This is Halloween lyrics
Marilyn Manson Lyrics

Boys and girls of every age
Inviting people of all ages, genders and beliefs to join in the celebration of Halloween

Wouldn't you like to see something strange?
Asking the listeners if they are interested in seeing something out of the ordinary

Come with us and you will see
Welcoming the listeners to follow and explore with the singer

This, our town of Halloween
Referring to the setting of Halloween, a place where the festivities and excitement occur

This is Halloween, this is Halloween
Emphasizing that it is indeed Halloween and the celebration has started

Pumpkins scream in the dead of night
Depicting jack-o'-lanterns glowing in the darkness with carved faces that seem to be screaming

This is Halloween, everybody make a scene
Encouraging everyone to join in the fun and dress up in costumes to create a spectacle

Trick or treat till the neighbors gonna die of fright
Encouraging people to go door-to-door and playfully scare their neighbors with trick-or-treating

It's our town, everybody scream
Claiming ownership of Halloween and the associated festivities, and urging everyone to scream in excitement

In this town of Halloween
Reiterating that Halloween is the prime focus of this location

I am the one hiding under your bed
Introducing a character who is scary and lurking in the bedroom

Teeth ground sharp and eyes glowing red
Elaborating on the frightening appearance of the character hiding under the bed

I am the one hiding under your stairs
Informing the listener of a second character who is hiding in a creepy place in the house

Fingers like snakes and spiders in my hair
Further intensifying the vivid description of the unsettling attributes of the character lurking under the stairs

Halloween! Halloween! Halloween! Halloween!
Repeating the word 'Halloween' several times to emphasize the theme and excitement of the day

In this town we call home
Referring to the town where Halloween is being celebrated as a special place

Everyone hail to the pumpkin song
Encouraging everyone to acknowledge the importance of the pumpkin in Halloween celebrations

Don't we love it now?
Asking the listener if they are enjoying the Halloween festivities

Everybody's waiting for the next surprise
Anticipating and looking forward to the next Halloween event

'Round that corner, man hiding in the trash can
Describing a new, creepy character hiding in an unexpected place

Something's waiting no to pounce, and how you'll
Suggesting that the new character is preparing to jump out at someone and scare them

Scream! This is Halloween
Encouraging everyone to scream out in exhilaration as Halloween continues

Red 'n' black, and slimy green
Describing the colors often associated with Halloween, giving a visual of the scene

Aren't you scared?
Asking the listener if they are experiencing fear or apprehension

Well, that's just fine
Assuring the listener that it is okay to be scared on Halloween

Say it once, say it twice
Encouraging people to chant and repeat phrases, adding to the spirit of Halloween

Take a chance and roll the dice
Inviting the listener to take risks and enjoy the spontaneity of the night

Ride with the moon in the dead of night
Encouraging people to embrace the eerie feeling of the night and enjoy the ambiance

Everybody scream, everybody scream
Rallying everyone participating in Halloween to scream with excitement and joy

I am the clown with the tear-away face
Introducing a new character dressed up as a clown with a scary attribute

Here in a flash and gone without a trace
Imploring people to be wary of this character as they unpredictably show up and disappear

I am the 'who' when you call, 'Who's there?'
Suggesting a third, unexpected character who will answer the door or the phone for someone when they are expecting someone else

I am the wind blowing through your hair
Depicting the unsettling and unexpected feeling of wind rushing through someone's hair

I am the shadow on the moon at night
Portraying a terrifying figure lurking and watching from the shadows

Filling your dreams to the brim with fright
Inducing nightmares in people's dreams with these creepy characters and depictions

Tender lumplings everywhere
Describing a cute and soft type of food that is out of place and unexpected on Halloween

Life's no fun without a good scare
Highlighting the importance of fear and excitement in life; reminding people of the thrill of being scared

That's our job, but we're not mean
Noting that scaring people is part of the fun on Halloween but it is not meant to be malicious

Skeleton Jack might catch you in the back
Depicting another new character who will surprise and scare people

And scream like a banshee
This new character will scream loudly like a ghost from Irish mythology

Make you jump out of your skin
This character is so scary that people will jump out of their skin with fear

Won't ya please make way for a very special guy
Introducing a special character, Jack, who is important and in charge on this night

Our man Jack is King of the Pumpkin patch
Emphasizing the importance of the Pumpkin King, Jack, on this special night

La la la la la la la la la la (Halloween! Halloween!)
Chanting the word 'Halloween' repeatedly, in a fun and exciting way to convey the spirit of the occasion, thus concluding the song
