Things That Go Bump In the Night
I. And the moon is listening...
I lie in bed at night and listen.
Doors creak and walls moan,
Faucets drip and the house is settling.
And the moon is listening...
I lie in bed at night and listen.
Mice creep and clocks tick,
Cars send signals across my ceiling.
And the moon is listening...
My cats go bumpity-bump all night,
On the table knocking things down! Bumpity-bumpity-bumpity-bumpity-bump!
I lie in bed at night and listen.
Snow falls and branches sway,
Wind chimes clatter in the breeze.
And the moon is listening...And I drift to sleep...

Scorch was designed by the folks who built Sibelius notation software, as a simple way to allow Sibelius scores to become webpages. Despite its slightly ominous name, Scorch is free, is not excessively large (approx. 1 MB), and does not do anything demonic like put you on a mailing list or affect other computer programs. - E.A.
