Elf
I am a little elf
Tinier than a mouse
I live in a bluebell forest
In a mushroom house
I don’t have a lot of money
If I did that would be cool
I could upgrade my living quarters
Into a top of the range toadstool
Living in a mushroom house
Has its down side you see
Pesky giants keep coming along
And take it for their tea
If I could afford a poisonous toadstool
Giants would never come near
And I could live out my days
In peace without any fear
No, giants and I don’t mix
I wish they’d stay clear from my zone
We would get along much better
If they didn’t eat me out of house and home
It seems it’s only me that they pick on
I really don’t know why
If they stopped eating, got to know me well
They’d see I was quite a ‘fungi’
