2. Afraid to be
Afraid [01:25]
Performed by: Red
Why am I afraid to cry? And why am I so proud? I seem to fear, To show my tears. And why am I afraid to cry? Afraid of fear? Afraid to be afraid? I know my friends would still be friends, If I should reach the end. They'd hold me near, And dry my tears. So why am I so petrified? Afraid of fear? Afraid to be afraid?
Performed by: Red, Uncle Matt, Pa Gorg, etc.

Give me one and give me two, Cover me with muck and goo. Give me three and give me four, Cover me with guck and gore. One, two, muck and goo, Down my sock and in my shoe. Three, four, guck and gore, Spin me 'round and sing some more. Give me five and give me six, Cover me with big, fat sticks. Give me seven, give me eight. Cover me with slime and slate. Five, six and big, fat sticks, An ice cream cone for me to lick. Seven, eight, slime and slate, Sing it now and don't be late. Give me, give me number nine, A bag of bones and a ball of twine. Give me, give me number ten, Run back home and start again. Nine, nine, a ball of twine, First it's yours and then it's mine. Ten, ten, that's the end, So run back home and start again. Run back home and start again.
