I Saw a Show on Telly Once
Stephin Merritt
[Coraline]
I saw a show on telly once
How Russians go on tiger hunts
They make ingenious tiger traps
From one thin skin, meant to collapse
Stretched on a hole they've dug or found
To see that tigers come around
They bait the trap with...tiger bait
And then they hide, and lie in wait
Soon tigers come to call, and leap
And fall into a deep, deep sleep
