Nightmare Night is here again! anthem 2022

Citizens of Ponyville! We have graced your tiny village with our presence, so that you might behold the real princess of the night! A creature of nightmare is no longer, but instead a pony who desires your love and admiration! Together we shall change this dreadful celebration into a bright and glorious feast!

Every year, we put on a disguise to save ourselves from her searching eyes. But Nightmare Moon wants just one thing: to gobble up ponies in one quick swing! Hungrily, she soars the sky. If she sees nopony, she passes by. So if she comes and all is clear, Equestria is safe another year! Fill up her belly with a treat or two, so she won't return to come eat you!
— Zecora

This oldscool CBM64 SID track is just perfect for Nightmare Night, spooky and groovy. In commodore days, this was one of the coolest EVER sounds from a homecomputer game (se below). It was made for many common computers at that time, C64 kicked ass compared to others sound. I think the melody line depics her searching eyes, the flapping wings, the fear in the dark. The pace of the whole song is so much Nightmare Moon, a black mare of pure darkness.
Let's remake it into an Nightmare Night Anthem for 2022.

I have a quest here, let's write lyrics for this anthem.
If some pony wants to colab and help with singing and/or writing then YAAY, tell me and we do it, let's make it better for Nightmare Night 2023!

Sequenced, lead keyboard (SID-station), mixed/mastered by Dandelion @ZebraZarmEast, far out in the Wastelands.
