Intro - MC 1, Spoken
Oi!
Who's got a skeleton on the Hills Hoist?
Who's knocking?
Ghost, wipe your feet! [Beat Drops]
Chorus - All MCs
Deadset, it's Halloween, the whole street's cooked,
Ghost on the porch and a witch on the roof.
Trick or treat, mate, better fill that sack,
Give us a sultana, we're not coming back!
From the bush to the beach, from west to east,
Things that go bump and a snag for the feast.
No snow, no sleigh, just a full moon glow,
It's Halloween down under, the weirdos show!
Verse 1 - MC 1
Six o'clock, sun lighting up the sky,
Vampire in thongs with a mozzie in his eye.
Kids hit the pavement, pillowcases for loot,
Bushranger in a cape, Dracula in footy boots.
Mum's got Choc Tops, Dad's dressed as a tradie,
Zombie at the servo says the petrol's too shady.
Neighbour's fog machine sets off the smoke alarm,
Witch on the letterbox is freaking out the farm.
Verse 2 - MC 2
Head out bush where the black cockatoos cry,
Red dirt underfoot and a blood-red sky.
Old mate tells stories by the campfire flame,
Says something in the scrub knows everyone's name.
Drop bear in the branches, that's what they claim,
But the only thing dropping is my mate Shane.
Bunyip in the billabong, Yowie on the track,
Shane's already legged it, ain't coming back!
Chorus - All MCs
Deadset, it's Halloween, the whole street's cooked,
Ghost on the porch and a witch on the roof.
Trick or treat, mate, better fill that sack,
Give us a sultana, we're not coming back!
From the bush to the beach, from west to east,
Things that go bump and a snag for the feast.
No snow, no sleigh, just a full moon glow,
It's Halloween down under, the weirdos show!
Verse 3 - MC 3
Sydney Harbour glows, there's a bat in the sky,
Vampire on the ferry, collar up Melbun's got a ghost who's missed the last tram,
Now he's haunting the laneway, annoying the band.
Brizbin bin chicken's nicking chips in a cape, Gold Coast Dracula's got a fake gold chain.
Perth has a phantom tearing up the clubs,
Adelaide's got spirits in the old stone pubs.
Verse 4 - MC 4
Backyard bash, fairy lights, esky full of ice,
Skeleton on the barbie looking strangely nice.
Werewolf in a bucket hat yelling, "How ya goin'?"
Auntie's doing Nutbush, party overflowing.
Mozzies attack, got a huntsman on the wall,
Possum stole the party pies and made off with them all.
Then the power cuts out and the whole crew freezes,
A voice from the darkness says, "Who nicked me cheeses?"
Bridge - MCs Trading Bars
Is that a ghost or a bloke in a sheet?
If it asks for a lift, don't give it a seat!
Is that the Grim Reaper waiting out front?
Nah, he's after the esky and a cold Bundy (laughs)
Dark Beat Switch - MC 1 and MC 2
MC 1:
The street goes quiet, the moon hangs low,
Something's in the scrub where the cold winds blow.
MC 2:
A knock at the gate, but there's nobody there,
Just muddy footprints and a chill in the air.
MC 1:
A note on the doorstep, handwriting "Same time next year. And bring more stuff!" [Final Chorus - All MCs]
Deadset, it's Halloween, the whole street's cooked,
Ghost on the porch and a witch on the roof.
Trick or treat, mate, better fill that sack,
Give us a sultana, we're not coming back!
From the bush to the beach, from west to east,
Things that go bump and a snag for the feast.
No snow, no sleigh, just a full moon glow,
It's Halloween down under, the weirdos show!
Outro - Spoken
Who's got the keys?
Who's got the esky?
Who's put a drop bear on the Hills Hoist?
Nah, stuff that. I'm going home!
