Beware the dragon
In his lair
Avoid his gaze
His fatal glare

At night here come some passerby
Tonight the dragon
He will fly
To eat and munch on passerby

He loves his jewels
They are so shiny
Lo and behold and finally
A fat rich man wanders by
The dragons eyes, they open wide
They see the jewels falling out of
The pouch
Next thing ya know it the fat man
says "ouch!"
From out of his mouth he utters a cry
The dragon is already up to his thigh
In one gobble he is gone
He should have learned from lesson one
Beware the dragon
