1.
Once there was a ghostie
he lived in a small house
he was big and scary
and behaved just like a louse
he howled when it was bedtime
and he rattled on the stairs
and late at night he'd moan and groan
like some hairy bears.
Chorus:
Poor deluded ghosie,
spooking every day
driving all the family pets
and the friends away
Poor deluded ghostie
spooking every night
giving every one in here
ever such a fright
2.
And the family where the ghost lived
they were fed up quite a lot
they never got no sleep at night
the ghostie's all they got
and they didn't even know
should they move house or should they stay
if only they could get that ghost
safely out of the way
(chorus)
3.
But a little boy (girl) called (...)
said I know what we must do
I'll grab that ghostie and I'll say,
I want to talk to you.
Now listen you big ghostie,
stop your howling, you great tent,
why don't you stop your spooking
and instead become my friend?
(final chorus)
So now the friendly ghostie
doesn't spook all day
instead with (...) his new friend
he has some fun to play
And now the friendly ghostie
doesn't spook all night
he hides in (...)s bed in case
a ghost gives him a fright.
