SPOOKY TOWN
By Doc Wallace
Down in Spooky Town
They all come to stay.
The girls look for spooky boys
so they can play.
And boys look for spooky girls
so they can get some too.
Then they all run around
Wil'in on me and you!
Bring out your ball bats
Your spacers and your goners
Show em who the bosses are
Back em in the corners.
Soon they be ghostin'
Skatin' off for reals
Addin' to the chill-bone
That's just how it feels.
Back down in Spooky Town
Ends another night
Boys n girls be won'drin'
How it end so Fright?!
