The Headless Horseman

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
Some don't even bother to wear their skin!

Well I'm tellin' you, brother
It's a frightful sight
To see what goes on in the night!

When the ghosts have a midnight jamboree
They break it up with fiendish glee
Spooks are bad, but the one that's cursed
Is the Headless Horseman: He's the worst

When that he goes a-joggin' across the land
Holdin' a noggin in his hand
The demons take one look and groan
And hit the road for parts unknown

And there's no wraith like a spook that's spurned
They don't like him and he's really burned!
He swears to the longest day he's dead
That he'll show them that he can get a head!

The Headless Horseman needs a head!
The Headless Horseman needs a head!

So 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 tip your top if it'll fit

And he likes them little, likes them big
(Part in the middle or a wig)
Black or white or even red
(The head)
The Headless Horseman needs a head!

The Headless Horseman needs a head!
The Headless Horseman needs a head!

It's after midnight, so listen good!
Better stay at home, like you should
'Cause right outside, and waitin' there

(Is the Headless Horseman!!)

Beware!

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!
