Grim Grinning Ghosts
Singing Busts Lyrics

When the crypt doors creak
As the doors of the spooky and dark vault creak, it's an indication that the spirits are coming out

And the tombstones quake
The tombstones start to shake and rattle, indicating that the ghosts beneath them are rising

Spooks come out for a singing wake
The ghosts emerge from their graves, preparing for a musical celebration

Happy haunts materialize
Friendly spirits appear from nowhere and come together to party

And begin to vocalize
The friendly spirits start to sing and give a great performance

Grim grinning ghosts come out to socialize
The not-so-friendly ghosts come out to join the party and socialize with the other spirits

Now don't close your eyes
Do not close your eyes because you need to witness this amazing spectacle of the spirits' celebration

And don't try to hide
Don't try to hide because the ghosts will come to find you and involve you in the party

Or a silly spook may sit by your side
If you are afraid of the ghosts, you might have a not-so-scary ghost sitting next to you to comfort you

Shrouded in a daft disguise
The frightening ghosts put on blank faces, trying to act like they are spooky when they aren't really

They pretend to terrorize
These not-so-scary ghosts pretend to be terrifying, as they blend in with those spirits who are really scary

Grim grinning ghosts come out to socialize
The not-so-spooky ghosts come out and want to enjoy the fun with everyone

As the moon climbs high o'er dead oak tree
As night falls and the moon rises, the spirits start to party

Spooks arrive for the midnight spree
The spirits arrive at the party ready for a late-night celebration

Creepy creeps with eerie eyes
Spirits that have eerie eyes and behaviors arrive and join in the party fun

Start to shriek and harmonize
The spirits start to sing together, creating a beautiful and haunting choir

Grim grinning ghosts come out socialize
The fun of the party intensifies as the ghosts come out to socialize and have fun

When you hear the knell of a requiem bell
When the bell tolls, it's a sign that the dead are among us

Weird glows gleam where spirits dwell
The eerie, otherworldly aura that exists where the spirits inhabit creates a spooky glow

Restles bones etherealize
The bones of the undead come to life, etherealizing into spirits

Rise as spooks of every size
The once-bones transform into ghosts, both small and large

Grim grinning ghosts come out to socialize
The ghosts party and have a good time as they socialize with each other

Grim grinning ghosts come out
The ghosts come out from their graves to party and have a good time

Grim grinning ghosts come out
The same sentence is repeated to emphasize the excitement and fun of the spirits who come out to party and socialize

To socialize
The ghosts party, celebrate, and have a great time amidst their peers
