On Halloween
(©2015 Craig Evans & Gary Walker, BMI. All rights Reserved)
He thought he saw a ghost one night , Or something very frightening
He called his mother, "No", she said, "It must have been the lightning"
But it wasn't like no other lightning He had ever seen
It scared him so because, I think, it came on Halloween
He always tried to ride around the tunnel, Never through it
But Thursday it was late, He was alone before he knew it
The tunnel was the quickest way back home through the ravine
It would have been, except, of course, The night of Halloween
(On Halloween) Give everything a second thought
(On Halloween) Be careful that you don't get caught
You might be safe but maybe not this coming Halloween
He always loved the carnival, The lights, the sounds, the smells
He loved the rides and all the food, The animals as well
He couldn't think of anything to spoil this magic scene
But steer clear of the circus if it comes on Halloween
(On Halloween) Make sure you watch behind your back
(On Halloween) Don't listen to the one-eyed Jack
Be careful to avoid the cracks that come on Halloween
The strangest things you've ever seen
Beware of what those shadows mean
Or you may never reach thirteen

Do the Monster
© Ira Marlowe, Slow Reveal Music, BMI. All Rights Reserved
Trippin’ the light fantastic, elegant and elastic
Here you are, come so far, but it seems you’ve lost your way
Looking to find a sure way, suddenly there’s a doorway
Open wide, step inside, you’ll discover why you came
When you dance into a trance you'll know you've made it
Raise your arms, see what you've created
Do the monster
Shadowy nights and thunder, suddenly makes you wonder
Who you are, what you are is not as clear as it might seem
Suddenly something takes you, trick of the night that makes you
Lose control, scare your soul, feel the future start to change
You can dance as if your life depends upon it
Raise your arms, put it where you want it
Do the monster
'Cause a monster gets what a monster wants, and I want you
Yes, a monster gets what a monster wants, and I want you
I want you…
You've become the one you used to be afraid of
Raise your arms, show 'em what you're made of
Do the monster

The Taters Richmond, Virginia
Roots-pop: an eclectic mix of roots-rock, power-pop, country, and Americana, a sound that's been described as "Country roots- pop with the genius songwriting of 60's & 70's power-pop, …a curious mix of Mavericks, Everly Brothers, Roy Orbison and Beatles" Billboard magazine calls it "American roots-rock with thoroughly modern, totally hip sensibilities" ... more
The Taters recommends:
Jonathan Coulton & company do an amazing job of channeling the sound of the 70s on this album of early & mid-century covers!
