LYRICS

Trick or treat, trick or treat, trick or treat
As we go down the street
We ask for little favours
From all our friends and neighbours
 
 
Halloween, Halloween, Halloween
We’re not fit to be seen
Our faces painted black as night
Have you ever seen such a ghostly sight?
Trick or treat, trick or treat, trick or treat
 
 
What a sight, what a sight, what a sight
As we go out at night
With mask all evilly grinning
and Jack-o-Lanterns swinging
Trick or treat, trick or treat, trick or treat
 
 
Never fear, never fear, never fear
It’s only once a year
To all our friends and neighbours
Thanks you for your favours
Trick or treat, trick or treat, trick or treat
 
 
Grizelda was a witch, a witch she wished she wasn’t
For she was as kind and gentle, just like you and me
She had a big black cat and a long pointed hat
But she felt very much the same as you and me
 
 
She tried to cast a spell, a spell to make her human
But she couldn’t get the words right, though she tried
She looked in all her books for a spell to change her looks
But nothing seemed to work until she cried
 
 
“Incan, Rican, sinacanakoo
Tell me what I have to do
Incan, Rican, sinacanakee
All good spirits please help me”
 
 
Grizelda was a witch, a witch she wished she wasn’t
But now she is human – just like you and me
She’s bought a pure white cat and wears a feathered hat
And she owns a new house across the street from me
 
 
I hope that you are not any thing you wish you wasn’t
But if you are, and don’t know who to tell
You now know what to do, for it’s sure to work for you
Just chant these words and then uncast the spell
 
 
“Incan, Rican, sinacanakoo
Tell me what I have to do
Incan, Rican, sinacanakee
All good spirits please help me”
 
 

Tonight the witches ride

All through the countryside
You’d better stay indoors tonight
Better to stay right out of sight
The night the witches ride
 
 
You see their broomsticks fly
Across the moonlit sky
You hear the swish right overhead
Even when you are tucked up in bed
The night the witches ride
 
 
I wonder where they go
But no-one seems to know
It’s safer not to be around
Better indoors all safe and sounds
The night the witches ride
