[Verse 1] Took one step, started to climb Told myself I'd be just fine Up, up, up, gonna touch the sky Till I looked down and wondered why I'm scared of heights, my knees turned weak My courage took a sudden leak Frozen stiff in the Halloween air Like a Disney witch had caught me there [Pre-Chorus] Blackened sky and shadows creep One eye open, no sleep I took one look and said my prayer Then hollered out, "I'm not goin' there!" [Chorus] Nope, nope, nope, not goin' there! Too darn high and I don't dare! Step on down, get back on the ground Safe and sound is where I'm bound Nope, nope, nope, turn me around! Both feet planted on solid ground I may be chicken, I may be scared But nope, nope, nope, not goin' there! [Verse 2] Pumpkins glowing, orange and bright Witches cackling in the night I'm lookin', scanning, peering through Then something moves — and I'm outta view! I step away, I breathe a sigh Ain't no way I'm climbing high Then I smell a steak on the grill Now that's a mountain I can climb at will! [Pre-Chorus 2] One big steak, a baked potato Pass the sauce, I'll see you later Full as a tick, I lean back in my chair Now I've got another kind of scare! [Chorus] Nope, nope, nope, not goin' there! Too darn high and I don't dare! Step on down, get back on the ground Safe and sound is where I'm bound Nope, nope, nope, turn me around! Both feet planted on solid ground I may be chicken, I may be scared But nope, nope, nope, not goin' there! [Bridge] Am I safe? Well, am I though? Calories in, my weight might grow Ladder drills, gotta work it out Two steps up and I'm turning about! I'm tired, I'm done, I've had my share Somebody else can climb that stair! [Final Chorus] Nope, nope, nope, not goin' there! Too darn high and I don't dare! Step on down, get back on the ground Safe and sound is where I'm bound Nope, nope, nope, hear me shout! That's what this whole life's all about! Scared of heights, but I don't care Nope, nope, nope, NOT GOIN' THERE! [Outro] Step, climb, up? Nope! Way up high? Nope! Witches? Pumpkins? Halloween? I'll take my steak and keep it clean! Nope! Not goin' there!
