What a couple of days
It never rains it pours
The Halloween kids living the dream
For tricks and treats in scores
The clouds they opened up
All across the land
The masks and capes soon in a state
On this day rain should be banned
There’s a knock at our door
There stood this little fella
Trick or Treat soaked head to feet
The treat was our umbrella
His night was getting better
Munching sweets in the lane
With the clouds showing no mercy
He was now singing in the rain
Never mind you trick or treaters
The rain it showed no fear
Put your masks away from today
Until this time next year
