BOO Lyrics – Fries On The Side
(Opening Stanza: Robin Nelson)
The atmosphere feels strange tonight; I do not believe you are by yourself.
Please do not turn off the light; there is something inside your home.
In your peripheral vision, the hallway appears to glow.
Something shaped like a cylinder floats in to let you know.
(Continued Narrative: Robin Nelson)
…that it is a “spooky ghost”.
It knocks over a mug and then it shakes a lamp; it moans a bit and then slightly moves the rug.
It floats around your room; it is about one meter tall.
It looks exactly like a bedsheet draped over a basketball.
(Interjection: Mike Pitts)
Laughter
Behold! The ghost of— Halloween!
(Dialogue Scene: Robin Nelson, Mike Pitts)
You ask him what he wants; he blows a coldish wind.
“I have come here to haunt!” he declares through his cartoonish grin.
Right then the lights flicker as you shake in your pants,
while watching the specter somewhat wiggle half of a decorative plant.
(Main Refrain: Robin Nelson & Mike Pitts)
Boo! I have got you; your mind cannot process what you see, and now you tremble at the fright of me.
Boo! I have got you; there is no escape and I avow: I am a ghost and this is my house now.
(Pause: Mike Pitts, Robin Nelson)
Laughter
Are you frightened yet?
No?
What?!
(Rising Action: Robin Nelson, Mike Pitts)
The ghost looks quite upset. “Why are you not scared?!” he exclaims.
You mention he looks a bit like Hi Five Ghost from “Regular Show”.
“I do not know what that is,” he says— he must have died before that show.
So you say he looks like a Pac-Man ghost, but white. “I do not care about my appearance!”
“Does this not terrify you?” the demon screams as it scoots a chair a bit to the side.
“No, not really.” “Grr! Then it is time to unleash a new evil like this world has never seen!”
(Climax: Robin Nelson)
In walks a skeleton; the dead rises tonight.
Its bones are rattling a symphony of death and demise.
It has no eyes; it is walking all on its own.
It promptly trips over the scooted chair and breaks all of its bones.
(Reaction: Mike Pitts)
Ah… Great!
(Final Refrain: Robin Nelson & Mike Pitts)
Boo! I have got you; your mind cannot process what you see, and now you tremble at the fright of me.
Boo! I have got you; there is no escape and I avow: I am a ghost and this is my house now.
Boo!
