I've seen things.
I've seen things that are good,
I've seen things that are bad.
I've watched people.
I've watched people make bad choices,
I've watched people make good choices.
I've looked at animals.
I've looked at them sleeping,
I've looked at them awake.
I see!
I see!
I see!
My eyes don't close!
They watch!
They watch!
They watch!
Close my eyes!
You can't!
You can't!
You can't!
Like a wise old owl,
I watch the night.
