There's a mystery object in our town
It's causing quite a to-do
Even the experts are baffled
We've only got one clue...
Handmade
It was handmade
A friend of a friend knew a man whose boss
said he found it at a disused arcade
The owner of the crystal shop
said that she was convinced
that it must have belonged to a mermaid - and washed up on the promenade
Handmade
It was handmade
Was it from a ritual for the people of the Everglades
Or something you 'd be wearing if invited to a masquerade?
A retired colonel told me
that he thought it might be weapons grade
Someone was so terrified they hid behind a barricade
Handmade
It was handmade
Is it a support for when you have a broken shoulder blade?
Although there is the possibility it was once used by a dairymaid
I remember something like it
from when I used to go to church parade
(I don't tell everyone I meet but I was in the Boys Brigade)
Handmade
It was handmade
If we find out what it is we'll have to organise a cavalcade
And if there's any money left we'll all have toast and marmalade!
