Haunted Heartbeat (Trick or Treat Street) - Chuck Parsons
Hyper-motown
Lyrics
Hyper-Motown Funk / Soul Pop / Halloween Groove / 120 BPM / call-and-response vocals / stacked harmonies / slap bass / wah guitar / horn stabs / dance floor / candy-coated chaos
Verse 1
🎷
Midnight’s knockin’ on my candy-painted door,
Platform shoes tappin’ on the porch once more,
Moonlight drippin’ like caramel glow,
Ghosts in bell-bottoms yell, “Let’s go, let’s go!”
Chorus
👻
Trick or treat, baby, shake that soul,
Sugar in the rhythm, lose control!
Haunted heartbeat, can you feel that heat?
We’re dancin’ with the dead on Trick-or-Treat Street!
Verse 2
🕺
Pumpkin-vinyl records spin all night,
Ghouls in polyester feelin’ all right,
Cupid’s arrow got a skeleton beat,
He shot me twice — I’m back on my feet!
Bridge (Breakdown)
💫
Bassline walkin’, ghosts all talkin’,
“Who’s that spook with the Afro rockin’?”
Candy-coated horns go bwah-bwah-bwah!
Even Dracula’s doin’ the cha-cha-cha!
Final Chorus + Outro
🎤
Trick or treat, baby, spin that soul,
Sugar-shock rhythm’s takin’ control!
Boogie-man’s smilin’ from ear to ear,
‘Cause love tastes sweeter this time of year!
(fade with horns, tambourine, and kids chanting “trick or treat!”)
