78454 (Jimmy)

From the album Periplaneta, released April 2002

One of the Embellishments of Lasi Tuteyrum, the melody for this song was created randomly by the Lasi Tuteyrum melody creator. The melody is in five and the beat is in four on top of that. This song turned out to be pretty neat.

Lyrics

I had a little friend, his name was Jimmy
And he'd talk to me at night
Said it was all right
When I lay in bed, and there was no light.

I stare at the wall, but it was dark, I can't see anything at all
Except for what was in my head,
Alligators under the bed
And I was afraid to fall.

Though I lay in fear of all the monsters that are here,
Spiders, snakes and sharks,
Lurking in the dark
I am not afraid.

But I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid in the night
To go to sleep, and wait for morning's light.
To go to sleep, and wait for morning's light.
