As the steady hands rush

From the porch it follows us

And you'd think that his hand was so long

But you know it’s not the case

Because he went and showed his face

Found a spot to kill the time and look around

Found a spot to kill the time and look around

And you know his rhymes by heart

And you duck his chance to start

Stroll on by with a smile and I meet him

Stroll on by with a smile and I meet him

And his deeds are met with shouts

As he turns to go back out

And he trips in to the bottom of the well

And he trips in to the bottom of the well

He vanished in the park

Your home was empty in the dark

She tried to lock you up and keep you far away

But you walked a hundred miles

And put the hag up on trial

And got the keys and gave them to your chosen son

And got the keys and gave them to the wrong one

Kill some time and look around and give a smile from ear to ear and (?) tripping to the bottom of the well
