Life Doesn't Frighten Me

by: Maya Angelou

Shadows on the wall 

Noises down the hall

Life doesn't frighten me at all

Bad dogs barking loud

Big ghosts in a cloud

Life doesn't frighten me at all.

Mean old Mother Goose

Lions on the loose

They don't frighten me at all

Dragons breathing flame

On my counterpane

That doesn't frighten me at all.

I go boo

Make them shoo

I make fun

Way they run

I won't cry

So they fly

I just smile

They go wild

Life doesn't frighten me at all.

Tough guys in a fight

All alone at night

Life doesn't frighten me at all

Panthers in the Park

Strangers in the dark

No, they don't frighten me at all

That new classroom where

Boys all pull my hair

(Kissy little girls with their hair in curls)

They don't frighten me at all

Don't show me frog and snakes

And listen for my scream,

If I'm afraid at all

It's only in my dreams.

I've got a magic charm

That I keep up my sleeve,

I can walk the ocean floor

And never have to breathe.

Life doesn't frighten me at all

Not at all

Not at all

Life doesn't frighten me at all
