The Floorwalkers release "Spooks" for Halloween

Prior to Halloween, The Floorwalkers released the vaudeville-style number "Spooks" on iTunes. Watch this Ohio Sessions video to see the band perform this spine-tingling chanty for a bus-bound audience in Columbus, Ohio.

Lyrics: "Spooks"

Ghosts in the graveyard run, child, run, evils arising with the falling sun
Ghosts in the graveyard the little boy shouts 'cause mama can't save you now
Ready or not he's coming for you, darkness falls on the devils moon
Night wind howls and the raven screams, mushroom scowls, the nightmare dreams

Oh but children run cause he's coming don't you scream just keep on runnin',
Children run, cause he'll find you don't look back, he's behind you, he'll find you
My Donna keeps turning she can't sleep at night, she's got them spooks with her at night,
I've got them spooks all around my bed, chill up my spine hair rise upon my head
Taste the moonlight on your tongue, taste of blood all night long,
It's too much to bare, it's too much to live, too much to have something's gotta give.
Oh but children run cause he's coming don't you scream just keep on runnin',
Children run, cause he'll find you don't look back, he's behind you, behind you
Hearts of clover dagger and sage placed upon the unknown grave
Skull shaker, skull shaker hen's egg and thyme, a lifeless body crawls back through time
Morning wake and evil falls, black night of fear becomes us all
Twilight mist, the dragon fleas another day we live, live to see
Oh but children run cause he's coming don't you scream just keep on runnin', children run, cause he'll find you don't look back, he's behind you, he'll find you spooks
