Mask
In daytime I wear a Lone Rangers mask
At dusk it is my Zorro mask and scarf
In between I walk around with raccoon families
On a leash to avoid confusion and the virus too
A red bandanna and a cowboy hat are suggested
When going to the bank or off to rob a train
I lost my job for some strange reason
We must remember to bring six shooters
One for each hand if we are so inclined
A new career in crime is needed right away
Because Halloween is only for one day
Children need more than candy to get by
When work is hard to find in these pandemic times
