Trick Or Treat

With twisted tales of ghostly screams
We fill our children's heads
We set them on their path for treats
With stories of the walking dead

A night that's filled with witches
Their cackles fill the air
Goblins and ghouls, where ever you look
They're simply everywhere

You'll even see a Princess
With a tiara on her head
Vampires are now a thing of the past
They're Super Heroes, instead

A quest to find the candy
Becomes their driving force
They stuff their mouths with chocolate
Without an ounce of remorse

So, if you see that Goblin
There's really no cause for alarm
Just give them lots of candy
And keep them from any harm
