The scariest night of the year
When everyone’s something to fear
And no you’re not dreaming
That really is screaming
The ultimate nightmare is near
Policemen abandon their beats
The fiercest of guard dogs retreats
When you here that drumming
The dark force is coming …
The neighbourhood kids wanting sweets!

For transpondian readers sweets is English for candy and you can substitute the
word treats if Anglicisms offend you
