Jack in the Box

There goes little jack
putting makeup on his face
He goes into the box
Without letting those colors get erased

He waits there in silence
While the lever is being cranked
As the cheerful melody plays
He was being yanked

He popped out of the coffer
Dressed up like a clown
Making young ones smile
And making him frown

The poor little boy
Was forbidden to show
The things he was hiding
That nobody knows
