Shucks those cobwebs showed up again

Hanging in the corners and under my bed

I had a dream they wound me tight

I looked like a mummy, it was such a fright

I closed my eyes and wished real quick

That I would wake up and not feel sick

My hands were tugging here and there

Pushing those cobwebs into the air

I finally woke up in a dripping sweat

Only to find my bed was wet.

No, it's not what you might think

When I flailed around I spilled my drink

My mom was sweet, she did not yell

But I had to clean my room, better than well.

The cobwebs are no longer at hand

The cup of water by the bed was banned

Now my room is shiny and bright

Missing cobwebs in the dark of night

It smells so fresh, and I sleep so sound

Dreaming of floating on a cloud.
