Let Them Eat Candy

The toothaches do not last
But, the memories, they do,
Once Halloween had passed
And my childhood, too ...

But, the memories, they do
Remain with me still ...
And my childhood, too
I am sure always will

Remain with me still ...
The magic and the fun,
I am sure always will 
When all is said and done 

The magic and the fun
Can so easily get away,
When all is said and done 
Let them eat candy this day

Can so easily get away ...
Once Halloween had passed, 
Let them eat candy this day 
The toothaches do not last.
