[Lyric] Alices Last Halloween (Candy Apple Blue)

[Verse 1]
She looked like an older version of Bette Davis or Liz Taylor
Yeah, she could have been a movie star
But in this town no one gets too far
It was 1982, I was probably seven then
We lived in a little town called Monongahela

[Chorus]
It was Alice's last Halloween
I saw the knife and I heard her scream
The neighborhood was an angry mob
A museum of the macabre
Alice's last Halloween
A wicked witch with an evil scheme
Now the children of the Mon Valley
Are haunted by the ghost of Mrs. Crowley

[Verse 2]
A cold night in late October, carving pumpkins on All Hallows Eve
I was dressed as Bozo the Clown
Trick or treating as the sun went down
She was passing out home baked goods to the children of the neighborhood
It was a night that I'll always remember
[Chorus]
Alice's last Halloween
I saw the knife and I heard her scream
The neighborhood was an angry mob
A museum of the macabre
Alice's last Halloween
A wicked witch with an evil scheme
Now the children of the Mon Valley
Are haunted by the ghost of Mrs. Crowley

[Verse 3]
Found a needle in my candy apple, broken glass in my Hershey's bar
My sister Helen found a razor blade in the cookies that Alice made
The word spread like wild fire, urban legend turned living hell
What exactly happened that night, Alice never lived to tell

[Chorus]
Alice's last Halloween
I saw the knife and I heard her scream
The neighborhood was an angry mob
A museum of the macabre
Alice's last Halloween
A wicked witch with an evil scheme
Now the children of the Mon Valley
Are haunted by the ghost of Mrs. Crowley
[Outro]
Alice's last Halloween
Ghosts and goblins kill the queen
Alice's last Halloween
Alice's last Halloween
