A strange girl Amanda Craig
Odd and distracted and wild eyed
With stories of friends she had made
Who lived in the woods
And whenever she could
She would run off to play with
Throughout all the day
Weep not my child, for who
One night's dance, a life will see you through
A strange girl Amanda
That mark on her hand
And when taunted she'd
Just glide oblivious by
But some had decided
In scorn and despisement
Her torment would taste good
And thus by and by
The bullies they badgered and bothered and beat her
'til one Monday when they no longer went near
They came to school with an odd look of strange terror
Avoided her, trembled, even cried a few tears
