THE KING

6 2 0
                                    

Humbly I sit me down

Upon a plated table


In a distant castle tall

Right there with my Mable


While in a dark and dungeon hall

A linked into this fancy


Right next to the dungeon small

Lives my aunt called Clancy


Irrelevant as it may seem

The King came into town


A riding to the castle moat

To see where his queen had drowned


My auntie Clancy saw the King

And in the moat

A penny did throw


The King the miser in he dove

Right down our dragon's throat


Now Mable and I live in peace

In that castle tall


No longer are we troubled by

That King, who came, you recall


To redeem his rightful castle tall

Behind my high castle wall
