From the recording The Gimme Gimme Ghost (2020)
Lyrics
Well, who goes runnin’ around on Halloween night?
(The Gimme Gimme Ghost!)
If you’re passin’ out candy, who’s gonna give you a fright?
(The Gimme Gimme Ghost!)
Who’s gonna help the little children out tonight?
(The Gimme Gimme Ghost!)
(He’s the Gimme Gimme Ghost!)
He comes from a place that’s far beyond the grave
(The Gimme Gimme Ghost!)
And when it comes to sweets, he’s always been a slave
(The Gimme Gimme Ghost!)
But he ate too many, and now all he can say is…
Trick or treat, smell my feet
Gimme gimme somethin’ good to eat
If you don’t, I don’t care
I’ll just give you one big scare!
Beware!
(He’s the Gimme Gimme Ghost!)
You better give him a treat
Oh, yeah!
(He’s the Gimme Gimme Ghost!)
Or you’re gonna smell his feet
His feet they smell as awful as can be
(The Gimme Gimme Ghost!)
‘Cause he soaks ‘em all year long in formaldehyde tea
(The Gimme Gimme Ghost!)
But on Halloween night he sets those bad boys free
(The Gimme Gimme Ghost!)
(Hey, he’s the Gimme Gimme Ghost!)
He’s gonna make sure the kids get the best treats that they can
(The Gimme Gimme Ghost!)
So don’t you put any pennies in their hand
(The Gimme Gimme Ghost!)
You know the Gimme Gimme Ghost has got a brand new band
(He’s the Gimme Gimme Ghost!)
He’s got Bones McGhee on the rhythm
He’s got The Necromancer on the groove
He’s got Wolfman blowin’ on the saxophone
Like he’s howlin’ at the moon!
Blow, Wolfman, blow!
And he says trick or treat, smell my feet
Gimme gimme somethin’ good to eat
If you don’t, I don’t care
I’ll just give you one big scare!
Beware!
(He’s the Gimme Gimme Ghost!)
You better give him a treat
Oh, yeah!
(He’s the Gimme Gimme Ghost!)
Or you’re gonna smell his feet
Beware!
He’s the Gimme Gimme Ghost!
You better give him a treat
Oh, yeah!
He’s the Gimme Gimme Ghost!
Or you’re gonna smell his feet
Gimme!
