Spooky
The Classics IV And Dennis Yost Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I call you up and ask you if you like to go and meet and see a movie
First you say no, you've got some plans for the night
And then you stop, and say, "All right"
Love is kinda crazy with a spooky little girl like you
You always keep me guessin', I never seem to know what you are thinkin'
And if a fella looks at you, it's for sure your little eye will be a-winkin'
And then you smile, and hold my hand
Love is kinda crazy with a spooky little girl like you
Spooky!
If you decide someday to stop this little game that you are playin'
I'm gonna tell you all what my heart's been a-dyin' to be sayin'
Just like a ghost, you've been a-hauntin' my dreams
So I'll propose on Halloween
Love is kinda crazy with a spooky little girl like you
Spooky
Spooky, oh alright
I said spooky, oh
Hey yeah, I said spooky!
Yeah yeah
The Classics IV And Dennis Yost's song Spooky is about a man who is in love with a mysterious and unpredictable woman. He tries to make plans with her but she keeps him guessing by saying no initially, but then ultimately agreeing. The man is constantly unsure of where he stands with her, as her actions and thoughts are erratic and unpredictable. Despite these challenges, he still loves her because he finds her intriguing and fascinating. The lyrics describe her as a spooky little girl who is reminiscent of a ghost who haunts his dreams. He proposes to her on Halloween, which is fitting given the eerie nature of their relationship.
The song has a catchy tune that draws you in and makes you want to sing along. The lyrics are relatable to anyone who has been in a relationship with someone they find mysterious or unpredictable. The use of the word "spooky" adds a playful and whimsical element to the song, which keeps it from becoming too serious or heavy.

In the cool of the evening when ev'rything is gettin' kind of groovy
During the pleasant evening when everything seems to be relaxed
I call you up and ask you if you like to go and meet and see a movie
I phone you and inquire if you want to go out and watch a flick with me
First you say no, you've got some plans for the night
Initially, you decline, citing prior engagements for the night
And then you stop, and say, "All right"
But then you pause, and agree to go
Love is kinda crazy with a spooky little girl like you
Romantic feelings are bizarre and irrational when dealing with an enigmatic girl like you
You always keep me guessin', I never seem to know what you are thinkin'
You always keep me uncertain, I can never predict your thoughts
And if a fella looks at you, it's for sure your little eye will be a-winkin'
And if a guy glances at you, you inevitably respond with a sly wink
I get confused 'cause I don't know where I stand
I get bewildered since I'm unsure of where we stand in our relationship
And then you smile, and hold my hand
But then you grin, and clasp my hand in yours
Love is kinda crazy with a spooky little girl like you
Romantic feelings are bizarre and irrational when dealing with an enigmatic girl like you
Spooky!

If you decide someday to stop this little game that you are playin'
If you eventually opt to conclude this romantic charade you're currently perpetuating
I'm gonna tell you all what my heart's been a-dyin' to be sayin'
I'll reveal all the emotions I've been suppressing for so long
Just like a ghost, you've been a-hauntin' my dreams
Just like a spectre, you've been obsessively on my mind during slumber
So I'll propose on Halloween
So, I'll ask for your hand in marriage on the spooky holiday
Love is kinda crazy with a spooky little girl like you
Romantic feelings are bizarre and irrational when dealing with an enigmatic girl like you

Music from a time when it didn't matter if you were ugly. It was important to make good music and this wavy melody has been playing in my head for two days... Beautiful!

As a child of the 60s, and with 3 older sisters, I was subjected to this music day in and day out, and it feels like itβs part of my DNA. Love this era and genre. Itβs in me baby!
