Mother said

Straight ahead

Not to delay

Or be misled

I should have heeded

Her advice

But he seemed so nice

And he showed me things

Many beautiful things

That I hadn't thought to explore

They were off my path

So I never had dared

I had been so careful

I never had cared

And he made me feel excited

Well excited and scared

When he said

Come in

With that sickening grin

How could I know what was in store

Once his teeth were bared

Though I really got scared

Well excited and scared

But he drew me close

And he swallowed me down

Down a dark slimy path

Where lie secrets

That I never want to know

And when everything familiar

Seems to disappear forever

At the end of the path

Was granny once again

So we wait in the dark

Until someone sets us free

And you brought us to the light

And we're back at the start

And I know things now

Many valuable things

That I hadn't known before

Do not put your faith

In a cape and a hood

They will not protect you

The way that they should

And take extra care with strangers

Even flowers have their dangers

And though scary is exciting

Nice is different than good

Now I know

Don't be scared

Granny is right

Just be prepared

Isn't it nice to know a lot

And a little bit not
