Trick Or (You Know)

I'm off to find me something sweet
A yummy,  juicy Halloween treat
I've learned to follow my nose
No matter where it goes
My feet might smell, but smell with my feet?

I'll trick or treat and finish my task
While wearing a scary Halloween mask
The scariest of them all
No! not my mother-in-law
I'll tell you now before you can ask

If candy were money I would be rich
I'll satisfy my Halloween itch
And that thing I said before?
I can't stand it anymore
My mother-in-law, is truly a witch
