Smashing Pumpkins, Spilling Seeds

On Halloween eve,  mystical full moon

two lighted hearted fools, a sea of dark

sailors listen for the siren's musical tune

journey into the unknown they embark

clouds roll in thin veil immortal realm

Truedessa at the bow,  keeping watch

ghostly tales of those sinking at the helm

Captain Pat,  "I could use a shot of scotch"

eerie silence cuts through the moonlight

bubbling  cauldron,  bewitching spell

above the black ravens caw in the night

opening doorways to where spirits dwell

ghosts awakening, pirating ships to sail

hovering above a witch on her  broom

serpents rattling,  the night grows pale

riding black waters,  waves  of gloom

these two just wanted to have some fun

flashing the bat signal high in the sky

they needed to call in their top guns

they would make any evil ghouls fry

first to arrive the mighty red tailed hawk

seeking adventure always ready for a tale

he is known for sporting a giant mohawk

a keen eye tending bar, filling mugs with ale

welcome to the party on Halloween eve

arriving now, on dragon's fiery  breath

none other than the masked ninja wannabe

he's been known to slay a guitar to death

special guest appearance by the blue guy

offering to sing on deck "The monster mash"

impersonating  Elvis wearing a black tie

Truedessa's sure it will be graveyard smash

Now, the cat is mystified at the new crew

but, Captain Pat is gleaming with delight

another ship in view, who would've knew

Captain Red Shoe's banner sails in the night

Glenn couldn't stay away, he likes these tales

he's sharp always knows when to enter on cue

no horse in sight so he rode on a giant whale

he enjoys a long story,  writing a script or two

Mary,  Claudia & Sherry in a hot air balloon

they like  to float freely in a basket in the sky

taking in the rare view under a blood moon

it is said they are willing to fight bad guys

   shh - off in the distance a wolf howls
   or was that just Mary's 3 dogs..

two light hearted fools are enjoying the bash

Captain Pat & Truedessa dance to a sultry tune

suddenly a giant pumpkin hits the deck smash

guests scatter yelling "who is that crazy loon"

riding the steely sky a hobgoblin causes fright

looks like the party is about to take a turn

throwing fiery pumpkins from left to right

stumbling to their feet as the water churns

load the cannon this goblin we will defeat

Truedessa and Captain Pat come up with a plan

Ninja Wannabe calls his dragon to his feet

the trio board, off to fight this pumpkin man

with a swift SWoosh and whooSH off they fly

slashing darkness, with lightning speed

fiery orange pumpkins illuminate the  sky

afraid ground support they will surely need

Brian bellowing "all hands on deck"

reloading the cannon, putting out fires

they will not let this mighty ship wreck

Claudia quietly sketches all that transpires

Captain Red Shoes  now takes command

"listen up we don't go down without a fight"

together with the blue guy they make a stand

storm of flaming arrows blasts into the night

Truedessa  sends heart thumping vibrations

Ninja  slowly inches closer, with a thump

thick  air ripples with a wobbly sensation

on the back of hobgoblin Captain Pat jumps

wrestling this pumpkin goon in the sky

Zipping and hissing

  bones snapping and cracking

Truedessa, hurls a magic stone high

a gash of light from the heavens above

striking the goblin bursting his evil seeds

falling ,Captain Pat gives him a final shove

Truedessa tosses Capt'n Pat some magical beads

he grabs hold as the dragon leads them home

safe and sound back upon their sturdy ship

the wicked hobgoblin will no longer roam

the guests below clap with glee what a trip

Time to celebrate until the morning sun

Ninja rockin' out on his guitar all sing along

untied the friends defeated evil and won

Truedessa & Capt'n  Pat together are strong

Now, this is a  Halloween party cruise
Bjorn, you lead as you dance with bears
everyone put on your red dancing shoes
let the laughter of friends fill the air
