"Sleeping In A Michael's Halloween Section"
(feat. Rebel Cats)

It was a hot and sweaty Summerween
But my mind wasn't on the beach
Halloween's coming, no time to wait
It's time to decorate
I grabbed my wallet and out the door
To the Michael's craft store
To scare up some Halloween decor

"It's much too soon you'll never find"
Said some friends of mine
"Halloween stuff this time of year!"
But you'd be wrong, my dear
I walked right in and door to door
Was Halloween galore
Then I heard
"Ten minutes until we close the store"

I got a cart and a basket knowing that I had to hurry
Up and down each aisle I had to scurry
Grabbing every creepy thing in site
Feeling like a kid on a Halloween night

I grabbed a candle
A big black cat
A coffin-shaped tray
A marker for grave
A ghost and a frame
A spider and a bowl and more
"5 minutes 'til we close the store"

I got a skull and a bat and a crow
An Edgar Allan Poe
A skelly in a pose
I got a black rose
String lights and a spooky tree
And it's all comin' home with me

I got a wreath
A haunted house
A candelabra, too
A cauldron for a witches brew
A jack-o-lantern and a snake and more!
"Ladies and gents, we've closed the store!"

I'm sleeping in a Michael's tonight
I'm sleeping in a Michael's tonight
They were closing up but I wanted more
And I got trapped in the store
Now, I'm sleeping in a Michael's tonight

I'm sleeping in a Michael's tonight
I'm sleeping in a Michael's tonight
Honestly, upon reflection
Sleeping in a Michael's Halloween section
Sounds like a great way to spend the night

Hey, this is alright!

The next day at 9am
When they opened the door again
They found me sleeping in aisle five
Surprised I was alive
And when they kindly asked me if I ate
I showed them an empty crate
Of candy melts and a jar of modeling paste

They marveled at the bed I'd made
Out of yarn and a nice brocade
Cosplay prints by Yaya Han
Was the bed I was sleeping on
And when I came out from beneath the sheets
The manager let out a shriek
I was covered in glitter from my head
Down to my feet

I slept inside a Michael's last night
I slept inside a Michael's last night
They were closing up but I wanted more
And I got trapped in the store
And slept inside a Michael's last night

I slept inside a Michael's last night
I slept inside a Michael's last night
Honestly, it was perfection
Sleeping in a Michael's Halloween section
Was a crafty way to spend the night

They apologized prodigiously
Asked what they could do for me
I said let me sleep here 'til it's Halloween
