Spooky Sessions (live EP, 2014)

by O Sister!

Spooks were havin' their midnight fling The merry makin' was in full swing They shrieked themselves into a cheerful trance When the skeleton in the closet starts his dance A goblin giggled with fiendish glee A shout rang out from a big banshee Amazement was in every ghostly glance When the skeleton in the closet started to dance All the witches were in stitches While his steps made rhythmic thumps And they nearly dropped their broomsticks When he tried to do the bumps You never heard such unearthly laughter Such hilarious groans When the skeleton in the closet rattled his bones

If you don´t come back, I know I won´t last long (Feelin´low, worried so) Like a weepin´ willow weepin´ in the rain (Sad am I, gonna cry) How can I feel right done have done wrong * My spirit is gone That´s why I Hate myself for being mean to you Hate myself for being mean to you Eenie meanie minie mo I broke your heart and let you go Hate myself for being mean to you I bite my tongue for saying the things I said I slap my face for saying the things I dared Gonna send myself a telegram And tell myself what I fool I am I hate myself for saying the things I said Oh baby, please, come back, please, come back, I´ll never make you cry Stay away another day I´ll kiss myself goodbye! Gonna hide myself down in the deep deep blue ´Cause I hate myself for being mean to you ... Oh baby, If you come back, if you come back, I´ll never make you cry Stay away another day I´ll kiss myself goodbye! Hide myself down in the deeeeep blue… I hate myself for being mean to you hate myself for being mean to you

Raska-yú 03:58
Rascayú, cuando mueras, ¿qué harás tú? Rascayú, cuando mueras, ¿qué harás tú? Tú serás un cadáver nada más. Rascayú, cuando mueras, ¿qué harás tú? Oigan la historia que contóme un día El viejo enterrador de la comarca; Que era un viejo a quien la suerte un día Su único bien le arrebató la Parca. Todas las noches iba al cementerio A visitar la tumba de su hermosa Y la gente murmuraba con misterio “Es un muerto escapado de la fosa” Hizo amistad con muchos esqueletos Que salían bailando una sardana Y mezclando sus voces de ultratumba Con el croado de alguna rana Los pobrecitos iban mal vestidos Con sábanas que “ad hoc” habían robado Y el guardián se decía con recelo: “Estos muertos se me han revolucionado”. Si no es bastante tétrica la historia Los fuegos fatuos se meten en el lío Armando con sus luces tenebrosas Un cacao de padre y muy señor mío.

Ol' Man Mose 06:49
Now once there lived an old man With a very crooked nose He lived in a log hut And they called him Ol' Man Mose (Yeah!) Early one mornin´ I knocked at his door Didn't hear a single sound I ain't gonna do it no more. 'Cause, I believe Ol' Man, I believe Ol' Man I believe Ol' Man... That Ol' Man Mose is dead. (I´m telling you) I believe Ol' Man, I believe Ol' man I do believe Ol' Man... That Ol' Man Mose is dead. Now (We believe) Mose kicked the bucket (We believe) Mose kicked the bucket (We believe) Mose kicked the bucket (We believe he's dead) Oh, we belive (We believe) Mose kicked the bucket (We believe) Mose kicked the bucket (We believe) Mose kicked the bucket (We believe he's dead) I went around to the side And I peeped through the crack, I saw an ooold man Layin´ flat on his back (Yeah!) If Old Man Mose was dead asleep I did not know But after lookin' through that window (Ugh!) I ain't gonna do it no more 'Cause, I found out Ol' Man, I found out Ol' Man yeah, I found out Ol' Man... That Ol' Man Mose is dead (I´m telling you) I found out Ol' Man, What it´s all about Ol' Man I found out Ol' Man... That Ol' Man Mose is dead Now (We found out) Mose kicked the bucket (We found out ) Mose kicked the bucket (We found out ) Mose kicked the bucket (We found out he's dead) Oh, (We found out) Mose kicked the bucket (We found out ) Mose kicked the bucket (We found out ) Mose kicked the bucket (We found out he's dead) Old Man Mose is dead!

Cryin' Blues 03:04
I've been worried all day long, I don't know if I'm right or wrong. I got a feelin' that you're leavin' me. Ain't got a chance with you I see. You think you don't need me no more, but let me say before you go: I'm gonna cry and this is why: I know I got the cryin' blu-ues. With all my persistence you sure keep your distance. You treat me like I got the flu-u. I ain't no queen of Sheba, I don't dress fine. But I'm the kind of Mama that's home any time. I'm gonna cry and this is why: I know I got the cryin' blues.
