Harrison the Troll


Good old Harry lived under the tunnel
With a frame of his parents 
And his good old toy funnel
His crazy purple hair had no style
Harry walked with a scorched scent 
That eclipsed a mile
 
Harrison used to leave his cave 
He'd see all the other children 
And he'd smile and wave
The kids did not take him so fine
They'd run to their parents 
Harry heard them frown and whine
 
The parents ran to Harry
They stood so tall and scary
They yelled "Harrison you fool!
Don't you know you are a troll?
Leave here and go to your tunnel!"
So did leave Harry and his funnel
 
A troll in his cave
How bored he must be
Harry was told to never leave 
He did his best to listen
Oh believe me he tried
But he went out for a walk
And all of the flowers died
 
Harry wanted to do what trolls do
He wanted to scare little children
That's what he was good at
That's what he knew
Harry hid in a bush
And he waited for a kid to come by 
A girl walked pass and Harry made her cry
 
Harry did this more and more
He scared until he was eighty-four
Harry is a troll and a troll scares 
No need for love
No sign of compassion on any of his hairs
Scaring made him as happy as can be
Scaring  made Harry finally free
