Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse] We sprout from the ground in the heat of July We grow and we glow as the clouds roll by But beware My young seeds Of the October skies For that's when they carve us and bake us in pies [Chorus] Oh Halloween’s near The harvest is here The scariest night of the year Will you light up the dark or end up a tart Pumpkin fate isn’t always so clear [Verse 2] An elder once told me As vines intertwined “Beware of the hands that are calloused and kind” They’ll gut you and scoop you Your seeds they’ll divide Then bake your sweet flesh with some nutmeg inside [Prechorus] Some pumpkins get candles Some pumpkins get crust So shine while you can Before you’re just dust [Chorus] Oh Halloween’s near The harvest is here The scariest night of the year Will you light up the dark or end up a tart Pumpkin fate isn’t always so clear [Bridge] They’ll tell you it’s honor to glow on the stoop But it’s cold and it’s windy And you’ll start to droop And when the clock strikes twelve Your glory is gone You’ll rot in the garden till winter moves on
