Halloween yah

Halloween yah

A Poem by terry smith
"

Sung to the tune "HALLALUJAH"

"
In the land of all hallows eve
the children dress in make believe
this is the story
let me tell it to you

It goes like this
it's not a myth
the grown-ups all give out
candy as gifts
and all the children cry out
halloween yeah
trick or treat yeah
smell my feet yeah
trick or treat yeah
now give us some candy


her scars were long
but she needed proof
that she was dead
so from the roof
she hung herself
in the moonlight
to amuse you
you untied her
but were unaware
was all a trick
for you to be scared
and from her lips you heard the
BOO yeah

halloween yeah
trick or treat yeah
smell my feet yeah
now give us some candy

I know that we were here before
there's only stale candy behind that door
and apples for me and you
now let's all go on a desperate march
to fill our bags with candy and such
and stuff our bellies
till they burst in two yeah

halloween yeah
trick or treat yeah
don't be mean yeah
share your candy

This is beyond cool! I am really amazed by what you've done here, Terry. It's funny, but SO much more than that!

High five, my clever friend!

Thanks Kelly :D
An interesting and humorous take on the song. Mr. Buckley's smiling from heaven I'll bet. :)

Thanks :) I wanted to greet halloween with a song:)
I worship all that is Jeff Buckley so i love this song, so it was interesting to add new words to it. But they fit and i loved the meaning and symbolism behind them. Awesome job

This was a lot of fun to read. I think it would make a good song, it's very lyrical. (oops, I just read your tag....got it!)
