I'm sitting in the cupboard On the landing in my house Scared witless by a noise That woke me from a deep and peaceful sleep
I heard the footsteps creeping Oh so very, very slowly Up and up they came Till no more could I stand it.
A creak of floorboard by my bed Terror in my veins I really though my heart would stop Till I realised it was Fred...
Home from work he had come A night shift, one of many But sleepy, dopey, lovely Fred Had muddled up the rota
How very glad I was to get of of that dark dank cupboard And have a cuddle with my hubbie Never minding dust and cobwebs A-hanging from my nose!
