Pumpkin, Pumpkin
Pumpkin, pumpkin, I’ve been thinking,
You’re the finest one I’ve seen,
Soon you’ll be a jack-o-lantern
All lit up for Halloween.
Witch, Witch
Witch witch, where do you fly?
Under the clouds and over the sky.
Witch, witch, what do you eat?
Little black apples from Hurricane Street.
Witch, witch, what do you drink?
Vinegar and good red ink.
Witch, witch, where do you sleep?
Up in the clouds where the pillows are cheap.
Trick or Treat
Trick or Treat!
Give me Something Best to Eat,
Give me Candy, Give me Cake,
Give me Something Sweet to Take…!!!
On Halloween
The witches fly Across the sky,
The Owls go, Who, Who, Who,
The Black Cats Yowl, And Green Ghosts Howl,
“Scary Halloween to You…!!!”
“Happy Halloween…!!!”
Perfect Pumpkins
Perfect Pumpkins Big and Round
They Lay Upon the Muddy Ground
With Leaves and Vines all Intertwined
That’s the one that should be mine…!!!
“Happy Halloween…!!!”
Owl
An owl sat watching in a tree,
Just as wise as he could be,
Watching tricksters from door to door run,
Trick or treating and having fun.
After he had watched the whole scene,
He said, “Whoo, it’s Owl-o-ween!”
Skeleton Parade
The skeletons are out tonight,
They march about the street,
With bony bodies, bony heads,
And bony hands and feet.
Bony bony bony bones
with nothing in between,
Up and down and all around
They march on Hallowe’en.
What Witches Do
The witches don their pointed hats,
The witches croak and croon,
The witches ride their broomsticks,
Away beyond the moon.
The witches don their flowing cloaks,
The witches stir their brew.
The witches chant their magic spells,
All the dark hours through.
The witches stroke their big black cats,
They comb their locks of gray,
Yet when the first faint daylight comes.
The witches hide away.
Skin and Bones
There was an old woman all skin and bones,
Oo-oo-oo-oo.
She lived down by the old graveyard,
Oo-oo-oo-oo.
One night she thought she’d take a walk,
Oo-oo-oo-oo.
She walked down by the old graveyard,
Oo-oo-oo-oo.
She say the bones a-lying around,
Oo-oo-oo-oo.
She went to the closet to get a broom,
Oo-oo-oo-oo.
She opened the door and ——-
BOO!!!
Trick or Treat
Witches, ghosts, and goblins.
Stealing down the street,
Knock on every door way,
Trick or treat!
When your door is opened,
This is what you meet,
Scary creatures shouting,
Trick or treat!
Hallowe’en Parade
Five white ghosts and seven goblins,
Go parading down the street,
Boys and girls with funny faces,
Asking for a treat.
If a goblin rings my doorbell,
I will say “I’m not afraid!”
I will light my jack-o’lantern,
For the Hallowe’en parade.
I will give these scary people,
Apples, candy, cakes to eat;
Then I’ll wave goodbye and watch them
As they march off down the street.
Five Little Pumpkins
Five little pumpkins
Sitting on a gate.
The first one said,
“Oh, my it’s getting late!”
The second one said,
“There are witches in the air!”
The third one said,
“Well, I don’t care!”
The fourth one said,
“Let’s run and run and run!”
The fifth one said,
“I’m ready for some fun!”
Ooooo went the wind
And out went the lights
And the five little pumpkins
Rolled out of sight.
Halloween Pumpkin
Carve your pumpkin with a face really mean.
Set it outside in a place it’ll be seen,
For it scares away ghosts, goblins, and more.
You might want to put it right next to your door!
Most important of all on this Halloween night,
Have lots of fun and turn on the light!
Pumpkin
We bought a fat orange pumpkin
The plumpest sort they sell.
We neatly scooped the inside out
And only left the shell.
We carved a funny funny-face
Of silly shape and size,
A pointy nose, a jagged mouth
And two enormous eyes.
We set it in a window
And we put a candle in,
Then lit it up for all to see
Our jack-o’lantern grin.
Countdown
One full moon.
Two wicked witches.
Three boney skeletons.
Four hooting owls.
Five meowing cats.
Six glowing jack-0-lanterns.
Seven spooky ghosts.
Eight creepy spiders.
Nine green goblins.
Ten black bats.
The Night of Halloween
The house looks empty,
There’s no one around,
There isn’t a sight,
There isn’t a sound.
In the darkness each ear,
I feel the same shame,
having eaten the treats…
Before the kids came!
A Little Witch
A little witch in a pointed cap
On my door went rap, rap, rap.
When I went to open it,
She was not there.
She was riding on her broomstick
High up in the air!
