[BROM, spoken]
Just gather round and I'll elucidate
On what goes on outside when it gets late
Along about midnight, the ghosts and banshees
They get together for their nightly jamboree
There's things with horns and saucer eyes
Some with fangs about this size

[SKINNY WOMAN]
Some are fat

[FAT WOMAN]
And some are thin

[GHOULISH MAN]
And some don't even wear their skin

[BROM, spoken]
I'm telling ya, brother, it's a frightful sight
To see what goes on Halloween Night

(Sung)
When the spooks have a midnight jamboree
They break it up with fiendish glee
Ghosts are bad, but the one that's cursed
Is the Headless Horseman, he's the worst
[Chorus]
That's right, he's a fright
On Halloween night

[BROM]
When he goes a-joggin' 'cross the land
Holdin' his noggin in his hand
Demons take one look and groan
And hit the road for parts unknown

[Chorus]
Beware, take care, he rides alone

[BROM & Chorus]
And there's no spook like a spook who's spurned
They don't like him, and he's really burned
He swears to the longest day he's dead
He'll show them that he can get a head

[BROM]
They say he's tired of his flamin' top
He's got a yen to make a swap
So he rides one night each year
To find a head in the hollow here

[Chorus]
Now he likes them little, he likes them big
Part in the middle, or a wig
Black or white or even red
[BROM]
The Headless Horseman needs a head

[BROM & Chorus]
With a hip-hip and a clippity-clop
He's out lookin' for a top to chop
So don't stop to figure out a plan
You can't reason with a headless man

[BROM]
Now if you doubt this tale is so
I met that spook just a year ago
Now I didn't stop for a second look
But made for the bridge that spans the brook
For once you cross that bridge, my friends

[Chorus]
The ghost is through, his power ends

[BROM]
So when you're riding home tonight
Make for the bridge with all your might
He'll be down in the hollow there
He needs your head, look out, beware

[Chorus]
With a hip-hip and a clippity-clop
He's out looking for a head to swap
So don't try to figure out a plan
You can't reason with a headless man
