WORDS TO KNOW & LYRICS

I’ll show you how an expert boos a boo.

Try and find me!
There’s nothing more fun than a Halloween boo
When the unexpected sneaks up on you
It’s fun for the boo-er and the boo-ee too
‘Cause when you least expect it
Boo!
(GASPS)
(BOTH CHUCKLE)
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
And when you go to a party on Halloween night
All your friends dress up and everything’s all right
But there’s something missing
So, here’s what you do
Jump out around the corner and yell
Boo!
(GASPS)
(BOTH CHUCKLE)
Ooh, ooh, ooh
On Halloween
Halloween
You never knew that you could have so much fun
And you just might scream
Just might scream
Boo!
(BOTH SCREAM)
It’s spooky funny all wrapped up in one
Ooh
Peppy experts pick a pack of perfect pleasing pumpkins.

Please pick a peppy expert helper, pumpkin pickers.

Boo!
(BOTH CHUCKLE)
If I boo with you, will you boo with me?
‘Cause when friends boo together
It’s twice as scary
So, let’s let it rip at the count of three
Get ready
One, two, three
BOTH: Boo!
(GASPS)
(BOTH CHUCKLE)
