Nursery rhyme or musical chairs

When a tarantula sits down beside you,
and you're frightened away,
is anyone surprised?

Not I, said the scaredy cat.

Balloons, bubblegum,
tires and taxes --- inflate;
sink holes and overwatered cacti,
retaliate... 'er deflate.

Rediscover your inner child;
have fun, be silly.

Whether a teaspoon or tablespoon,
a spoonful of sugar
helps the medicine go down.

Is doom ever impending?
Not in God's world.
