Bad Halloween for the Creature



The Creature from the Black Lagoon

Went out on Halloween

He had too much to drink, and soon

Was feeling pretty mean


He started, then, to growl and roar

And staggered from the bar

He broke the windows of a store

And vandalized a car


He left his slime on everything

And ran through people's yards

He smashed their jack-o'-lanterns

That they'd worked so hard to carve


He went around and scared some folks

Who were just trick-or-treat-ing

But to their rescue came some blokes

Who gave that fish a beating!


The Creature fled back to his lair

Beneath the waters deep

The people said, "You stay in there

And don't come back, you creep!"


The moral of this tale of mine

Is very plainly seen:

If you simply cannot hold your wine,

Stay home on Halloween!
