Poem about how the one-eyed man became king
Once upon a time
There lived a selfish one-eyed boy
He hated other children
And he'd never share his toys.

Eventually, the boy grew up,
And found a magic book.
He opened it, and with his eye
He stole a sneaky look.

He turned into a sorceror,
And killed his mum and dad -
'Cause he was always jealous
Of the one thing he didn't have.

He cast an evil spell -
Nobody could see a thing.
In the land of the blind, you see,
The one-eyed man is king!
