Young Voices You May Hear
There are witches in black riding on their brooms.
Vampires come out of their coffins at sunset.
The mummies arise from death’s sleep in their tombs.
Body snatchers search for victims they may get.
There is no need to be afraid of these things.
They come out for some once-a-year happenings.
Up at your door, young voices yell “Trick or Treat”.
Be ready with some candy for them to eat.
