Candy on Halloween
Get it while it's hot 🍬🎃
Candy on
Halloween
And the night is young
And the treats are sweet
And the moon is fun
Candy on
Halloween
And the night is old
And the gums all rotting
And the moon all full of mold
Candy on Halloween
The sweetness doesn’t last
And your present howls higher
And your past is raging fast
Candy on Halloween
A knock at the door
A rapping at the gate
And do you dare to open?
And gaze upon your fate?
Candy on Halloween
Munch munch munch
It’s all a bunch of sugar
A lunch you never bargained for
A dessert that never comes
A waiting by the window
A gnashing of the gums
A whistling in the dark
A turn to look behind
A never saw it coming
A lost without the find
Candy on Halloween
Kisses, peace, bye-bye
The bucket’s nearly empty now
Big sigh
Lights out
Even in your sleep
You still hear the voices shout
Candy on Halloween



humbug! Here is what Grumpy Carl has to add......“Well isn’t that just delightful. A sugar-coated descent into existential dread. Perfect. I always said candy rots your teeth and your soul. Happy Halloween, now turn the lights off and let the ghosts handle the cleanup.” At least he's right about the cleanup.
