Crybaby Harry
Crybaby Harry,
Why do you cry?
Why do you pout?
Why do you sigh?
You live in an enormous home.
You're never ever all alone.
You own a deluxe fancy phone.
Why do you cry indeed?
Crybaby Harry,
Won't you wipe away your tear?
Please dear Harry, have no fear.
A monster does not lurk in your room.
All of life is not doom and gloom.
You're just too young to dream of a tomb.
Come outside and play.
