Grim Grinning Ghosts (From "The Haunted Mansion")

When hinges creak in door-less chambers
And strange and frightening sounds echo through the halls
Whenever candle-lights flicker where the air is deathly still
That is the time when ghosts are present
Practicing their terror with ghoulish delight

When the crypt doors creak and the tombstones quake
(Spooks come out for a singing wake)
Happy haunts materialize
(And begin to vocalize)
Grim grinning ghosts come out to socialize

Now don't close your eyes and don't try to hide
(Or a silly spook may sit by your side)
Shrouded in a daft disguise
(They pretend to terrorize)
Grim grinning ghosts come out to socialize

As the moon climbs high over a dead oak tree
(Spooks arrive for the midnight spree)
Creepy creeps with eerie eyes
(Start to shriek and harmonize)
Grim grinning ghosts come out to socialize

When you hear the knell of a requiem bell
(Weird glows gleam where spirits dwell)
Restless bones etherealize
(Rise as spooks of every size)

When the crypt doors creak and the tombstones quake
Spooks come out for a swinging wake
Happy haunts materialize
And begin to vocalize
Grim grinning ghosts come out to socialize

Now don't close your eyes and don't try to hide
Or a silly spook may sit by your side
Shrouded in a daft disguise
(They pretend to terrorize)
(Grim grinning ghosts come out to socialize)

As the moon climbs high over a dead oak tree
Spooks arrive for the midnight spree
Creepy creeps with eerie eyes
Start to shriek and harmonize
Grim grinning ghosts come out to socialize

When you hear the knell of a requiem bell
Weird glows gleam where spirits dwell
Restless bones etherealize
Rise as spooks of every size

When the crypt doors creak and the tombstones quake
Spooks come out for a swinging wake
Happy haunts materialize and begin to vocalize
Grim grinning ghosts come out to socialize

Now don't close your eyes and don't try to hide
Or a silly spook may sit by your side
Shrouded in a daft disguise
They pretend to terrorize
Grim grinning ghosts come out to socialize

As the moon climbs high over a dead oak tree
Spooks arrive for the midnight spree
Creepy creeps with eerie eyes
Start to shriek and harmonize
Grim grinning ghosts come out socialize

When you hear the knell of a requiem bell
Weird glows gleam where spirits dwell
Restless bones etherealize
Rise as spooks of every size
