Lyrics[]
[Verse 1]
Tell me the story of the ghost in the castle
"I think this tale will be too scary for you"
So tell me where the monster brought the young lady
"Nobody ever knew what happened to her, my baby"
[Pre-chorus]
Shadows and ghosts filling up the darkest night
Chasing you, wishing to drink your blood
We have a friend, and tonight his party's on
The "Happy Phantom Party" bash
[Chorus]
Throughout of the night all the presence are welcome
This is the night of the happy phantom
Dance in the dark, floating into your bedroom
This is the night of the happy phantom, oh yeah
[Verse 2]
Tell me the reason why I can't sleep at night
"Because your room is haunted by some lost soul"
So tell me why the monster kidnapped the baby
"Nobody ever knew what happened to him, my baby"
