Legends of Halloween Lyrics

Frank and Wolf and Drac and I were early to hit the scene

Cruising Sunset, Vine, and Fairfax in our monster limousine

There were devils, ghosts, and trolls, and tramps, and thieves and crooks, and queens

And they were all in a hurry home to get dressed for Halloween

Now these wizened gentlemen are this town's three great ghouls

They made it big with mask and wig; I'd hoped they'd teach this fool

So I gladly agreed to drive, for them, their Halloween carpool

I'd learn much more in just one night than all those years in school

Frankie's a giant here; he rolls in all the green

And Drac is not repelled by the silver of the screen

Wolfie's box office gold when his fur flies and eyes gleam

No wonder my heart beats so hard for the Legends of Halloween

The smog-filled sky grew deadly dark, obscuring all moonlight

And Wolfie howled, "Oy this finsternish makes things out of sight

But Drackie feared the crowds would come and hang around all night

"I'd like to stop by Canter's," he said, "and get myself a bite"

So in we went, the four of us, looking awful mean

Wolfie had pastrami; Frankie corned beef, extra lean

Drackie had the kishke, with the gravy on the side

And when I ordered "ham and cheese" they glared at me cross-eyed

Frankie's a giant here; he rolls in all the green

And Drac is not repelled by the silver of the screen

Wolfie's box office gold when his fur flies and eyes gleam

No wonder my heart beats so hard for the Legends of Halloween

"I'm thinking of doing another film," Frankie said to Wolfie

"In black-and-white, with CGI, an old-time modern movie

"We'll shoot in Rome, just like Leone, il mostro spaghettini

"You'll work for free," Frank said to me, "you'll play the Halloweenie"

I'd get no pay, but that's okay, I'd see myself on screen

This could be the break for me, what a lucky Halloween

The moral of this story is – and these words please recall

So many Hollywood monsters are real Mensches after all

Frankie's a giant here; he rolls in all the green

And Drac is not repelled by the silver of the screen

Wolfie's box office gold when his fur flies and eyes gleam

No wonder my heart beats so hard for the Legends of Halloween
