Sandman's Evil On Halloween
A pumpkin at Halloween shows respect
Known protection from the evil suspect
One that travels in the deep of the night
Pumpkin’s light keeps this soul away tonight
The Sandman comes many days of the year
But never with the vengeance one would fear
That Halloween brings for the evil craft
Where sleep carries dreams and nightmare’s dark shaft
In your room, if you don’t have pumpkin cries
The Sandman leaves his mark into your eyes
Leaving evil nightmares inside your head
Crawling with hatred wishing you were dead
That’s why I always hold my lit pumpkin
Protect me from evil that does begin
On this cursed night, terror of Halloween
The greatest night that has ever been seen
