Mysterious Arrival

Drenched by the relentless rain 
He waltzed right up to me 
Dragging around a battered bag 
It was quite the sight to see 

He waltzed right up to me 
He told me a short tale 
It was quite the sight to see 
As he spoke my face did pale 

He told me a short tale 
It shocked me to my core 
As he spoke my face began to pale 
He said it washed up on the shore 

It shocked to my core 
What he saw was quite the sight 
He said it washed up on the shore 
It was packaged up quite tight

What he saw was quite the sight 
It was sure to drive one insane 
It was packaged up quite tight 
Drenched by the relentless rain
