Another Halloween single from Glasgow Vaudevillian Popsters, Sunner!


How does it feel to be haunted by the essence of Joe Meek?

lyrics

I've been haunting you so long
Since the day that you were born
I've been trying everything - to scare
Make spooky sounds, come on why won't you hear?
Move things around, but you refuse to see them
You're not questioning the clangs
How squint the picture hangs

I'm the creaking of the floor
the squeaking of the door
I've been trying everything - to scare
Flicker the lights, groan right through the night
Move things around, but you refuse to see them
You're not questioning the clangs
How squint the picture hangs

Oh you're sure not the first
You won't be the last
I'll spook you soon, yes it is sure forecast
You're sure not the first
You won't be the last
It's true, I'll petrify you too.

You could see me in your youth,
You fell over broke a tooth
But soon you started to ignore poor me
Teenage aloof, you said you needed proof
Move things around, but now you just can't see them.

Oh you're sure not the first
You won't be the last
I'll spook you soon, yes it is sure forecast
You're sure not the first
You won't be the last
It's true, I'll petrify you too.

Then there's fire all around,
A floating candle to your gown
I've been trying everything - to scare
A scream so shrill, I'm finally fulfilled
Move flames around you, you're my burning queen then.
Now you'll finally understand,
All the power i command.
