What's that?
Who's there?
There's a great, huge, horrible, horrible
Creeping up the stair!
A huge, big, terrible, terrible
With creepy, crawly hair!
There's a ghastly, grisly, ghastly
With seven slimy eyes!
And flabby, grabby, tentacles
Of a gigantic size!
He's crept into my room now,
He's leaning over me.
I wonder if he's thinking
How delicious I will be.
