a grim christmas story

on the first day of christimas

my true love said to me

oh sarah

my sweet pea

on the second day of christmas

my true love lied to me

oh

what a pity

now he lies on the bottom of the sea

on the third day of christmas

the milkman come to see

if my husband was home

for a pint of beer

the question he popped and

my jaws nearly dropped!

oh

what a pity

he had it coming

now there's two on the bottom of the sea

on the fourth day of christmas

the milkman's wife come by

worried to her bones she was

of her husband's life

a blow to her head

it made everything all right

oh what a pity

she had it coming

a knife cut her throat

now there's three on the bottom of the sea

on the fifth day of christmas

my true love got revealed

he was keen on something else

than his wife. that's me!

i went to see his mistress

just to have a talk

then i went home. or not!

that was not a pity

chopped her like meat

put her in a sack

now there's four on the bottom of the sea

on the sixth day of christmas

a man knocked on my door

asked for my husban

my true love

damn

what a pity

this is getting messy

strangled him to death

now there's five on the bottom of the sea

on the seventh day of christmas

the police knocked my door

told me the milkman's son

had given them a call

by asking some questions

they found out what i'd done

oh

what a pity

end of my story

sarah's going to jail!

quickly i came up with a cunning plan

look at the time

it's almost five

i bring you tea

with a special treat!

the poison made them sleep

a dagger made them bleed

time for me to flee!

now there's eight on the bottom of the sea

yes there's eight on the bottom of the sea!
