Analysis of What Will You Do
What will you do
When they come at night
With wide-open mouths
Preparing to bite?
What will you do
When they arrive in the day
With flapping tongues
And insist they stay?
What will you do
When you know they weren't there;
It was just your imagination
Another temporary scare?
