We’ve got no food to eat
But we’ve got stories to tell
So come on children line up around
The night will pass on well
Wanna hear about a dragon?
Or about a little dino?
Yes the one who got really upset
When he hurt his giant toe
Or we can discuss fairies
Elves, dwarfs and gnomes
Who built in an underground cave
Their beautiful magical homes
Or why not tell some horror tales
Of those who defied death
Who spit venom as they please
Who leak blood with their breath
Oh I have got a great story
About God who lives above
He blesses us with hope and patience
With family, strength and love
Oh baby I know you’re hungry
Let a new story be read
Tonight we have no food to eat
These stories are our bread
I loved the way you wrote it!
