I had a strange and sudden feeling
That something was tapping on the ceiling.
I was feeling pretty sure,
That I had heard a very deep roar!
Then I saw an eye looking through the door.
It was large, scary and coloured blood red Feeling panicky, I said "I hope it’s nothing"
But, just as I thought, I'll turn on the tele As quick as a flash, I was in its belly!
