What's So Scary About the Dark?

"What's So Scary About the Dark?" is a song from the Muppet Babies episode, "Sir Kermit the Brave". Baby Kermit and Dot the Dragon sing this song as they face their fear of the dark.

Lyrics[]

Kermit: Night falls, and I can't see nothing
I get nervous, and I start wondering
What might be hiding out there in the dark?

Dot: I'm nervous about that, too.

But let's stop and try to remember
It's gotten dark every night since, well, forever

Kermit: And none of my fears have ever come true so far

Dot: Hey, mine, neither.

Kermit: Now I'm riding through the dark with a friend
It doesn't feel so bad,
It doesn't feel so bad
The moon is beautiful, the stars are starry

Kermit and Dot: I could almost forget what was so scary about the dark
Whoo-hoo-hoo
Yeah, what's so scary about the dark?
Whoo-hoo-hoo
Yeah, what's so scary?

Kermit: Yeah, we can't see much

Dot: Because it's dark.

Kermit: But we can see enough

Kermit and Dot: Enough to wonder what's so scary about the dark?
