Spooky Shenanigins

I know exactly what you must be thinking I've possibly gone mad and have been drinking Neither of these statements are actually true Please believe me what I'm going to tell you I was walking home from town late last night Passed through the graveyard I got an awful fright A coffin which I thought was safely underground Suddenly came alive making a terrible sound The coffin lid opened a fraction I could see inside Expecting to see a body of someone who had died I peered in and there wasn't a body there A spooky tale with you I really had to share My walk home was now a very fast run Seeing that I can assure isn't jolly or fun I poured myself a whisky to settle myself down Certainly won't forget walking home from town
