Work, work, work I work just like clock work All the money I make Is not for my sake My family left a lot to be desired I guess helping them backfired One day when I woke from a holler My room seem so much smaller My legs moved awkwardly around There were six all big and brown I skittered along the floor As I tried to get out the door When I finally got out I heard a shout My family was petrified You would think they died They looked like an explorer Looking at a bear in horror I think we can agree That my parents let me be Even though she was scared My sister still cared She feed me garbage But she soon departed As time went on I became a demon spawn They through apples at me I liked them better when they let me be One of them got stuck in my back Causing a large crack I am slowly dying From this apple rotting As I sit and cry I think of all the good that went by As I lay down my head I hear them say, "Hurrah, It's dead."
