Grimmly Speaking Theme Song lyrics:
This is Grimmly Speaking.
We are right in keeping
with the Grimm Tales
which never fail
to keep you up from sleeping.
Twisted and demented,
these stories are all scented
with smells so foul
they’ll make you howl —
Please stop! I’m uncontented!
They’ll make you weep.
They are so sweet
and totally fermented.
Strange and incandescent,
rude and most unpleasant,
silly and unfair,
if they weren’t then who would care?
This is Grimmly Speaking.
We are right in keeping
with the Grimm Tales
which never fail
to keep you up from sleeping.
Twisted and demented,
these stories are all scented
with smells so foul
they’ll make you howl —
Please stop! I’m uncontented!
They’ll make you weep.
They are so sweet
and totally fermented.
