about

On a dark and creepy night, four ghouls crept in the darkness around a MacBook Pro, the scariest of all things to go on peoples' laps. These four Halloween Mammals took a song that they were working on for their sound album, and rewrote and modified it in the most grotesque way possible, to make a convoluted and unsettling Halloween anthem! It only took one night to write, but it was the most terrifying of their lives!

(Disclaimer: Hey Kids! Cigarettes are horrible, not in a Halloween way, but in an actual way!)

lyrics

Let me tell you a story
of about a year ago this very night
an illuminating story
which regards a flash of light

A Flash of Light Illuminates My Love!

I toiled as a singer in a halloween band
i sewed together the audience in the graveyard by hand

Nostrils flare and a subtle smirk
Red fingernails as she goes to work
Green Lighter and a sudden thought
About the truth of what all men sought!

A Flash of Light Illuminates My Love!

I built the scariest women to hear the scariest songs
when i put my foot down on the pedal, they lurch and moan along!

A Flash of Light Illuminates My Love!

The audience was electrified by the power of(at) my show
But I was enthralled by the darkly charming figure in the very final row

When I first saw her across the dark courtyard,
Twas just a flicker that made my heart beat hard
Anticipation soon filled in the rest
If I could bum a cigarette, she would not protest

A Flash of Light Illuminates My Love!

I thought that woman was one of my creations
But she turns out not to be!

Lips wrapped around the stem
Around the Paper the was between them
Transfer of Lipstick to Cylinder
There was nothing sexier!

When I brought the cigarette up to my lips, but I couldn’t find my breath,
The memories came flooding back to me of my untimely death!

Guess what, pumpkin-hole?
You're a Frankenstein Dr Frankenstein!
Now play a guitar solo!
Don't be sad, this is a party... for people who are DEAD!
Party Forever!

Thunder and Lightning!
A Flash of Light!
