OUT OF CLEAR BLUE SKIES, YOU KNOW, THE BEASTIES NEVER COME
THEY WAIT, YOU SEE, FOR NIGHT, OR FOG, OR PANDEMONIUM -
STREAMING DOWN UPON US IN A MOSTEST FEARSOME WAY
THEY COME IN BUNCHES, UGLY, MEAN, AND TAKE YOUR BREATH AWAY
AND I CAN TELL YOU FOLKS FOR SURE, THEY�RE NOT GOOD FOR A BOY-
THEY�LL TAKE YOU OUT AND TIE YOU UP AND TOSS YOU LIKE A TOY
AND DON�T THINK YOU CAN GET AWAY, NOT EVEN IF YOU�RE FAST-
�CAUSE THEY�LL GET YOU NO MATTER WHAT! AND THAT WILL BE YOUR LAST!
I AM SO SCARED OF GHOSTS, YOU SEE, BECAUSE THEY WEAR THOSE SHEETS-
WITH NOTHING IN THEM, THAT�S THE SCARY PART, NOT EVEN FEETS!
BUT THEY HAVE EYES, I KNOW FOR SURE, AND THEY CAN BURN RIGHT THROUGH-
BUT IF YOU DON�T LOOK RIGHT AT THEM, THEY CANNOT LOOK THROUGH YOU!
GO OUT AT NIGHT? YOU BET I WON�T! I�LL TUCK ME IN SO TIGHT!--
AND STAY IN BED UNTIL IT�S SAID THERE�S NO MORE SPOOKS TONIGHT-
MY MOTHER TOLD ME NOT TO WORRY, FOR IF I�VE BEEN GOOD,
THEY�D NEVER BOTHER ME AT ALL, NOT EVEN IF THEY COULD.
