I glanced up at the illuminated sky
A full moon glared from outer space
Its silver glow lighting up my face.
I strolled along enjoying the sight
I walked past a store closed for the night
I walked past a church with steeples so high
I walked and walked and let out a big sigh
All of a sudden, I heard a growl
I turned towards the gnarly sound
Lips pulled back, yellow eyes, sharp teeth
I spun around, I turned to flee
Go faster, go faster I told my feet
Closer and closer it came to me
Go faster, go faster I told my feet
So close, too close it came to me
Lips pulled back, yellow eyes, sharp teeth
This could not be real, I must be asleep
Wake up Wake up
I said in my head
Just then I jumped up
I was still in my bed.
