Jacky Jack Satin

Jacky Jack Satin
a cute little chap
a complexion of red
on the face of a cat

When waking one day
he jumped out of bed
quite startled and frightend
his face was quite scared

He dreamed that his son
would fall from a log
and then end up drowning
in some muddy bog

now being a father 
of quick wit and strong
he determined to stop it
he'd stop what was wrong

Believing his dream
a predition of truth 
he build up a fortress
he'd protect his son's youth

He filled it with games
and plenty of toy's
but still as a building
a prison remains

His son hated living
trapped like a rat
climbed over the wall
ran off with the cat

You can not let fear
rule the days of your life
you'll end up both lonely
and broken with strife
