Her skin is white cloth
and she's all sewn apart
and she has many colored pins
sticking out of her heart.
She has a set
of hypno-disk eyes
the ones that she uses
to hypnotize guys.
She has many different zombies
who are deeply in her trance.
She even has a zombie
who was originally from France.
But she knows she has a curse on her,
a curse she cannot win.
For if someone gets
too close to her,
the pins stick farther in.
