The Mead Composition Notebook

Okay, uh, look, if you want to just keep on doing the same old thing, then maybe this idea is not for you. I, for one, am not going to compromise my artistic integrity. And I'll tell you something else, this is the show and we're not going to change it. Right?

Manheim Screamroller’s Greatest Hits (track 5)

(to the tune of “Let My Love Open the Door” by Pete Townshend)

When people keep debating
Just one holiday for all
When everybody keeps demanding
You pick winter or the fall

Celebrate the screams and the snow
Celebrate the screams and the snow
Celebrate the screams and the snow
The whole year

When good times are celebrated
When magic happens at sundown
Every house is decorated
Parties all over the town

Celebrate the screams and the snow
Celebrate the screams and the snow
Celebrate the screams and the snow
The whole year

Halloween and Christmas, you see
We should love them equally
Witches and elves, and gifts and ghosts
Pumpkins, reindeer, scares and toasts
Celebrate the screams and the snow
Both days are great, you know
Dress yourself up as a vampire
Then go roast chestnuts by the fire
And that’s great

Celebrate the screams and the snow
Celebrate the screams and the snow
Celebrate the screams and the snow
The whole year

Holidays make you feel good
So good it should be a crime
And the best thing about both days is
So much candy all the time

Celebrate the screams and the snow
Celebrate the screams and the snow
Celebrate the screams and the snow
The whole year
