What am I afraid of, anyway?

I知 not frightened of things that go bump in the night.
When I知 ready to sleep I just turn out the light.
I don稚 hesitate a minute but others might.
I知 not afraid of the dark
(As long as I have a night light!) I知 not scared to go in a house,
that痴 rumored to be haunted by a monstrous mouse.
Sylvester may run through it fast but I leasurely browse.
I知 not afraid of rodents.
(Unless they are really Kangaroos!)
I知 not spooked by ghostly apparitions.
Being friendly with them is a family tradition.
just ask my family... you have my permission.
I知 not afraid of spirits.
(Well, maybe the liquid kind!)
I知 not fearful of aliens from Mars.
Why I壇 be their agent and make them all stars!
Other people would rather see them behind bars.
I知 not afraid of Martians.
(Unless they PROBE me!)
I知 not terrified of a Transylvanian prince.
If he showed me his fangs I wouldn稚 even wince;
But you壇 better believe I壇 take the hints!
I知 not afraid of Vampires.
(As long as I have on a steel turtleneck!)
None of these things bother me in the least.
I fear no boogie-man, monster or beast.
I知 not frightened of a cliff side view.
The only thing I知 afraid of is losing you!

(Dedicated to all my friends!) This is for you.
