Michael Jackson – Ghosts

Why don’t we just leave him alone, he hasn’t hurt anybody. Can we just go. Its your fault Jeremy you just couldn’t keep your mouth shut.
He did the right thing.
He is a weirdo, there is no place in this town for weirdos.
( gate opens )
that that that aight a good sign!
Just like last time it’s the ghosts.
Shut up!
Don’t hit your brother.
There is no such thing as ghosts, honey.
Gonna prove it to you kid!
Lets go!
Did anyone call and make sure this is a good time maybe we should come back later.
Ya maybe when its light out – like daytime!
Oh damn!
( rain sounds )
Oh
Who is there?
What was that?
( everyone screams and steps back )
Michael: Did I scare you?
Everyone: Ah ha.
That’s him, mom that’s the guy.
Hi.
Sorry!
You didn’t scare me, maybe you did scare them?
That’s too bad isn’t it?
I guess I have to try harder next time!
There wont be a next time
Michael : Oh really?
Man: Oh really!
Michael: No next time ah?
Why is that?
Man: We want you out of town! We have a nice normal town! Normal people! Normal kids! We don’t need freaks like you tellin em ghost stories!
Michael: So you don’t believe in ghosts?
Kid: I do!
Woman: Me too!
Woman: Oh shut up, you see what you have done, aren’t you ashamed young people are impressionable
Kid: Show them the neat stuff you did for us.
Second Kid: Shut up that’s supposed to be a secret.
Mom: Don’t hit your brother.
Man: You’re weird, you’re strange and I don’t like you. You’re scarring these kids living up here all alone.
Michael: I’m not alone, your right I do like scarring people i do, but it’s just for fun. Don’t you kids enjoy when I do my little, you know?
All the kids: Nod ( Yes )
Man: Well the fun is over! Back to the circus you freak! And do us a favor, okay dont force us to get rough with you because we will if we have to.
Women in the background: No, I’m not going to fight for nobody.
Michael: Your trying to scare me aren’t you? I’ll tell you what, lets play a game, anybody here like games, hello?! GAME TIME!!
Kid says: Yes
Michael: The first person to get scared has to leave! How about that?
Women in the background: I’ll go please!
Man: I don’t play games with freaks!
Michael: There is no need to be rude.
Woman: Yes I agree, there is no need to be rude, you have a very lovely home and Im afraid we over stayed our welcome so we’re gonna go, okay, can we go, okay?
Michael: ( snaps his finger and thunders sounds )
Man: Are you gonna leave or am I gonna have to hurt you?
Everyone: I couldn’t hurt a fly, I couldn’t hurt nobody, I can’t hurt him!
Michael: You are trying to scare me, I guess I have no choice! I guess I have to scare you! Watch this! Tell me do you think this is scary? ( michael makes funny faces )
Everyone: That’s it, come on!
Man: That’s ridiculous! That’s not funny.
Michael: Fine, what about this one? ( michael make funny faces again )
Everyone: That’s not funny!
Man: That’s not funny did you hear what I said? Freak boy? Its time for you to go!
Michael: Is this scarry? ( Michael stretches his face )
Everyone: Screams Woah!
( everyone runs for the door and the door slams )
Michael: Are we going somewhere? Hello? It’s too late you’re my guests and by the way did I tell you I wasn’t alone? Meet the family!

Bell rings
Scream / holler
Snapping Holler
Wind sounds
Coughs
Wind Lightening

Told me that you’re doin’ wrong.
One las’ shock an’ all alone.
Cryin’ wolf ain’t like a man.
Throwin’ rocks to hide your hands.

You ain’t done enough for me.
You ain’t done ‘nough for me.
You are disgustin’ me,
Yeah, yeah.
You ain’t been just to me.
You are disgustin’ me.
Just want your cut from me.
But too bad, too bad.

Look who just walked in the place.
Dead and stuffy in the face. Woo!
Look who’s standin’ if you please.
Though, tried to bring me to my knees.

Too bad, too bad about it.
Why don’t you scream and shout it?
Too bad, too bad about it.
Why don’t you just scream and shout it?
Too bad, too bad about it.
Why don’t you scream and shout it?
Too bad, too bad about it.
Why don’t you just scream and shout it?

( gun shot sounds )

Hell all up in Hollywood.
Sayin’ that you got it good.
Creepin’ from a dusty hole.
Tales of what somebody told.

Too bad, too bad about it.
Why don’t you scream and shout it?
Too bad, too bad about it.
Why don’t you just scream and shout it?
Too bad, too bad about it.
Why don’t you scream and shout it?
Too bad, too bad about it.

*Grunts from the ghosts
Dog sounds and banging the wall sounds

Time Code: 22:26 ( ghosts drop to the floor and dancing starts )

Time Code: 24:03 ( silence )

Michael: Are you scared yet? Hahahahah

( the man swallows Michael Jackson )

Man: ( gestures safe )
( the man starts dancing )

There’s a ghost down in the hall
There’s a ghoul upon the bed
There’s something in the walls
There’s blood up on the stairs
And it’s floating through the room
And there’s nothing I can see
And I know that that’s the truth
Because now it’s onto me

I don’t understand it
Hey
I don’t understand it!
Aaow

There’s a tappin’ in the floor
There’s a creak behind the door
There’s a rocking in the chair
But there’s no-one sitting there
There’s a ghostly smell around
But nobody to be found
And a coughin’ and a yawnin’
Where a restless soul is going

Don’t understand it
Hey!
Don’t understand it
Hey.

And who gave you the right to shake my family?
And who gave you the right to shake my baby, she needs me
And who gave you the right to shake my family tree?
You put a knife in my back
Shot an arrow in me!
Tell me are you the ghost of jealousy
The ghost of jealousy

There’s a tappin in the floor
There’s a creak behind the door
There’s a rocking in the chair
But nobody’s sitting there
There’s a ghostly smell around
But nobody to be found
And a coughin’ and a yawnin’
Where a restless soul is going

Don’t understand it!
Yeah Yeah!
Don’t understand it!
Your just a dog gone!
Aaow!

And who gave you the right to scare my family?
And who gave you the right to scare my baby, she needs me
And who gave you the right to shake my family tree?
And who gave you the right to take intrusion, to see me?
And who gave you the right to shake my family?
And who gave you the right to hurt my baby, she needs me
And who gave you the right to shake my family tree?
You put a knife in my back,
Shot an arrow in me!
Tell me are you the ghost of jealousy
A suckin’ ghost of jealousy
Aaow!

And who gave you the right to shake my family?
And who gave you the right to shake my baby, she needs me
And who gave you the right to shake my family tree?
And who gave you the right to take, intrusion to see me?
And who gave you the right to hurt my family?
And who gave you the right hurt my baby, she needs me
And who gave you the right to shake my family tree?
You put a knife in my back
Shot an arrow in me!
Tell me are you the ghost of jealousy
The ghost of jealousy

Dog gone
But there’s no doubt about it, piece of mind
Tell me are you the ghost of jealousy
