Who flits around from coast-to-coast
He loves to zoom

so many corona ghosts
joined by gun ghosts
other ghosts as well 
just too many ghosts

I have heard you still play them
Those olde, sad songs you loved
Spirited fingertips touch ...
Upon the dusty keys
And haunting melodies

A ghostly blessing
if you toss a modern coin
through time and the barred front door.

the ghosts and ghouls began to sing

A ghost tried to scare people off
But they gave him the big brush-off
He cried his heart out
And started to sprout
Then suddenly he took off

The Ghost Ii

The man was scared by a ghost
Then ran into a giant post
He was knocked out cold
Woke up and was told
That the ghost he feared had been toast
