DRACULA: A Children's Story

Coach Kody

Welcome to a story that you've heard before
But never quite like this, the old ones were a bore
Once upon a night out of nowhere a roar
The rain began to rain and the thunder a storm
On the tippy tip top of a winding road
There sat a castle where our story unfolds
A mysterious man dressed in all black
Left a baby at the door in a blanket all wrapped
Mr and Mrs. Dracul came to open the door
And surely they were surprised by what they saw

An oh so sweet little bundle of a joy
The look in their eyes as they stared at this boy
They brought him in with a hug and a smile
They would raise him with love as if he was their child
But as he grew in age things began to change
He wouldn't play in the sun and he began to grow fangs
He would sleep in his room hanging upside down
And all day long he'd wear a cape and a gown
He would flap his arms around the house like a bat
Til one day his mother had enough and she snapped

Dracula my darling it's time to go to school
But the thought of school was torture, how could she be so cruel
He begged and he pleaded momma please let me stay
They're going to make fun of my cape and my fangs
Now, now my dear it is fine
You've been alone for too long for friends it is time
To the bitty bit bottom of the unwinding road

He stared out the window they waved as he goes
This feeling so sick in the bottom of his stomach
He's never had a friend and never been in public
He arrives at the school so big he is amazed
But terrified of his first day in the 3rd grade

He makes his way to the small little class
Where he is greeted by his teacher the young Mrs. Glass
Hello, welcome, come in, say hi
Class this is Dracula he stood there so shy

Now who would like to help Dracula to a seat
From the back of the class a small voice me me
It belonged to a boy named Abraham Van Helsing
An excellent student overachiever always helping

They sat next to each other and quickly became friends
I wish I could say that this is where our story ends
But out the corner of his eye Dracula spots a girl
She turns around gives a smile gives her hair a twirl

Van Helsing Van Helsing who is that girl
Who Where
Her There
With the long black hair

Oh that's just Mina
Van Helsing replied
Why you like her or something
Dracula denied

It's time for Recess class
Dracula was surprised by the sound of the bell
And what is this recess for he could not tell
Van Helsing yelled out as he stood by the door
Dracula you coming we're going to play explore
Dracula unsure went to the window to see
The sun was shining bright he knew it couldn't be
He told Van Helsing that he'd meet him outside
But he knew deep down that that was a lie

He looked out the window as children laugh and play
Then over by the slide something to his dismay
It was Mina and Van Helsing going down the slide
Hand in hand together having a good time
This made Dracula very very angry

His fangs grew longer and his hands began shaking
His skin more pale
His widows peak prevailed

Eghhhughh

Then poof just like that
Dracula turned into a bat

He found an open window and flew outside
The playground he began to terrorize
All the children laughing quickly became screams

And that's when Dracula woke up from his dream
And there his mother stood with a great big smile
Wake up it's time for your first day of school my child
