Midnight

Witching hour, pitch black, the moon is howling.
Windows closed, tight blinds pulled down,
Close the curtains and turn off the lights.
It´s time for the fright.

Lock the doors, turn on the alarm and doze off to bed.
Knock, knock.
Why is someone at the door?
The door creaks as I open it.
Wow! There is no one at the door.
I wonder who was knocking?
I’m just going to go back to bed.

Knock, knock. Creak.
Now who is at the door?
Don’t worry.
I’m tucked in tight.
Oh no, I didn’t close the front door!
