The princess who livedIn the purple tower
Had been there twelve yearsTen days and one hour.
Winds wailed and waves crashedOn the tower’s dark stoneAnd the princess felt sadAnd trapped and alone.
Thick cobwebs coveredThe princess’s locked roomA big, fat, green spiderSat guarding the gloom.

The witch and the spiderKnew each other wellThey whispered all nightOf a terrible spell.
