Oh yeah, the disclaimer: I own nothing, not making any money, end of story.
All Hollow's Eve
'Twas the night before all Hollow's day,
Yes, All Hollow's eve
Not a goblin was stirring
not even to sneeze.
The Goblin King exclaimed,
"The castle is too quiet!"
He knew that meant trouble.
Were they planning to riot?
He searched high and low
For his mischievous subjects
But all he could find
Were his goblins favorite objects.
Their toys are all over the place.
The goblins are gone!
But where could they be?
They left the TV on!
He then heard a faint noise
That sounded like whispers.
He silently followed the voices
And found his lost tricksters.
"You have all your pillowcases?"
One little goblin asked.
The other ones nodded
And put on their masks.
Then the little goblin said to the others
"Don't make any ruckus,
We better leave quietly
Before His Majesty finds us"
The Goblin King stepped in front of them
"And where are you going?"
A few gasps where heard, followed by
"It was all his doing!"
"We are sorry your majesty,
but please understand
this is the only night of the year
we can play as ourselves aboveground!"
"The kids go out in costumes
Go knocking door to door
They yell 'trick or treat!'
And get goodies galore!"
Jareth looked at his goblins
He saw the hope in their faces
His heart lurched, felt a pang
And then did something amazing.
The king smiled at his goblins
"I just have one condition.
You will not go aboveground
Without adult supervision.'
The little goblins cheered
The king laughed in delight
And with a poof of glitter
They disappeared in the night.
Jareth had the last words
Before their happy retreat
"Have a great Halloween
And Happy Trick or Treat!"
