Lyrics — “The House Dressed Itself” by @chris70

[Intro] At the crooked end of Briar Lane, A pumpkin rang the dinner bell. The moon came down in a paper hat To ask the house what happened well. [Verse 1] Miss Morrow kept a jar of rain Beside her Sunday shoes, And every time the clock struck nine, The wallpaper changed its hues. A tiny ghost in a waistcoat Was polishing the stairs; He bowed and said, “The guests are here— They’ve brought their own affairs.” [Chorus] Come in, come in, the door’s unlatched, The floorboards know your name. There’s room beside the talking rug, And seats around the flame. Come in, come in, but mind your hat— The portraits like to stare. Tonight the house has dressed itself And saved you the best chair. [Verse 2] A skeleton played hostess, With a teacup in each hand; A bat took notes on napkins For the strangest little band. The gravy told a secret, The spoons began to spin, And someone underneath the table Asked if you’d come in. [Chorus] Come in, come in, the door’s unlatched, The floorboards know your name. There’s room beside the talking rug, And seats around the flame. Come in, come in, but mind your hat— The portraits like to stare. Tonight the house has dressed itself And saved you the best chair. [Bridge] When morning lifts the curtain, And the owls return to bed, The house will fold its little hands And tuck away the dead. But leave one candle burning; The hallway hates the dark. And someone will be waiting When the next guest finds the mark. [Final Chorus] Come in, come in, the door’s unlatched, The floorboards know your name. There’s room beside the talking rug, And seats around the flame. Come in, come in, the night is young— The portraits take their share. Tonight the house has dressed itself And saved you the best chair. [Outro] The pumpkin rang the dinner bell. The house replied, “Do stay.”
