Trick Or Treat Quotes

• In masks and gown we haunt the street
  And knock on doors for trick or treat
  Tonight we are the king and queen,
  For oh tonight it's Halloween!

• It's Halloween! It's Halloween!
  The moon is full and bright
  And we shall see what can't be seen
  On any other night.
  Skeletons and ghosts and ghouls,
  Grinning goblins fighting duels
  Werewolves rising from their tombs,
  Witches on their magic brooms
  In masks and gown we haunt the street
  And knock on doors for trick or treat
  Tonight we are the king and queen,
  For oh tonight it's Halloween!

• Little brats yellin 'Trick or Treat' all through my screen door,
  When y'all should be at home sleep,
  Instead of at my front porch 15 deep.
  The jack o' lantern came in handy...
  I can turn my porch light out like I ain't got no candy.
  But ain't that somethin?
  You buy a Halloween costume and a pumpkin,
  Almost gave your children a heart attack.
  It's a tradition, but who the hell started that?
