Daddy, What's Traffic?

Daddy, what's traffic?

Will it come for me at night?

Will I see it in my dreams?

Will it startle me on sight?

Is it underneath my bed?

Or is it hidden in a tree?

Will it muffle my sound,

When I cry for you and mommy?

Daddy, what's traffic?

I really need to know,

So I can be ready when it comes,

In rain, sleet, or snow.
