Classroom parties, kitty cats, candy in the pot
Liar’s Dice, haunted house, never in one spot
Funeral day, a little late, priest not so glad
Packed between some mean old ladies, eulogy was sad
Pumpkin carving, forgot the chips, last minute run
Firepit, food a-plenty, against a setting sun
Clean-up time, dips that stick, wine inside a glass
Midnight now, let’s go to bed!, uh-huh not so fast
Kids won’t sleep, tummies hurt, minds all ablaze
Slept on a single bunk in a sugar haze
Sunday now, again it starts, this and that and this
Find the camera, wash the costumes, check stuff off the list
Make spaghetti, get the door, program the Grim Reaper
And even though there was no rest, this weekend was a keeper
