Trembling in my bed tonight I cannot close my eyes The movie on the late, late show Says everybody dies Now some say I'm a scaredy cat But tonight is Halloween What if someone kidnaps me, And tries to eat my spleen? I know there's no great pumpkin Okay, maybe there is What if he puts a spell on me, And tries to make me his? And I think that there's a monster Who lives beneath my bed I shiver and shake and stay awake With covers over my head There's something outside my window And shadows on my wall I think I hear some rattling chains From the ghosts that's in the hall Right then I hear this eerie voice And feel this clammy hand My wife says, "Hush and go to sleep, You're supposed to be a man"

Scaredy Cat
Trembling in my bed tonight I cannot close my eyes The movie on the late, late show Says everybody dies Now some say I'm a scaredy cat But tonight is Halloween What if someone kidnaps me, And tries to eat my spleen? I know there's no great pumpkin Okay, maybe there is What if he puts a spell on me, And tries to make me his? And I think that there's a monster Who lives beneath my bed I shiver and shake and stay awake With covers over my head There's something outside my window And shadows on my wall I think I hear some rattling chains From the ghosts that's in the hall Right then I hear this eerie voice And feel this clammy hand My wife says, "Hush and go to sleep, You're supposed to be a man"
