Sally The Rag Doll


As a certain skeleton paraded ‘round
That totally frightening town square:
Rag Doll Sally, who down in the lab,
Was stripping the pantry bare.

She nicked stinky Frog’s Breath and Deadly Nightshade,
As part of her elaborate plan;
To sneak out of the lab, and go see Jack Skellington,
Halloween Town’s main man.

So after Finknlestein had slurped the concoction gone,
Sally walked right out the door;
But this victory would not last,
For shortly, Finkle was back, and mad to the core

Then Sally fled to the hill
(Where the tippity-top is curved),
It was there Jack sung his lamentation
Behind a grave, she observed.

“I know how you feel, Jack” Sally pitied,
As her boney friend walked away;
And as the morning sun arose,
Sally wished she had something more comforting to say.
