"Shivery Yells"
(to the tune of SILVER BELLS)
We're on sidewalks, we're on porches ,
Dressed in costumes to scare.
Through the city we're ringing the doorbells
Trick or treating, candy eating,
Gooey stuff in our hair
But the most fun is shrieking out loud:
Shivery yells, Shivery yells
That's the Halloween nitty-gritty
Moan and groan, leaves us alone
Halloween's just one night a year.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Pumpkin Bells"
(to the tune of JINGLE BELLS)
Dashing through the streets in our costumes bright and gay
To each house we go laughing all the way
Halloween is here, making spirits bright
What fun it is to trick-or-treat
And sing pumpkin carols tonight !
Oh Pumpkin bells, Pumpkin bells
Ringing loud and clear
Oh what fun great pumpkin brings
When Halloween is here.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`
"Deck The Patch"
( to the tune of DECK THE HALLS)
Deck the patch with orange and black Fa la la la la, la la la la
Take along your goody sack Fa la la la la, la la la la
Don we now our weird apparel Fa la la la la, la la la la
Toll the ancient pumpkin carol Fa la la la la, la la la la
See the great one rise before us Fa la la la la, la la la la
As we sing the pumpkin chorus Fa la la la la, la la la la
Follow him as he ascends Fa la la la la, la la la la
Join with true great pumpkin friends. Fa la la la la, la la la la
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"I'm Dreaming Of The Great Pumpkin"
(WHITE CHRISTMAS TUNE)
I'm dreaming of the great pumpkin
Just like I do this time each year.
When he brings nice toys
To good girls and boys
Who wait for him to appear.
I'm dreaming of the great pumpkin
With every pumpkin card I write.
May your jack-o-lanterns burn bright
When the great pumpkin visits you tonight.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`
"Up In The Pumpkin Patch"
(tune of UP ON THE ROOFTOP)
Up in the pumpkin patch, witches pause.
Out jumps the great one; hear the applause??!
Down through the rows with goodies and toys
All for this followers Halloween joys!!
Haunt! Haunt ! Haunt! Who wouldn't want?
Haunt! Haunt ! Haunt! Who wouldn't want?
To be in the pumpkin patch Cheer ! Cheer! Cheer!
Waiting for the great one and being sincere.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`
"Great Pumpkin Is Coming To Town"
(tune of Santa Claus is coming to town)
Oh, you better not shriek, You better not groan,
You better not howl, You better not moan,
Great Pumpkin is coming to town!
He's going to find out from folks that he meets
Who deserves tricks and who deserves treats.
Great Pumpkin is coming to town.
He'll search in every pumpkin patch
Haunted houses farr and near
To see if you've been spreading gloom
Or bringing lots of cheer.
So you better not shriek, Yu better not groan,
You better not howl, You better not moan
Great Pumpkin is coming to town.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"The Twelve Days Of Halloween"
(12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS TUNE)
On the twelfth day of Halloween my true love gave to me
12 bats a-flying
11 masks a-leering
10 ghouls a-groaning
9 ghosts a-booing
8 monsters shrieking
7 pumpkins glowing
6 gobblins gobbling
5 SCAREY SPOOKS
4 skeletons
3 black cats
2 trick-or-treaters and
a night owl in a dead tree.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Pumpkin Wonderland"
(to the tune of WINTER WONDERLAND)
Screech owls hoot, are you listenin' ?
Beneath the moon, all is glistenin'
A real scarey sight, we're happy tonight
Waitin' in a pumpkin wonderland.
In the patch, we're watching for Great pumpkin
We've been waiting for this night all year.
For we've tried to be nice to everybody
And to grow a pumpkin patch that is sincere!
Later on, while we're eating
What we got trick-or-treating
We'll share all our sacks
Of Halloween snacks
Waiting in a pumpkin wonderland.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"O Pumpkin Cards"
(tune of OH CHRISTMAS TREE)
O pumpkin cards ! O pumpkin cards!
Carry greetings to my friends.
Let them know the day is here
When great pumpkin will appear.
O pumpkin cards! O pumpkin cards!
Carry greetings to my friends!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"I Heard The Bells On Halloween"
I heard the bells on Halloween
Their old familiar carols scream,
And wild and sweet
The words repeat.
The pumpkin season's here again.
Then pealed the bells more loud and strong
Great pumpkin comes before too long!
The good will get
The bad will fret
The pumpkin season's here again!
