My nurse she tells me stories too	A
To make me good she says but I	B
She scares me so I want to cry	B
And if my father ever knew	A
I guess he'd make things pretty hot	C
And show her that she'd better not	C
	-
Last night I could n't sleep because	D
She scared me with a story yes	E
Because I had been bad I guess	E
And said I hated Santa Claus	D
And everything and then she told	F
This story that just made me cold	F

Little Boy Bad a way he had	G
Of making his father and mother mad	G
Until one day he ran away	H
To a wood where the cats of the witches stay	H
And there he tarried awhile to play	H
For a little while in the witches' way	H
	-
II	B
	-
When night drew nigh he heard a cry	B
And in every bush he saw an eye	B
Then three by three from every tree	I
Big coal black cats came stealthily	H
With great green eyes that seemed to be	I
As big as the moon in a graveyard tree	I
	-
III	B
	-
Upon the ground they ringed him round	J
And glared at him without a sound	J
And with the glare he felt his hair	K
Rise slowly slowly in despair	K
While hard he shook from feet to hair	K
	-
IV	L
	-
Then down the gloom upon her broom	M
An old hag witch came shrieking 'Room '	-
Then snarled 'Hold tight You're mine to night '	-
And grabbed and whisked him out of sight	N
And no one's seen him since that night	N

Little Girl Rude was never good	O
And never did the thing she should	O
And so one day she ran away	H
To a wood where the owls of the goblins stay	H
And there for a while she stopped to play	H
For a little while in the goblins' way	H
	-
VI	L
	-
When night drew near she seemed to hear	P
A noise of wings in the ivy sere	Q
Then a hooting cry went shuddering by	L
And in every tree she saw an eye	L
A great round eye in each tree near by	L
	-
VII	L
	-
Then two by two from the ivy flew	H
Gaunt ghost gray owls with eyes steel blue	H
And wing to wing within a ring	R
Around her they began to swing	R
And made the woods with hootings ring	R
	-
VIII	L
	-
And as the brood tu whit tu whooed	H
Oh how she wished she had been good	H
Her hair arose from head to toes	S
Her marrow slowly slowly froze	S
While hard she shivered teeth and toes	S
	-
IX	S
	-
And then she saw a hairy claw	H
Reach from beneath and clutch and draw	H
Till in the ground her feet she found	H
While goblin laughter circled round	H
And since that night she's not been found	H
