|
| In the black forest lives an ogre named Lockjaw. |
| Lockjaw doesn’t like children
|
| who tell lies. |
| Late at night, he stalks the houses of the fibbers and the
|
| falsifiers, and before they can cry out from their beds, he nails their jaws
|
| open with a rusty nail, using his head for a hammer. |
| You might escape him for a
|
| while and think you fooled him, but he’ll get you in the end. |
| He’ll get ya!
|
| He’ll get ya!
