Peter and The Pirate


The boy who never grew old

The pirate who always gave chase

But the real story was never told

 

Peter had stolen his daughter

The man was stricken with grief

The boy he swore to slaughter

 

But the boy was never caught

The girl's body was found

And the pirate remained forever distraught
