Dad, bring us some masks!
Something scary or bright,
A clown for a laugh,
A witch for a fright!
Mom, dress us up nicely!
A princess needs lace,
A pirate eye patches,
A zombie rot-face!
I’ll want that big bucket
In the shape of a skull
But a pillowcase also
For when that gets full!
The trees all have cobwebs!
There are graves by the street!
A wolf-man is howling
Like he wants ME to eat!
Hold my hand. Don’t let go
Except at the door,
Hold the other bag there
So we can get more!
We’ll walk like a bat flies,
Up and down, forth and back!
When we’ve hit every house,
You can carry me back…
