Lyrics:
Happy Halloween! Happy Halloween!
Happy, Happy Halloween! Happy, Happy Halloween!
Happy, Happy Halloween! Happy, Happy Halloween!
Chorus:
Look out of the window tonight,
What will we see on Halloween night?
Go outside in the street tonight,
Who will we meet on Halloween night?
Verse 1:
Look there’s a ghost (Whooooooooo!)
Look there’s a monster (Rhhaaaaaa!)
Look there’s a witch (Cackle cackle!)
Look there’s a black cat (Meoooowwww!)
But don’t worry – they’re just kids! Wearing costumes!
Happy, Happy, Happy Halloween!
Happy, Happy, Happy Halloween!
Chorus
Verse 2:
Look there’s a wizard (Ho ho hoooo!)
Look there’s a mummy (Grrrrrrrrrr!)
Look there’s a bat (Eeekk! Eeekk!)
Look there’s a zombie (Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!)
But don’t worry – they’re just kids! Wearing costumes!
Happy, Happy Halloween!
Happy, Happy Halloween!
Happy, Happy Halloween!
Happy Halloween!
