Do They Know It's Halloween?

Once a year on a spooky night It's Hallowe'en, and what a fright! Young boys and ghouls, in ghoulish disguise They cover their skin, conceal their eyes A grave mistake to be out When the ghosts are about It's Hallowe'en... our time to be afraid In the rest of the world, they don't observe This bash which has become our biggest concern Latvia, Laos, Chad, Peru We need their help, or else we're through They don't know the fear we endure once a year All Hallow's Eve, we are afraid! Do they know it's Hallowe'en tonight? (Interlude) It's October 31st, could it get any worse? Children on streets, begging for treats Drowning in a bucket of apples bobbing Parents are hiding, our babies are sobbing The undead have returned They're freaking us out Dragging us down, so we shout: "Help us! Help us! Save our souls!" We're dying of fear, and they don't even know it They think we've got it all What we need is a team To help us forget, forget Hallowe'en "Fools! You think you can stop Hallowe'en?" "The world can't hear your useless plea!" "It's too late! Our orange and black plague will soon consume them all!" "Then everyone will understand the true meaning of Hallowe'en..." "Pure terror!" We're all fed up, we've had enough Enough, enough, enough, enough! Trick! Caramel apples will make you sick Treat! And all those sweets will rot your teeth Ouija board, ouija board (spell this!) We don't want you here no more The writing's on the tombstone Beneath the willow tree No more razorblades in our kids' candy Dead dogs and broomsticks Pumpkins and flames We're ending this night, ending the shame! Do they know it's Hallowe'en tonight?
