HE awfullest thing that ever yet wuz
Is the Rackelty-snackelty-gagelty-guz,
That don’t eat nothin’ but little boys—
A crunchin’ their bones with the terriblest noise.
If ever I see him floppin’ around
I’ll dig a big hole down into the ground
And crawl away in till he loses the scent,
Not even breathin’ until he has went.
