And to All a Good Fright

And to All a Good Fright is a song released on 21 December 2021 by The Stupendium.

Description
t's that time of year again! The time when I celebrate Christmas with the terrors from my Steam library and beyond. Except this time, I've decided I want a simple, non-scary Christmas.

...Looks like they have other ideas...

This is my fourth year making a scary Christmas song. In all honestly, the first entry way back in 2018 was made as a bit of a joke project. I would never have dreamed that it'd be received so well or lead to an entire series. I want to thank every one of you who has tuned in each year since this started to see what happens next.

These are always fun to make, even if it is always a mad rush to get them finished in time. But next year I really want to try some other festive ideas I've been having. So you can consider this a finale to the 'Scary Christmas Saga'. I may return to it someday, further down the line there will be doubtless lots more new characters to wrote about, but for now this is the last one I'll be making. I hope you all enjoy it!

A huge thank you to my patrons for making this project possible, to Bonecage for his work composing the music and to Lizzy, Paul and Sheax for their help working on the video. I couldn't have done it without you! I've got lots of BIG projects planned for next year and I can't wait to get to work on them. Happy holidays everyone, see you in 2022!

Lyrics
VERSE 1

Three years ago, I wrote a song

Where a bunch of scary monsters left their games and got along

To celebrate their Christmas day with me

Well, what do you know?

We're three years on

And since September, well

The comment sections begged me to go on

To create a song to inflate the trilogy

Well, I thought last year I was abundantly clear

When I said in the song that I was out of ideas

I'm done with the fearfully festive, no, never again

Now, you may say that I'm pretty despicable

But I made the first one just to be clickable

Now I'm sick of all the Christmas repetition

And I'm buckin' the trend

Well, there'll be no more hallowing, caroling

There'll be no villains a-trimming the tree

And I'm flat out of animatronics

That I wanna see when I'm having turkey

I just want the jingle of bells

Without all the hideous villains as well

This season, I'm seizin' the freedom to do somethin' else

And while Boris and Bendy are probably trendy,

I'm not gonna send them a gift

I'm Saint Nixin' the cryptids and kickin'

The miserable children right off of the list

I just want a Christmas for once

Without all the monsters taggin' along

If you wanted horror, I'm sorry, you've got the wrong song

Hang on. No, no, hang on, that's a minor chord!

No, no, we're not doing it!

This is a normal, Happy Christmas song, I'm not doing it!

Please! Oh, God.

We hear sounds of celebration, we hear jingling of the bells

You forgot our invitations, we guess we'll invite ourselves

You see, we've grown quite accustomed to your horror holidays

So buddy, now you're stuck with us, you'll never get away

We spent the year locked up in here, expected to be scary

We never heard of Christmas cheer, we'd no cause to be merry

We never got a holiday, until you came along!

And we don't get a Christmas, unless you write a song

No, we won't get a Christmas, unless you write a song

I've jacked in this fad, you can pack up your screams

I'm done with this madness, get back in that screen!

For one day a year, we all get to be free

We won't let you mess with our festivities!

Freddy and Chica are dressing the tree

But that garland might just be the neck of the Teacher

Montgomery Gator keeps warm by the hearth

With Huggy Wuggy 'round his neck as a scarf

Whilst we're sure the turkey's the bird you'd prefer

The chef monkey's serving a more murderous bird

Lady Dimitrescu pours the festive mulled wine

Well, it's warm and it's red, but tastes slightly of iron!

We never got a holiday, until you came along

And we don't get a Christmas, unless you write a song!

Oh, why won't you listen? I told you I'm done!

All this repetition is simply not fun!

I won't make another

That's final, I'm out!

Oh, don't kid yourself, Greg, you're writing it now!

Crewmates bring gifts and cheer

Just like they did last year!

Whilst Mono inspects all the gifts 'round the tree

956 is handing out ominous candy

Well, I guess that's a nice change from 173

Oh no, he's here too

Old Leshy kills squirrels outside in the yard

And uses his camera to make Christmas cards

Choo-Choo Charles is the most festive engine on rails

Whilst Spamton's just hyped for the January sales

Don't you think this all is getting a bit too meta?

Meta? I hardly know her. Wait a minute, that kinda works

Sans! Not at Christmas.

Swear I'm not ungrateful to all of my fans

But there's only so many of these I can stand

I love that you love them, I honestly do

But next year, I'd quite like to do something new.

You can't help but buckle to audience pressure

So we'll get our Christmas forever and ever!

We may all be terrors, but you can't escape it

The scariest monster's the one you created!

Perhaps you'd find these easier if they weren't six minutes long

But we don't get a Christmas, unless you write a song

No, we don't get a Christmas, we don't get a Christmas

If you don't write a song!
