Lyrics

Why are you scared, Tony?
Why are you scared, Tony?
Is it the fear that ISIS will spread?
If you piss them off they’ll cut off your head.
They’ll come for you when you’re asleep in bed.
Is that why you’re scared, Tony?
Why are you scared, Tony?

Why are you scared, Tony?
Is it Ebola, Tony?
If you think about it, it’s like the flu
It might kill me and it might kill you
And if we’re lucky it will get Raju
Is that why you’re scared, Tony?
Why are you scared, Tony?

Some other folks might be a little more worried than you are.
Phobic, neurotic too.
Maybe, but none of them will ever panic the way you do,
It’s sad but true, boy.

And as the years go by,
You know you will surely die.
It’s an inevitability.
So why are you scared, Tony?
Why are you scared, Tony?
Oh, why are you scared Tony?

    Still one of my favorites, have you ever thought of doing "Sticker Me" for Newman's "Tickle Me"?
