Halloween has come so soon
The neighbour's kids they all assume
The bags beneath these eyes of gloom
Are part of some grotesque costume

But the scariest thing of all
Is I was once just like you
One day you're gonna fall
Life is gonna break you, too

So, no, I don't have any treats
No chocolate fudge, no fizzy sweets
Look at my clothes and thinning hair
You think i have a thing to spare?

That stench stinging your nose
Is alcohol, shame, and regret
You, too, shall decompose
And choke to death on student debt

Credit card bills
Gum disease
Microwave meals
Help me, please

One day
We'll be the same
Buried bones
And a half-remembered name
Mock me while you can
Soon you'll be fidget-spinning in your grave, young man

So, happy Halloween, my friend
Enjoy yourself before the end
There's no hope now you're condemned
So, happy Halloween, my friend
