Scream a Little Scream

Here's a sentimental ballad for Halloween. It's sung to the tune of Dream a Little Dream of Me:

Scream a Little Scream

Night closes in around you,
humid mist rises up to surround you,
fitful moans among moss dripping trees,
scream a little scream for me.

Stealthy steps and rustlin' of leaves,
a tingling sense of danger unseen,
strain your eyes but it's too dark to see,
scream a little scream for me.

You can run but there's nowhere to go, dear,
it's a round-trip flight.
Every path leads you right back to me, dear,
you're mine tonight.

Just scream until I find you,
won't take me long to sneak up and bind you.
Gasp in heart-pounding fright as you flee,
scream a little scream for me.

Don't try to run, there's nowhere to go, dear,
can't avoid the bite.
Your creamy neck is what I adore, dear,
it's mine tonight.

Glassy eyes roll back in your head,
soon you'll be waking among the undead,
feel the razor-sharp fangs sink in deep,
scream a little scream for me.
