Haven't Got Halloween Out of My System Yet
We gather here friends today
To pay tribute to this witch
Which I had to badly, sadly, to slay
Because her aliment got switched

She was a landlord to me first
And a great friend to me second
But as a friend she wasn't the worst
Yet if I had to really reckon

You jerks cause her to change
With your warlock magic
That made her or me deranged
Your deaths are not going to be tragic

Stomp, stomp, stomp
You monsters knew
Whomp, whomp, whomp
You'll get what's coming to you

I'll eat your bloody spleen
While you still alive in pain
Because I'm just that mean
And not because I'm insane

Though insane I am
But on this orb your dirty deed is recorded
BLAM, BLAM, BLAM
Yet now here you are awarded

Oh what a mess now
Oh great she wasn't dead
Oh boy she's going to have a cow
Oh god she going to have me beheaded

I really, really, really messed up
Then again they did have it coming
Though it's hard to tell when you are this boozed-up
Maybe to the witch I should be forthcoming?

Nah, instead I'll make them into spooky, scary skeletons
I'll just clean the goop off the frame
Make sure to glue them all with gelatin
Only then will bare bones remains

Oh no, the witch awakens
All the carnage now she sees it
She's going to have my bacon
Time to cheese it!

I have no idea what "aliment got switched" means, so I'm already off on the wrong foot as to why the narrator has had to kill this woman, but that prompts him to go on a killing spree, then oh crap, she's actually not dead, so he just repurposes it all as Halloween decorations? That's the gist of it I'm getting. There's an approximate rhythm, and a number of the rhymes are stretches, working better when spoken than read. Pretty amusing.
