to the tune of My Favorite Things

Spiders, clown faces,
And bridges collapsing.
Burglars who break in on you
While you’re napping.
Slivers and big dogs who
Foam at the mouth,
These kinds of fears turn anxieties south.
 
Zombies and barfing
Free falls from high places,
Tornadoes, lightning and
Tightly closed spaces,
Birds that attack and
All things that sting,
These are a few of our scariest things.
 
When there’s alley fights,
Entries with no lights,
When you’re home alone,
These are a few of the scariest things,
And fears of the great unknown.
 
IRS letters and CPS knocking
Nightmares of falling
And empty chairs rocking,
Faces in windows when you’re in the shower
I can think up most anything scary at this hour.
 
(reprise Chorus)
