Ske-ling-tons

The skeleton's teeth are grisly green
with gums that disappear
Don't look at him directly
if he sees you he may sneer

When a spider climbs his ankle
his toe bones twitch and chinkle
for a skeleton's skin is very smooth
and completely free of wrinkles

The skeleton has no nose
so his sense of smell is poor
but he wipes it with his hanky
and then throws it on the floor

Oh, naughty skeleton
you're such a litter lout
you ought to pick that up
of that there is no doubt
 
But skeletons are deaf
poor skellie has no ears
so even if you shout
alas, he cannot hear
