Salem's Got A Lot To Answer For

The scratching of his finger nails 

Gave me a such a scare

The boy who hovered up and down 

Through the window he did glare.

To watch the movie Salem's Lot

Seemed so cool when i was young

It wasn't till i got to bed 

I'd discover what i'd done.

The thought of open windows 

Was a nightmare in my dreams

The only time i opened them 

Was when i got into my teens.

That David Soul i thought was cool

Like he was when he played Hutch

Salem's Lot was not a place

He fancied very much.

Thanks to Him and Salem 

I spent my youth in fear

In the stuffiest of bedrooms

Till i reached my 13th year.
