[E]
Stunned by the castle growth when no wee thing could climb up,
that poor lady held down by only the iron bones,
walked straight across her ugly leg.
Closed on she hovered, and the wee helpless scientist
was impaled upon the glacier, howling thus.
[Em] Her service is perfect [E] pain,
the agony [Em] of [E] injection of
eye-white in [Em] her room [B] again.
[E]
[Em] Or an [E] inspection of
[F] the sun on the castle
[G] falls,
moustachiums on the enamel [E] wall,
[G] and steadily there she [E] crawls,

oh.
