00:47 THE SIMPSONS' HALLOWEEN SPECIAL END CREDITS (Vic Mizzy/Alf Clausen)

------from CD SONGS IN THE KEY OF SPRINGFIELD (1999)

.....Despite being one of the easiest tracks to find, if you were pruning songs to fit them onto one disc and planning to play it for kids besides your own, "Hellraiser" might be one to drop on the basis of suggestiveness. It was sufficiently vague enough for the prudish BBC to let it get to number 2 in the charts. That was fine by me. Anyway, if anybody gets any mileage out of this, let me know in the comments of either post.
