This is a poem from the Other Mother's point of view

Other Mother Song

I brought to this world,

Did everything I could,

Made you happy and laugh,

Like real mothers should.

I gave you lots of chicken,

And many other foods,

I gave you lots of toys,

That were waiting in your room.

I made an entire garden for you,

My dear, Coraline,

I created all these things for you,

Just to make you mine.

Oh, my twitchy witchy girl,

Why did you ever run away?

I was caring and loving and nice,

Just to make you stay,

If you stay with me,

I could be your mother,

We'd be a perfect family,

Happy. Forever.

Maybe you'll return to me,

So please don't cry,

All you have to do is,

Put on the button eyes.
