When the circus left town, we had a parade,
the band played on and floats were made.
I looked sideways as they passed,
these bits and pieces, they were the last.
We beat our chests
and cried out loud,
the Tui's head looked dead, not proud. CJ 2010

Down
in the dunnywag
where the liversausage grows,
there lives a grimmerswack
with hair all long and dressed in black.
He doesn't wash, or take a bath,
he sits alone beside his hearth.
Beside that crackling hellish fire
he makes little dolls of wood and wire,
figures of fun, like you and me
and he sticks heaps of pins in
tee hee hee!
He hangs them in the trees
from their toes,
and they rattle like bones
there lives a grimmerswack

and he sticks heaps of pins in
tee hee hee!
He hangs them in the trees
from their toes,
and they rattle like bones
when the wind blows.
I went to see him
to tell him to stop,
but he's hard to find,
he runs from me,
trippety hop.
He grumbles and grunts,
he must be heard,
I can't think, or talk,
not one word.
I must get rid of this
mean little elf,
but I've come to like him,
he's like myself. CJ 2010
