A Special Person To Ride By Marc O'Brien

Stream

A scream

Featuring a fiend

Who is very mean

Cable channel horror marathons are shown

Don’t answer your phone

Sorority sisters on the run

Due to having too much bloody fun

Faces we do hide

Gothic figures are the guide

On Halloween October thirty first

Everything hurts

Exploding body bursts

Too much candy eaten

Before the dinner feeding

Act considered bad

Judged by Mom and Dad

Who survived the slasher attack

Heat they did pack

Casted as a player featured

Defeated the hideous creature

Branded names made them stars

Drinking at the dead carpet bar

But when the calendar turns

Saintly souls stand firm

Emerged from a symbolic placed urn

Very concerned

Since the day is now theirs

Filled with spiritual religious affairs

Eliminating any scares

Confirm better place over there

Where most the cast

Deceased and relaxed

Counting blessings

Looking good, subject addressing

Occupying cloud nine

Enjoying a glass of wine

Finding another audition line
