+Listen to A Cat Named Halloween
(stop midi at bottom of page first)
It was a cold and windy night
when I heard a little cry
coming from an alley way
and I had to see just why.
I saw a tiny kitten
as black as she could be,
with just a little orange spot
so I named her Halloween.
I put her in my pocket
to try to keep her warm .
I could tell that she'd been out there
just weathering the storm.
I nursed her and I cared for her
and she grew up like a queen.
She took the whole house over...
anything for Halloween.
She has her catnip toys around
and a bed of fancy lace.
She has such pretty golden eyes
and a sweet look on her face.
She always sleeps right next to me.
Yeah, we make quite a team.
And now she owns the family...
anything for Halloween.
Now when witches fly upon their brooms
and ghosts come out and scream;
as we hand out the treats, I say,
"Here's to Halloween!"
