No king, no emperor, not a czar!
A not-so-straightforward manikin am I,
- a poltergeist, a goblin, a dwarf with a strange name to go by!
Sheepshanks, Cruickshanks, Spindleshanks?
Oh would you go beyond these pranks?
Not-so-simple-as-a-Conrad,
My name could never be a part of a fad -
If you fail to guess my name for goodness sake!
I shall brew, I shall bake, a royal child I shall take.
Your wasted efforts do make me grin,
For my name is nothing but... (Rumpelstiltskin)
