Gather round
The campfire keeps you safe
Listen to this tale
Of how we met the human race
Our story begins
A long long time ago
disaster strikes our ship
As we try to make it back to our home
Warning. There are unknown lifeforms aboard the ship.
Shields are up, Hail the comms
They beamed aboard some aliens
The crew is scared but we’re prepared
to defend the ship because we care
Charge the phasers and hunt them down
We’ll find those aliens somehow
They’re looking hungry for a snack
Let’s hope that they do not attack
Trick or treat
We just want some candy to eat
Please, feed me
A sweet candy treat or smell my feet
Forty eyes and sharpened claws
These aliens have big ol jaws
They beamed aboard to make us scream
But all they wanted was some jelly beans
We packed ourselves for a really long trip
But we didn’t bring candy on our ship
What can we do when we’re all out
And trick or treat is what they shout
Trick or treat
We just want some candy to eat
Please, feed me
A sweet candy treat or smell my feet
Bridge to engineering can you pull off our ingenious plan
To use the high tech replicator to make candies of different flavors
They’ve got their treats so there’s no tricks
Since they’ve got lollipops to lick
We’ll see them next year it seems
When they visit on Halloween
