Ransom Or Forfeit - Everything Halloween
Its pitch black in the meadow
Shadows everywhere.
With a heavily beating heart
I start to walk through.
When out jumped a " I dont know"
Was too fast for me to see,
Have goosebumps up my arms
Need to find somewhere to wee.
When i felt a hand on my neck
I screamed and you can guess,
No longer need to find a place
have already wet myself.
Flickering lights and ghoulish faces
Are heading straight for me
Lights of orange and black
Are steadily blinding me.
They start to dance around me
Wrapping me in duct tape
Marched me shouting to my home
Thinking a ransom they will take
Only my old dog at home
Saw the figures and then saw me
She jumped at them snarling
Causing their masks to break away
Was then that I could see
Was my neighbours children
Oh what a forfeit this will be
For the next three months
A valeted car will pleasure me
