Call Me Cousin

I'm short and most costumes don't fit
Halloween found me in a snit
     But I have my answer now
     I just comb my long hair down
Add glasses and I'm Cousin It



Written for the Halloween Costume contest

Cousin It was one of my favorite characters from the Adams Family, Diane, and combing long hair over your face and adding glasses would make anyone look like him. Great costume idea! Best wishes for success in the contest. Love, Carolyn
