Dastardly Dave

 Who's Dave?

I Love

Iron Maiden

Dave

This was written in stones on the road at the end of our cul de sac

I walk down here now and again but there is little other traffic and only one, unoccupied, house 

One of the landowners, who lives in town, comes down to potter on his land, otherwise it's just goats and cats.  And Dave

Maybe it was this mysterious-Dave who stole Ks helmet from his bike.  So who the hell is he?

What is happening in our quiet backwater? 

Mysterious-Dave who loves Iron maiden. Who are you?

'Where did you come from, where did you go

Where did you come from Cotton Eyed Joe'

(American Folk Song)

And what use did he have for this bed of nails that disappeared around the same time. 

 

Maybe it's...

 

Macavity the mystery cat

He's called the hidden paw

For he's the master criminal who can defy the law 

He's the bafflement of Scotland Yard, the Flying Squads despair 

For when they reach the scene of crime

Macavity's not there
