Goth Christmas

A few Milwaukee bands have written Halloween songs and I wanted to try my hand at it. I’m desperately trying to channel Peter Murphy with the vocal, and my guitar line is not as precise as I would like it to be but I’m really happy with how this all hangs together. Thanks to my wife for the background vocal! Hope it makes you wanna paint your face and dance your ass off.
Lyrics:
We’re going to Hot Topic and we’re gonna buy some boots
And slutty fishnet stockings for the bash
We’re going to watch Tim Burton movies, even the crappy ones
Then Jason, Freddy and Michael come to slash
All my favorite people are excited right now
Cause everything they love is come to dance
The skeletons and monsters and the sticky spider webs
You know that you can love them too if you give them half a chance
It’s time for goth christmas
The most magical time of year
It’s time for goth christmas
Instead of cheer, there’s fear
Hot sauce in our treat bags, so we’re giving lots of tricks
Haunting the whole city, a dark takeover
We wear our makeup masks to channel our true selves
Haunted spirit skeletons become our darkest lovers
It’s our time of year, the day belongs to us
You can have your holidays with family and stuff
The night is our special time, the darkness is our friend
The season of the spooky; why does it ever end?
