It's October and the right time for some fun...do you still remember some Halloween songs? I'll start with one, maybe you could add yours? Rufus Jack-o-Lantern Was a very scarey sight, With triangle eyes, a twisted mouth, And a huge hole for a nose. Rufus Jack-o-Lantern Is a ghost tale so they say, But the children know how the story goes, How he came to scare them one day. There must have been some magic in the candle mom put in him, For when they struck a match to it, he began to laugh at them. Rufus Jack-o-Lantern Was alive as he could be, and the children say he could scream all day just like any banshee. Rufus Jack-o-Lantern Was a very scarey sight, With triangle eyes, a twisted mouth, And a huge hole for a nose. Rufus Jack-o-Lantern Is a ghost tale so they say, But the children know how the story goes, How he came to scare them one day. He chased them down to the old graveyard with a broomstick and a mop. He scared them half to death until he came to a sudden stop. Oh, Rufus Jack-o-Lantern, His time had come to go. He had to stop his scary chase When his candle would no longer glow. Thumpity, thump, thump, Thumpity, thump, thump, Look at Rufus go. Thumpity, thump, thump, Thumpity, thump, thump, Watch out or he'll get your TOE!

THE MONSTER MASH
I was working in the lab late one night When my eyes beheld an eerie sight For my monster from his slab began to rise And suddenly to my surprise
He did the mash He did the monster mash The monster mash It was a graveyard smash He did the mash It caught on in a flash He did the mash He did the monster mash
From my laboratory in the castle east To the master bedroom where the vampires feast The ghouls all came from their humble abodes To get a jolt from my electrodes
They did the mash They did the monster mash The monster mash It was a graveyard smash They did the mash It caught on in a flash They did the mash They did the monster mash
The zombies were having fun The party had just begun The guests included Wolf Man Dracula and his son
The scene was rockin', all were digging the sounds Igor on chains, backed by his baying hounds The coffin-bangers were about to arrive With their vocal group, "The Crypt-Kicker Five"
They played the mash They played the monster mash The monster mash It was a graveyard smash They played the mash It caught on in a flash They played the mash They played the monster mash
Out from his coffin, Drac's voice did ring Seems he was troubled by just one thing He opened the lid and shook his fist And said, "Whatever happened to my Transylvania twist?"
It's now the mash It's now the monster mash The monster mash And it's a graveyard smash It's now the mash It's caught on in a flash It's now the mash It's now the monster mash
Now everything's cool, Drac's a part of the band And my monster mash is the hit of the land For you, the living, this mash was meant too When you get to my door, tell them Boris sent you
Then you can mash Then you can monster mash The monster mash And do my graveyard smash Then you can mash You'll catch on in a flash Then you can mash Then you can monster mash

TITLE: The Purple People Eater
Well I saw the thing comin' out of the sky It had one long horn and one big eye I commenced to shakin' and I said, hoo-eee It looks like a purple people eater to me
It was a one-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater One-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater A one-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater Sure looks strange to me - One eye?
Well he came down to earth and he lit in a tree I said Mr. Purple People Eater, don't eat me I heard him say in a voice so gruff I wouldn't eat you 'cause you're so tough
One horn?
I said Mr. Purple People Eater, what's your line He said eatin' purple people and it sure is fine But that's not the reason that I came to land I wanna get a job in a rock 'n' roll band
Well bless my soul, rock and roll, flyin' purple people eater Pigeon-toed, under-growed, flyin' purple people eater We wear short shorts - friendly little people eater What a sight to see - Ow!
And then he swung from the tree and he lit on the ground And he started to rock, a-really rockin' around It was a crazy ditty with a swingin' tune Sing a bop-bop-a-loopa-loppa-lum-bam-boom
Well bless my soul, rock and roll, flyin' purple people eater Pigeon-toed, under-growed, flyin' purple people eater I like short shorts - flyin' purple people eater What a sight to see - Purple people?
And then he went on his way and then what do ya know I saw him last night on a TV show He was blowing it out, a-really knockin' em dead Playin' rock and roll music through the horn in his head

Old Witch, Old Witch
Chicken my chicken my creamy crow, I went to the well to wash my toe, When I got there the water was low, What time is it, Old Witch, Old Witch? What time is it Old Witch? Old Witch, Old Witch, she lives in a ditch, And combs her hair with a hickory switch. She lives on nails and snails and flies And if you go near she'll wobble her eyes, Oh, she'll wobble her eyes, Oh, she'll wobble her eyes.
Chicken my chicken my creamy cran, I went to the well to wash my hand, When I got there the water was sand, What time is it, Old Witch, Old Witch? What time is it Old Witch?
Old Witch, Old Witch, she lives in a ditch, And combs her hair with a hickory switch. She's fat as a feather but tight in the middle And when she talks she sounds like a fiddle. Oh, she sound like a fiddle! Oh, she sound like a fiddle!
Chicken my chicken my creamy crase, I went to the well to wash my face, But, when I got there the water was lace, What time is it, Old Witch, Old Witch? What time is it Old Witch?
Old Witch, Old Witch, she lives in a ditch, And combs her hair with a hickory switch. She sleeps on a bed with straw and corn And when she snores she sounds like a horn, Oh, she sound like a horn! Oh, she sound like a horn!
Chicken my chicken my creamy cregs, I went to the well to wash my legs, And when I got there the water was dregs, What time is it, Old Witch, Old Witch? What time is it Old Witch?
Old Witch, Old Witch, she lives in a ditch, And combs her hair with a hickory switch. And as I said she's very fat And when she walks she jumps like a cat, Oh, she jumps like a cat! Oh, she jumps like a cat!

I learned this one in school when I was a child!
TONIGHT IS THE NIGHT
Tonight is the night when dead leaves fly like witches on switches across the sky. When elf and sprite flit through the night on a moony sheen. IT'S HALLOWEEN!!!
Tonight is the night when leaves make a sound like a gnome in his home under the ground. When spooks and trolls creep out of the holes, all mossy and green. IT'S HALLOWEEN!!!
Tonight is the night when pumpkins stare through sheaves and leaves everywhere. When ghoul and ghost and goblin host dance round their Queen.
IT'S HALLOWEEN!!!
