[Verse 1]
The only light inside this tomb (Ah)
Is coming from so high above us (Ah)
Watching through a tiny window, the moon is looking on
Down on your knees, down if you please
While I blindfold your eyes, hahahah
The two of us are gonna play a little game
I think that I will call it

[Chorus 1]
Trick or treat, let us go hide and seek
Follow me into the night where the sun don't shine but the moon is bright

[Refrain]
Lucy is sleeping in one of seven graves
Now you decide, which ones are trick or treat

[Chorus 2]
Trick or treat, let us go hide and seek
I can only let you fail this twice, the third time you must be right

[Refrain]
Lucy is sleeping in one of seven graves
Now you decide, which ones are trick or treat

[Verse 2]
You better start digging
She could be dying while we speak
You better start digging
Before the worms have their feast
