The Headless Horseman

歌詞

Now, gather 'round while I elucidate On what happens outside when it gets late 'Long about midnight, the ghosts and banshees Get together for their nightly jamborees There's ghosts with horns and saucer eyes And some with fangs about this size Some short and fat, some tall and thin And there's some don't even bother to wear their skin Oh, I'm tellin' you, brother, it's a frightful sight See what goes on in the night 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 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 And there's no rack like a spook who that'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 Oh close all the windows, lock the doors Unless you're careful, he'll get yours Don't think he'll hesitate a bit 'Cause he'll clip your top if it'll fit He likes 'em little, likes 'em big Parted in the middle, or a wig Black or white or even red The Headless Horseman needs a head With a hip-hip and a clippity-clop He's out lookin' for a head to chop So don't stop to figure out a plan You can't reason with a headless man
