adventures of isabel
Singer:merchant, natalie
isabel met an enormous bear
bear's big mouth was cruel and cavernous
isabel didn't scream or scurry
washed her hands straightened her hair up
then isabel ate the bear up
once in a night black as pitch
isabel met a wicked old witch
witch's face was cross and wrinkled
witch's gums with teeth were sprinkled
i'll turn you into an ugly toad
isabel didn't scream or scurry
turned the witch into milk and drank her
isabel met a hideous giant
one eye in the middle of his forehead
i'll grind your bones and make my bread
isabel didn't scream or scurry
nibbled on his zwieback that she fed off
she cut the giant's head off
isabel met a troublesome doctor
punched and poked till he really shocked her
doctor's talk was of coughs and chills
doctor's satchel bulged with pills
isabel didn't scream or scurry
took those pills from the pill concocter
then isabel cured the doctor
