Tell Me What Happened

Tell me what happened
Is it about school?

Is it your brother who's
Nasty and cruel?

Is it your friend who's
As cool as a pool?

You've got to tell me
What happened at school.

If I tell you, you
Better not laugh

Otherwise I'll
Rip your scarf.

Yesterday night I slept
In the dark so what

Else can I tell you...
I'm scared of the dark.
