Mummy
The Devil wants to make me his mummy
His thievery steals all my money
And his laugh is not so funny
When he makes me look like a dummy
As a puppet I have been his bunny
My tears flow and nose is so runny
Where's is my love who so yummy?
His laugh is yet so very funny
He heals my heart, soul and tummy
His arms hold the love of my mummy!
