Mary Had A Little Troll Abracadabra
Mary had a little troll,
Little troll, little troll,
Mary had a little troll,
Its heart was black as the devil – oh.
And everywhere that Mary went,
Mary went, Mary went,
And everywhere that Mary went
The troll was sure to wreck – oh.
It followed her to London one day,
London one day, London one day,
It followed her to London one day,
But the troll had sunk the bridge – oh.
So Mary went to a house instead,
A house instead, a house instead,
So Mary went to a house instead,
And the troll robbed Hubbard’s cupboard – oh.
The troll threw Mary down a river in Alaska,
A river in Alaska, a river in Alaska,
The troll threw Mary down a river in Alaska,
So Mary had to row on her boat – oh.
The troll handed her a handful of roses,
A handful of roses, a handful of roses,
The troll handed her a handful of roses,
And Mary sneezed like mad – oh.
Mary, in rage, gave him a piece of her mind,
A piece of her mind, a piece of her mind,
Mary, in rage, gave him a piece of her mind,
And the troll gave her twinkling little stars on her head – oh.
With fiddles, teapots and breaking eggs,
Breaking eggs, breaking eggs,
With fiddles, teapots and breaking eggs,
The troll almost murdered Mary – oh.
So Jack and Jill came to Mary’s rescue,
Mary’s rescue, Mary’s rescue,
So Jack and Jill came to Mary’s rescue,
And threw their water at the troll – oh.
The troll threw Jack over the candlestick,
The candlestick, the candlestick
The troll threw Jack over the candlestick,
And Jill to MacDonald’s farm – oh.
With silver bells and cockle shells,
Cockle shells, cockle shells,
With sliver bells and cockle shells.
The troll was almost defeated, though.
The eensy weensy spider climbed up the troll’s leg,
The troll’s leg, the troll’s leg,
The eensy weensy spider climbed up the troll’s leg,
And the troll came tumbling after Jack – oh.
Black sheep and biting fish,
Biting fish, biting fish,
Black sheep and biting fish,
Went round a shut him up for good – oh.
Mary, Jack, Jill and everyone else,
Everyone else, everyone else,
Mary, Jack, Jill and everyone else,
Started trying to find Hubbard’s dog instead.
