Saxon Crow

The Umbunkle

 

Ten feet tall and eight feet wide

A piercing scream and yellow eyes

The Umbunkle comes straight from hell

To rip your flesh and drink your soul

With rotting skin as braided hair

And the foulest breathe to spread despair

It skulks around throughout the night

Stealing loved ones full o fright

 

The Umbunkle will take it all

It doesn’t care if ye be young or old

With teeth as sharp as the longest knives

It tears apart unwary wives

And the very last sound ye will ever hear

Are the screams of your children full o fear

Beware the Umbunkle, fight his spell

Save your people from this monstrous hell

 

So all ye men of this peaceful town

Gather your arms and hunt him down

For he won’t go while ye are alive

Until only ghosts, in this place, survive

But fear ye not for there is a way

To slay this beast and your souls to save

For the Umbunkle, a creature of night

Has the greatest fear of the morning light!

 

Track ye down this evil thing

And tie him abound with spiders web

And though it will plead and beg and cry

And sound to ye like a frightened child

Do not give in to the fear ye will feel

For its tricks are born of a demons will

Be strong in spirit and know what’s true

The Umbunkle is evil through and through!

 

When dawns first light climbs above the trees

And it feels the light upon its face

The Umbunkle will scream and descend to hell

Never to return to this blessed land

Because it will learn brave hearted men here stand

Brought together in a sacred bond

The Umbunkle! Remember that name

For if ye forget ye will be slain
