HAPPY LITTLE ZOMBIES - by Ray O'Bannon


there's this house, they say it's haunted
you say that's a silly notion
only fools believe such simple lies
must admit I have to wonder
what you'd say if you've been wrong
and all those ghosts should come to clarify

Chorus:
cause in my dreams those ghosts are real
the vampires all have lots to drink
there's phantoms dancing in the streets
and brains for happy little zombies
happy little zombies

there's this place down by the river
folks say werewolves gather there
and in the night you're sure to hear them prowling
you say that's just a lot of nonsense
still I just can't help but wonder
what you'd say if you should hear them howling

(Chorus)

how can you be all that certain
there's no truth to all those legends
how can you fight back your terror
when you see them reaching out for you

now there's this rumor going round
a vampire's lurking somewhere near
such frightening news the folks are telegraphing
can't imagine it could bite you
probably find you much too funny
hard to bite when you're still laughing

cause in my dreams those ghosts are real
the vampires all have lots to drink
there's phantoms dancing in the streets
and brains for happy little zombies
in my dreams those ghosts are real
the vampires all have lots to drink
there's phantoms dancing in the streets
and brains for happy little zombies

happy little zombies
happy little zombies
happy little zombies...
