Troll Lullaby

Don't let the troll into your bed

He'll take your soul then eat your head

Inside the honey hollow space

Licking his fingertips of cake

He brings the whirling deep in your heart

Then sing as twirlling demons dark

To take you down beneath the ridge

To where is found his silent bridge

Still is the water green and thick

He'll drag you under with his stick

See flaxen gold floats there through the mist

He killed someone's daughter with his wick

An arm with grey skin bobs slowly in the pit

No don't let the troll creep in your door

He'll take you in sleep to his chamber of horror

Are you dreaming no use pleading

Are you dreaming he'll soon be feeding
