lyrics

as night steals the day
mothers begin to pray
the dead are on parade
while children hide from play
the dead are on parade tonight
with moonlit ghostly howls
the clouds decline the starlight shine
the werewolves hunt and prowl
the ravens pluck the dead man's eye
crows they swarm above the pines
as skeletons dance the living all but cry
the dead are on parade tonight
so shut your windows tight
lock the doors and hide the light
this is nothing for human sight
gloom and doom everywhere
what else my crawl from hell
the devils and demons stop and stare
at the ringing of churches bells
the night is done and dead return
to their rightful graves
the ghouls and ghosts are all spurned
by a heavenly glaive
no fiends no screams
all hellions have sneaked
back to their seven halls below
the grass and streams
the trees and creeks
move with the silent scene
so do not weep it's safe to sleep
day will break the sun shall beam
so thank the lord your soul to keep
now the dead have gone away
