Help a little goblin out and SCREAM!
A goblin needs to prove that it is scary.
Let go a howl. Pretend the goblin's mean.
Let it pretend that it's grotesque and hairy.
Other, meaner goblins bully it.
When Halloween comes round, they like to say,
"Every goblin should be nightmare fit."
Except this goblin doesn't feel that way.
Now SCREAM! And then go out with it to play.
