Stick and Poke - Poe lyrics

[Verse 1] Little Marshall enjoyed the woods He'd stay out all night if he could But with his mom yelling 'go to bed' He could only dream about the forest in his head Then one night Marshall stayed up late Ignoring his mothers cries of hate He ran from is house into the deep Forest, unknowing what in the darkness creeped [Chorus] Faster and faster he ran through the woods Far from his home, away from where he should Be, the night is too dark for a child Too cold, too black, too grim and too wild [Verse 2] Marshall spotted a tree, it was black and tall But underneath it there was a beast that was, calling out What a bloodthirsty shriek It sprung and chased poor Marshall into the deep As Marshall was running he wondered why He had left his house, he was sure to die! In the forest, a cabin, there was still hope Glob had finally thrown little Marshall a rope [Chorus] Faster and faster he ran through the woods Far from his home, away from where he should Be, the night is too dark for a child Too cold, too black, too grim and too wild [Verse 3] A man in the cabin let Marshall in He slammed the door with a toothy grin With the beast outdoors and the man inside There was plainly no place for Marshall to hide Marshall came to see he had lost the chase The man grabbed his arm with a forceful embrace That was it for poor Marshall there was no way out He opened his mouth but he could not shout! The beast crashed through the window mangling the man Marshall fell to the floor, releasing his hand Marshall saw in the light, the beast was little dog Poe His trusty black lab had vanquished his foe! With the moon down low and the sun rising up What a frightful night he had endured with his pup They trotted side by side out of the woods Trailing behind them a puddle of the man's blood
