The curse of the axeman in the wood


The curse of the axeman in the

wood

 

 

By A.R.T

 

There once was an axeman in the wood,

Who was cheer and good.

But one day he met a fairy,

Who was quite so merry.

 

She said she would give the woodsman luck,

For but the head of a buck.

So the woodsman said,

That he would never kill until he was dead.

 

And the the fairy placed a spell upon him,

So he would do it on a whim.

Then he killed the deer with an axe,

Witch put his sanity to the max.

 

And so the say the wood are cursed,

Filled with enough tragedy to burst.

They axeman still roams there ,

Telling us all to beware.
