
or should i say the mortician
was the servant of the lone roving eye
the eye of the cyclops
save me from the eye of the cyclops
through the ferned mouth of the graveyard
shattered gravestones
dolmens in shards
by the raising of that undead villain
that menace
that cyclops
that dreaded scary cyclops
save me baby
save me from the eye of the cyclops
please do
far out to sea
is that the roving beacon of the lighthouse? no
be in no doubt
it's the eye of the cyclops
round about the m50
Hiaces and hatchbacks
been scattered around
the beloved vehicles of their owners
were never found
it was the cyclops playing pitch and putt
with an unearthed great oak
playing golf
with the cars
and beloved vans
of people who will never see them again
what's the handicap of the cyclops?
save me baby
save me from the eye
the roving lone eye
the eye of the demented cyclops

I don't know what you have to hold on to
between you and I
I don't know where we go when we die
but one thing I got in that sky
a big round saucer
tractor beam
sending me way up high in the sky
I've been abducted by the aliens
happy Halloween
from the greys
from the big eyes
we can be loved if we just surrender ourselves
to the arms of the aliens
elevating me way up high
beyond the blue sky
to the great milky way
I don't know what to say
I'm so grateful to you
Mister Alien
can I tell you that we've really got it banjaxed down here
I've been abducted by the aliens
and I can't wait to say goodbye to you all
I can't wait to leave this dreadful world behind
that we have destroyed
the nature we have denied ourselves
the garden of Eden
we tried to pack it on the shelves
I've been abducted by the aliens
happy Halloween terrestrials
it was pretty fun living down there on earth
but I gotta go
I've been abducted by the aliens on Halloween's eve
I don't know what you have to hold on to
between you and I
I don't know where we go when we die
but I got a tractor beam from a great saucer
in the night sky
pulling me yonder
beyond the clouds
I've been abducted by the aliens
