The Gardener from Hell
Fat Jimmy’s eyes shone brightly
As he saw the giant marrows
The large prize winning turnips
And the rows of wheel barrows
But as he went up to the house
To take a look inside
He had the strangest feeling
That he was being eyed
“So come inside my fat young friend
So come inside, come in”
“But is it safe”
“Of course it is”
Sit down and let’s begin
The gardener was completely mad
He took a pitch fork to his dad
He minced him up
He minced him well
And made him into pies
And sold them to the villagers
Who ate with bulging eyes
I mince them up
I mince them well
Coz I’m the gardener
From hell
They asked him if he had more pies
Because they were delicious
Of course the gardener replied
So not to seem suspicious
He said “A feast up at my house
And bring your children too”
They came and said
“Now what’s to eat”
And he replied “It’s you!”
I mince them up
I mince them well
Coz I’m the gardener
From hell
And to the gardener’s surprise
The people loved to scoff his pies
So he bought a large mincing machine
He’d pop them in
And hear them scream
But then one day whilst mincing hard
And having lots of fun
He tripped and fell
Into the machine
His mincing days were done
He minced them up
He minced them well
He was the gardener from hell
“And so my child” they say at night
“The gardener’s ghost you’ll see”
“But sir, I’m scared”
“Of course you are
Because the gardener’s me”
“I’ll mince and slice
And chop and splice
It really won’t be very nice
I’ll drain your blood
Cut off your head
Then pour it on the flower bed”
“And then those tasty little roots
Will suck it from the mud
My vegetables grow much larger
When they’re fed on human blood”
Fat Jimmy jumped up from his chair
And ran towards the street
But he was just too fat
And couldn’t escape
So he ended up as mincemeat!
