Dark Troubles
Oh I hate the dark, I'm very afraid
It's so big and black, an unfortunate shade
It's murky, and horrid believe me its true
I don't care what you say; I am just not like you
Why go anywhere when you can't see a thing
It's so silly I tell you no good it will bring
And please don't try and tell me the moon will light my way
It's still dark, and scary, my mind you'll not sway
Of course the unfortunate thing is you see
That by rights this phobia is not quite right for me
But how does one get rid of a fear of the dark just like that
Even if one is a rather scared and timid, little brown bat
