Mr gingerbread man,why so sad?
is it because I’m about to devour your head?
turn that frown into a smile,
I’ll let you keep it for a while.
there’s nothing like a tasty limb,
so, I think that’s where I’ll begin?
mmm…Chocolatey buttons,one by one,
before you know it they’re all gone!
now it’s time for your cute tummy,
crunchy,spicey,sweet and yummy.
now you’ve only got a head,oh dear!
calm yourself, don’t fret or fear.
I’ll make it quick,my confectionery friend.
(prepare to meet your” sticky end”)
