The cannibai KIM.


The fates are kind to the Cannibal king
And life to him is real soft thing.
He worries not over the change in style,
For his main attire is winning smile.
He's the sovereign of a sun-kdssed land
Where weather is always simply grand.
He owes no bill for a new spring suit
And he wears a string for robe de
mutt.
His wives don't banker for new spring
hats.
md clothes cause him no domestic

He doesn't spend all he makes on COAL
And prices high don't disturb his soul.

For tourists will always happen along.

OF the reigning king of the Cannibal
