the mechanical girl

in the court of augustine the twelfth

the king reprimanded his men

and demanded they

put to good use all his wealth

to cure his deep ennui

for you see

he found that he was sad and lonely

ever since his wife

the queen

got mad and

rode off on his steed

in a glen beyond the castle wall

there was a tinker

and he was a thinker

the smartest man in all the world

he made a mechanical girl

for you see

his daughter passed away that summer

and though he knew he could not replace her

he missed his family

suddenly a knock at the door went ra-ta-ta-ta-ta

and the kingsmen came in blowing horns ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba

by order of his highness
