DEATH HOTEL

If you ever wonder through Kent
Accidentally in the darkest regent
In the haunted town where there's nary a house
All is quieter than a dead mouse
No movement there does occur
Quieter than death itself
Woe forbid the mistrod stranger
Who wanders upon this darkened Hell,
Who is tired in search of food
Stumbles across and dares to brood
A stranger once did dare to pass
Wasn't frightened to trespass
He who ventured broke the spell
And released the curse of death hotel
He did stray in search of rest
This man's soul did death invest
He woke to find movement unable
He woke to find himself chained to the table
A thing came towards him with a chain saw
Through the legs began to gnaw
Thought "MY God I must be dreaming"
Until he heard himself clearly screaming
Her cried out loud and started to shout
The pain was immense. He passed out
He woke up when he should have been dead
No arms no legs just a stump and a head
You may ask yourself how I know
All the facts so detailed so
It's like this you soon will see
That trespasser. It was me
