The song that Omi wrote

Gross Apples in the Night

(sang to the tune "Ghost Riders in the Night")

I looked beneath the covers and I looked beneath the sheets
Down at the bottom of the bed where Aidan keeps his feet.
There was something slimy there, there was an awful sight--
Gross apples in the night!

We need to make some explanations here. The Daw boys sometimes take an apple to bed to munch as they fall asleep. When I found one in Aidan's bed, Weston proclaimed "Gross apples in the night!" That inspired the song, which actually goes:

I searched beneath the blankets
And I looked beneath the sheet
Down at the bottom of the bed
Where Aidan keeps his feet.
But there was something slimy there . . .
It was an awful sight:

Gross apples in the night!
