Lyrics

You know, mum There's nothing I wouldn't do for you If there was a monster or an ogre or anything bad like that was after you I'd rip it apart with my bare fists, so I would What a sweet child it is Even if it was just a man A man, dear? A man, what was bad and what, might be luring you all unbeknownst into his evil deeds, like Here, what is this? What are you talking about? Nothing's gonna harm you Not while I'm around Nothing's gonna harm you No, sir Not while I'm around Demons are prowling everywhere nowadays I'll send them howling I don't care— I got ways Of course, you do, what a sweet, affectionate child it is No one's gonna hurt you No one's gonna dare Others can desert you— Not to worry Whistle, I'll be there Demons'll charm you with a smile for a while But in time Nothing can harm you Not while I'm around Not to worry, not too wary I may not be smart but I ain't dumb I can do it Put me to it Show me something I can overcome Not to worry, mum Being close and being clever Ain't like being true I don't need to, I won't never hide a thing from you Like some Now, let's stop all this foolish chatter and just sit here, nice and quiet Nothing's gonna harm you Not while I'm around! Nothing's gonna harm you, Toby Not while I'm around Demons are prowling everywhere nowadays I'll send them howling I don't care— Boys and their fancies! What will we think of next? No one's gonna hurt you No one's gonna dare Others can desert you Not to worry Whistle, I'll be there Demons'll charm you with a smile for a while But in time Nothing's gonna harm you Not while I'm around!
