I Can't Wait Till Halloween (with apologies to Milan Hartz, Don Ricardo, Lois Jean Ridgely, and Mel Blanc, and anyone else associated with "I Tan't Wait Till Quithmuth Day")

 

I Can’t Wait Till Halloween

I'm gonna do my droppin’
From somewhere quite unseen.
I’m gonna scare my parents
When it is Halloween!

I got a great big candy sack
To fill up to the top
I know there’s lots of candy
And one time, soda pop!

Oh! Witches spells, ghosts in trees
Soon will be here
I can’t wait till Halloween
I’m glad it’s very near!

Oh! Witches spells, ghosts in trees
Soon will be here
I can’t wait till Halloween
The Best Night of the Year!

I’m gonna scare my sister:
Remove her dolly’s head.
I’m gonna scare my brother:
A bony hand in bed.

I’m gonna scare my mommy:
A mouse in her new coat.
I’m gonna scare my daddy:
A mummy run remote.

Oh! Witches spells, ghosts in trees
Soon will be here
I can’t wait till Halloween
The Best Night of the Year!

I can’t forget the pranking
For Tommy down the street.
I’ll tell him I dismembered
Aunt Lil and Uncle Pete!

I’ll say I brought a present:
A box that’s stained all red.
He’s gonna be so happy
To find it’s not a head.

I’m gonna be a mummy... 
Or maybe something green.
I’ll be a good whatever thing
For this year’s Halloween

Cuz scaring’s fun for parents
And every kid I meet.
And I know I’ll get scared myself
When I go trick or treat!

Now I’ll think up my costume,
Pick out what I will be,
And then I’ll tell my parents
They must make it for me!

Then I’ll be very happy.
I know I'll look so keen,
Cuz there’s no other night compares
With good Old Halloween!

Oh! Witches spells, ghosts in trees
Soon will be here
I can’t wait till Halloween
I’m glad it’s very near!

Oh! Witches spells, ghosts in trees
Soon will be here
I can’t wait till Halloween
The Best Night of the Year!
