On the Lighter Side

I don’t like the da, da da, da dark 
Keep the nightlight on, please! 
I would rather sit in the park 
With the Sun always on, you see 
I for real really don’t like the dark 
Especially when evil lurking shadows 
Leep out at me, sneak up on me 
I would really rather be 
Kneading some luminescent Play Do 
Eating some glowing (s)lime green Jello 
Skipping silver dollars in the pool 
Being a downright good fellow 
I will not goof around like a fool 
Just sipping da margaritas 
And being really really mellow and cool 

That’s me, mellow and cool
