72 Miles From The Sea

I met a girl on Halloween,

Wearing blood suckers attire

But alas she wasn’t costumed

She was actually a vampire

Thank goodness for Halloween,

I can say that without hesitation

Because the cobwebs have suddenly

Become Halloween decorations

My future wife was dressed like a tart

When we first met on Elm Street

And she said very provocatively

“I'll be your trick if you'll be my treat”

Halloween is one of the very few

Acceptable times to wear body glitter

When you have a reasonable expectation

Of not being mistaken for a stripper

Halloween is all about Candy

Which can be very droll

Unless she has daddy issues

And swings from a pole

Why couldn't the witch have children?

It wasn’t just because she was a meanie

The answer is far more fundamental

Because her husband had a hallow weenie

For my friends and I, Halloween is a contest

And I go all out to beat them all

This year I dressed my dog up as a cat

But now he won’t come when I call
