Halloween Fun
HALLOWEEN FUN
Carving the pumpkin, oh such fun
How they danced when dad was done
Twisted mouth with large, black eyes
To scare the kids, then pumpkin pies
Hear those darlings on the street
Tiny fingers, tiny feet
Soon they’ll ring the bell and shout
“Trick or treat. Hand outs!”
But see old moon, he’s hanging high
A big gold searchlight in the sky
Just peeping o’er, the sun has set
With rosy, glorious hue, and yet,
A solar quake now rumbles forth
Spewing flame toward the earth
Those fiery rays have stirred the dead
The night is bright, the moon is red
Check the time – it’s nine o five
Jack O Lanterns come alive
Oh, how they cry, each frightened child
Belegged pumpkins running wild
I’ll tell you how kids went to bed
Twas in the ground without a head
Those empty gourds were hearty fed
The night was cursed, the moon was red
Moo haha! haha! haha! hah OH
Haha! haha! haha! HAH!
