The Heartless Giant

The pirates stole the giant’s heart So that he could love no more Carried away by horse and kart To their ship just off the shore The pirates had a heart attack The giant called for a storm They decided to take the organ back So that things could return to norm The ship ripped and split in two All lives were lost at sea The heart sank deep into the blue But still continued to beat Have you ever met a heartless giant? Things would never be the same With rage and anger he grew defiant To make up for the pain
