Oh persnickety wickedly witch
Who tried to stave off dandruff itch
Used a cat to cushion her head
And fell with a grunt out of her bed
Oh persnickety wickedly witch
Of flake and flurry scalp twitch
Sought bats to beat the snow away
But wings clapped her hair to grey
Oh persnickety wickedly witch
Heard the cure from a snitchy-snitch
On her crown she let perch an owl
That pecked her head and made her howl!
Oh persnickety wickedly witch
Who tried to stave off dandruff itch
Inhaled the dust with every breath
And promptly sneezed herself to death.
