[JB]  Fear.  Fear!

The thing I’m mainly frightened of is fear.

If we should spot a lion,

You’ll see a grown man cryin’.

My feet will take me flyin’

Out of here,

Out of fear.  Fear!

I toss and turn all night because of fear.

If we should see a gator,

Then I will see you later!

I won’t stay to debate her.

Is that clear?

‘Cause of fear.

[LA]  You wouldn’t mind a tiny baby pig.

[JB]  You feed them things, and they can grow this big.

[LA]  How about a baby kangaroo?

[JB]  His pouch might hide a boomerang or two.

[LA]  You wouldn’t be bothered by a tiny little ant.

[JB]  Last Tuesday I was panicked by a plant.

[LA]  How about a friendly, frisky puppy?

[JB]  My friend, I once went screaming from a guppy.

Fear.  Fear!

The thing I’m mainly frightened of is fear.

Just show me gorilla.

I’ll turn a blank vanilla,

And I’ll be very ill a-

Bout a year,

‘Cause of fear.  ‘Cause of fear.  ‘Cause of fear!
