There goes mary...
On her way down to the shop
She's off to buy some liquorice
And lots of fizzy pop...
Sweet tooth mary...
With her teeth as black as sin
She gave the children nightmares
When she smiled her mouldy grin
She chomped her way through toffee bars
And bags filled to the brim
With sugar cakes and frosted flakes
But mary's fate was grim
For mary learnt a lesson
A price for her sweet taste
She spent her cash on candy
And never bought toothpaste
That night as mary lay in bed
With sweet wrappers beneath
Toothfairies came with hobnailed boots
And kicked out all her teeth !
