A list of things I don't want to do:
1. I'll never stand on top of a train,
2. I don't want eternal pain.
3. Riding a walrus is a definite no,
4. I don't want to be attacked by a rabid crow.
5. I would hate to be alone in the dark
6. It would be horrible to be attacked by a shark
7. I don't want to be bitten by a snake
8. I really don't want to step on a rake
9. I don't want to be cooked in a cannibal stew
10. I'd hate to work in a garbage crew
But most of all, my dear,
I would hate to lose you.
