Halloween Tonight


  ...."Gasp!..... what's that?"

I have creepies in my cupboards
And crawlies under my bed
I hear ghastly, ghostly noises
That fills my heart with dread

.......... ..... oooOOOOOOooo...BOO!

My cat has lost his whiskers
My dog's hair all turned white
A skeleton just jumped on me
And gave me such a fright

....... .......hee hee hee

Creatures come a calling
Monsters knock on my door
Slippery, slithering, slimy things
Are sliding across my floor

  .... shlurp .... splosh .... slither

Witches cackle with laughter
Holding Jack O' lantern lights
Why have all these things come out?
It's Halloween tonight!
