Trick Or Treat
Seven days before Halloween eve
and I have the treats to give free
for all the little children in costumes of delight
that'll make you smile or get the frights
Go ahead and open the bag
so many treats for all to be had
Chocolate bars and chewy chews
lollipops and gooey goos
Eat a few no big deal
so many treats for a child's thrill
Six days out and what do you see
an empty bowl of candy
Get out the bag you bought it big
you paid for it your not a pig
Halloween still days away
you have the discipline to save
One day out and that bag is thin
there's plenty for what your expecting
Take a few to munch away
you got enough for Halloween day
Halloween eve and your house is dark
the curtains drawn before festivities start
Make no sound quiet as a mouse
you become a no candy house
Trick or Treat shame on me
Trick or Treat I couldn't let it be
Trick or Treat I ate all the candy
Trick or Treat I ate all that candy
