This is Nightmare Night

By dashie76

Sung to the tune of "This is Halloween"

I do not own the film "The Nightmare before Christmas," nor do I own any of the songs therein.  This is purely a fan made work.



Fillies and colts from everywhere,
Wouldn't you like to have a good scare?
Follow us at the hour of midnight,
And see our town of Nightmare Night.

This is Nightmare Night.
This is Nightmare Night.
Shadowbolts fly in a deadly plight.

This is Nightmare Night.
Everypony dies of fright.
Demons come from the land that lies beyond the light.

Monsters, zombies, witches, what a sight!
In our town of Nightmare Night.

I am the pegasus climbing on your roof,
Eyes red as blood and knives in my hooves.
I am the hydra hiding under your bed,
Necks like snakes and four hungry heads.

This is Nightmare Night.
This is Nightmare Night.
Nightmare Night!  Nightmare Night!
Nightmare Night!  Nightmare Night!

In this town,
All night long,
Everypony hail to the Moon Mare's song.

Come, make haste!
Everypony loves this place
And all of us are waiting for the next surprise!

But don't stay too late at night,
'Cause just behind you out of sight,
Something's waiting to devour you, and you'll

SCREAM!

This is Nightmare Night!
Black and blue and ghostly white!

Aren't you scared?!
Well, that's alright.
Say it once, twice, and thrice,
Take a chance to roll the dice,
Ride with the moon 'cross the sky.

Demons, what a sight!
DEMONS, WHAT A SIGHT!
In our town of Nightmare Night.

I am the tall one hiding in the leaves,
Lacking a face and as high as the trees.
I am the who, what, why when you cry,
I m the wind blowing through the sky.
I am the Mare in the Moon at night,
Filling your dreams to the brim with fright.

This is Nightmare Night.
This is Nightmare Night.
Nightmare Night!  Nightmare Night!
Nightmare Night!  Nightmare Night!

Little ponies everywhere,
Life's no fun without a good scare.
That's our job, so tremble with fright
In our town on Nightmare Night.

Come, make haste!
Everypony loves this place!
And all of us are waiting for the next surprise!

Nightmare Moon might catch you very soon
And pin you to a tree, slowly rip you limb by

LIMB!

This is Nightmare Night!
Dark and void of light!
Won'tcha please make way for a very special mare?!
Our mare Nightmare is queen of the Nightmare Town.
Everypony hail to the Nightmare Queen now.

This is Nightmare Night.
This is Nightmare Night.
Nightmare Night!  Nightmare Night!
NIGHTMARE NIGHT!  NIGHTMARE NIGHT!

In this town,
All night long,
Everypony hail to the Moon Mare's song.

La!  La!  La!  La la
La!  La!  La!  La la 
La!  La!  La!  La la
La!  La la la!

Wheeeeeeeeee!
