Come hither, Dear Hallows Eve
and covet these sickly sweets
till porcelain heaves
poor uvula cleaved,
by Sir Grim Reaper’s teeth—
till eyes do burst
like pop rocks cursed
upon the ghost’s white sheets.
Come hither, Dear Hallows Eve.
Come forth, This Villain’s Night,
fair ghouls, you need not hide
and spectres: don’t be shy!
deliver your joyous frights
the witches do abide—
unearth your tombs;
prepare the brooms
and sweep across the sky
on this Villain’s Night.
Come now, Halloween!
hear October’s screams;
the heart’s curdled beat
against my haunted dreams
from which the darkness seeps.
You call me sick
you cry out “trick”
but still I stick to treat—
Yes!
Come now, Halloween!

Come hither, Dear Hallows Eve
and covet these sickly sweets
till porcelain heaves
poor uvula cleaved,

till eyes do burst
like pop rocks cursed
upon the ghost’s white sheets.
Come hither, Dear Hallows Eve.
Come forth, This Villain’s Night,
fair ghouls, you need not hide
and spectres: don’t be shy!
deliver your joyous frights
the witches do abide—
unearth your tombs;
prepare the brooms
and sweep across the sky
on this Villain’s Night.
Come now, Halloween!
hear October’s screams;
the heart’s curdled beat
against my haunted dreams
from which the darkness seeps.
You call me sick
you cry out “trick”
but still I stick to treat—
Yes!
Come now, Halloween!
