Molly Grace
It all happened over 100 years ago
Young Molly Grace did not know
What was to happen on that fateful night
And why she would refuse to fight
In that dark alley, in 1876
Molly Grace could hear the tocks and the ticks
As darkness grew closer she knew for a start
Her family would begin to grow apart
She started to suddenly shake and shiver
But it wasn't the cold that made her quiver
Those young lads of about 16 or more
Enjoyed using the alley to hunt down the poor
Molly Grace got onto her already scraped knees
Realised eventually her weak body would freeze
So she lay there, too scared to move
All the evil thoughts in her head she tried to remove
Eventually after what seemed like hours
Two of the boys jumped off the nearby towers
They came to their side, introduced them to her
And Thomas and James began to confer
Little Molly Grace could not hear them
And realised they were ripping the fraying hem
Of her favourite dress she was given by her nan
Suddenly, the alleyway started to spin
And Molly Grace felt a stinging in her ribs
Started to wish she hadn't told those fibs
That where she was going would be safe
And she wouldn't be seen as a little waif
After seconds she couldn't think
Molly Grace's life was on the brink
Suddenly, her young mind just went blank
Thomas and James don't need to be thanked
That next morning much to her parent's dismay
Molly Grace's face appeared a pale grey
The police took her in and sent word around
That Molly Grace had been surely found
Then on Christmas night the doctors found
The cause of why Molly Grace was to be crowned
"I wasn't talented enough" cut into her body
Thomas and James had attempted to disembody
So now after that horrible night in the alley
Queen Molly Grace of this awful "Death Valley"
Has witnessed too much for a young eight year old
And because of such a brutal murder this is to be retold
