We’ll be walking down the streets
With our tricks and with our treats
But there’s gonna be some differences this year
We won’t wear the same old gear
That our mother made us wear
We’ll decide what our costumes are, so there!

My brother says we could be evil zombies
Dress in drag like that guy Guiliani
No more three pointed hats with the bells on
Or multicolored shirts and shoes
And a scepter too
We say “mother, please get a clue”
We won’t be fools again

The change, it had to come
We knew it all along
We are older than we were before, that’s all
And we won’t look just the same
Our attitude has changed
So our costumes must be different than last year’s

Please dress us up just like Jason and Freddie
Make us ghosts or a couple of yetis
No more three pointed hats with the bells on
Or multicolored shirts and shoes
And a scepter too
We say “mother, please get a clue”
We won’t be fools again
No, no!

And then my mom says our family has pride
We’ve been jesters since great great grandpas time
When we’re watching Batman we always debate
“Is the Joker or Riddler the most great?”

Ya know?

[Kids]
Don’t wanna be a fool!

[Mom]
Don’t you understand how cool
It can be to be a twit or a prat?

[Kids]
But they make fun of our shoes!
And then they make fun of our hats!

[Dad]
You will trick-or-treat as jesters, and that’s that!

It’s Halloween and we’re here in our bedrooms
Getting dressed in our whimsical costumes
Wearing three pointed hats with the bells on
And multicolored shirts and shoes
And a scepter too
And I guess we always knew
We would be fools again
Hyuk, hyuk!

See the new fools
Same as the old fools
