“No Fuss Halloween”
I like Halloweens with no fuss,
Where my set of traditions are done every year.
The candy plan is the only item to discuss,
Since decorations and set up is crystal clear.
My set of traditions are done every year,
And include funny Halloween movies of which I am a fan.
Since decorations and set up is crystal clear,
There’s no questioning the plan.
Among the included funny Halloween movies of which I am a fan,
Is watching Hocus Pocus around or on Halloween.
There’s no questioning the plan,
And my costume is usually the same routine.
Watching Hocus Pocus around or on Halloween,
Is a comforting classic witchy movie to laugh at.
My costume is usually the same routine.
A low-key witch costume with a tiny orange witch hat.
Another comforting classic witchy movie to laugh at,
That I enjoy is the Halloweentown series.
My low-key witch costume with a tiny orange witch hat,
Always gets compliments and never queries.
Enjoying the Halloweentown series,
Never fails to get me in the Halloween spirit mood.
I always get compliments and never queries,
When trick-or-treaters come to my house in multitude.
Never failing to get me in the Halloween spirit mood,
Is my lovely community Halloween tradition.
Trick-or-treaters come to my house in multitude,
Since we give out candy with ambition.
My lovely community Halloween tradition,
Is to set up in the driveway if you want to hand out candy.
Since we give out candy with ambition,
Our street being popular comes in handy.
Setting up in the driveway if you want to hand out candy,
Makes the candy plan the only item to discuss.
Our street being popular comes in handy,
Allows me to like Halloweens with no fuss.
