Bug Bear

Be my conscience when
I have no one to defend
All the letters have conspired
To do me harm

He is elusive
Not to mention sweet
Peering over my bed's edge
I spot his feet

Who would have known how long that he would wait?
(Not me that is implied)
I feel he's earned my respect
The reprobate

I'm all tucked in bed
My eyelids feel like lead
I can almost see him start
To salivate

Where life begins I've always got a car running
That's right that's what I said
I never use the spare
That's where...
