Awful and Very Daring
Awful and Very Daring
Was as dark as it possibly could get
While the pavement was all wet
Halloween costume someone was wearing
Looked pretty awful and very daring.
With none other could it be compared
Saw self in mirror and was scared
In background there was a howling sound
Was enough to make your heart pound.
All of us stood there in total awe
Heard sound coming from a scratching claw
Felt shivers going up and down my spine.
There was no doubt that they were mine.
We even had heard an old owl hoot
Then after he saw me in my suit
Full of fear I once found myself in
Next year would like to do it again.
