CPuff the magic Emdragon
Flived by the Csea,
And Ffrolicked in the Cautumn Ammist
in a D7land called hona-G7lee,
CLittle Jackie EmPaper
Floved that rascal CPuff,
And Fbought him strings
and Csealing Amwax and
D7Other G7fancy Cstuff. G7Oh!
CPuff the magic Emdragon
Flived by the Csea
And Ffrolicked in the Cautumn Ammist
in a D7Land called HonahG7Lee,
CPuff the magic Emdragon
Flived by the Csea
And Ffrolicked in the Cautumn Ammist
in a D7Land called G7hona-Clee.
CTogether they would Emtravel
on a Fboat with billowed Csail,
FJackie kept a Clook out Am7perched
on D7Puff's gigantic G7tail,
CNoble kings and Emprinces
would Fbow when e're they Ccame,
FPirate ships would Clow'r their Am7flag when
D7Puff roared G7out his Cname. G7Oh!
CPuff the magic Emdragon
Flived by the Csea
And Ffrolicked in the Cautumn Ammist
in a D7Land called hona-G7lee,
CPuff the magic Emdragon
Flived by the Csea
And Ffrolicked in the Cautumn Ammist
in a D7Land called G7hona-Clee.
CA Dragon lives for Emever
but Fnot so little Cboys.
FPainted wings and Cgiant Am7rings
make D7way for other G7toys,
COne grey night it Emhappened,
Jackie FPaper came no Cmore. And
FPuff that mighty Cdragon,
Am7he D7ceased his G7fearless Croar. G7
His Chead was bent in Emsorrow,
green Fscales fell like Crain,
FAnd betrayal by his Emso-called Am7friend
at D7first gave Puff real G7pain,
CSuddenly he Emrealised,
he Fdidn't need the Ckid -
Who Fwants a millstone Cround Am7their D7neck?
Much G7better to be Crid! G7
It was Ctime he did things Emhis way,
Ftime to change his Clife,
FTime to cause some Cmayhem
and Ambring folks D7lots of G7strife,
So he Cwent on the Emrampage,
and Fdid what dragons Cdo,
Causing Fterror, stealing Cgold,
Amand D7breathing G7fire Ctoo.
CPuff roasted many Emvictims
in that Fland of Hona-Clee,
FHarry Potter Cwas the Am7first,
and D7then Hermio-G7ne,
But Ceven through his Emlaughter
Puff Fstarted to be Csad,
'Cos till FJackie Paper Cwas burnt Amtoast,
he D7knew he'd G7still feel Cbad. G7
It Ctook ten years to Emfind him,
Fplaying with his new Ctoys,
Sur-Frounded by his Cfamily
of Amlots of D7girls and G7boys,
Puff Cbarbequed the Emlot of them,
some Frare and some well Cdone,
He Fjust could not re-Cmember
when Amhe'd had D7so G7much Cfun!
Then CPuff the magic Emdragon
re-Fturned to the Csea,
And Ffrolicked in the Cautumn Ammist
in that D7land called Hona-G7lee,
Now if Cever you do Emmeet him
and de-Fcide to be his Cfriend,
If FI were you I'd Cstay real Amtrue
and a-D7void a G7fiery Cend!
Now Cdon't you look at Emme like that,
as Fif I've broke your Cheart,
It Fisn't really my Cfault
if your Fdream's fallen a-Cpart,
CAnd it isn't Puff's fault Emeither,
he's Freally not to Cblame,
Re-Fmember he's a Cdragon -
Amthe D7clue is G7in his Cname!
So CPuff the magic Emdragon
now Flives by the Csea.
And Ffrolicks in the Cautumn Ammist
in a D7land called Hona-G7lee,
Yes CPuff the magic Emdragon,
still Flives by the Csea,
And Ffrolicks in the Cautumn Ammist
in a D7land called G7Hona-Clee!
