The Oracle’s house is haunted by some most unruly ghosts
With no respect for bedtime hours, especially of their hosts
Just as he gets tucked in at night he hears a ghostly breath
Which demands a glass of water or they’ll scare him half to death
And sometimes when he’s fast asleep a foot will knock his head
And he’ll wake up and see thirteen ghosts all jumping on his bed
He asked them to desist and stop and many times enjoined them
But with ghosts it’s quite impossible to beat them ’til you’ve joined them!
