PUMPKIN POWER
© words and music by C. Stewart/ Joice Marie ( Oct. 14, 2009)
Pumpkin power
Midnights near
My flashlight is the moon
Pumpkin power
Every year
I sIng a haunted tune
Sing a little song of Halloween
insert a screaming ghost
Sing about a headless horseman
Or what scares you the most
collaborate with Dracula
Rock out with daddys mummy
I'll try to refrain from dripping blood
That would not be funny
Pumpkin power
Midnights near
My flashlight is the moon
Pumpkin power
Every year
I sIng a haunted tune
Sing a little song of Halloween
insert a screaming ghost
Sing about a headless horseman
Or what scares you the most
EVERYBODY SING....
collaborate with Dracula
Rock out with daddys mummy
I'll try to refrain from dripping blood

Howdy, Joice, Calvin, Gus here. Either of you into carvin'
Jackolanterns? I've seen some amazing stuff where they only
carve partway through, then use a very bright light inside

Hey JM & Calvin,
What a great hook. It reminds me of a mantra Linus from "The Peanuts" would have invoked in the hopes of drawing out The Great Pumpkin!!
That aside, it's a fun song on a variety of levels. First, I think the line "My flashlight is the moon" is a terrific child-like idea.
And second, how can we not chuckle maniacally at the references to our co-horts here at JPF?:
collaborate with Dracula
Rock out with daddys mummy
I'll try to refrain from dripping blood
That would not be funny
I have to say, it's always an adventure to read YOUR particular collaborations, L & M. Your mastery of the language....your appreciation of the nuances of word-play...and your passion for following your OWN paths always make for a unique entertainment experience.
So thanks for sharing. I hope to check out your other Halloween offerings as well...
Until then, have a good evening,
Beth

Nice & Cute, Gang!
IF it's truly a "Kid's Song" I'd recommend maybe "Flap a Wing with Dracula"...since "Collaborate" is kinda Adult Vocab...
Or maybe "Share a GRIN with Dracula"...or..."Do-Si-Do with Dracula"...
Perhaps also "DUET WITH a screaming ghost"..too..."Insert", too. is more Adult-Speak than Kiddie-Lang--JMO.
KOS...& Overall, CONGRATS, it's a Blast!
Good Luck with it!
Big Hugs,
Stan

Hi Joice & Calvin,
I like the "my flashlight is the moon" too...lots of great lines here and a fun hook.
Great collab!
