But then, one winter's night,An old beggar woman came to the castle and offered him a single jewelIn return for shelter from the bitter cold. Freaked out by her Crypt Keeper-like demeanorThe nobleman frowned at the gift,a nd turned the old woman away.But she warned him not to be deceived by first impressions for even the strangest person could turn out to be nice. And when he dismissed her again,The old woman's weirdness melted awayTo reveal an elegant Enchantress.The nobleman tried to apologize, but it was too late, For she had seen that there was no trust in his heart. And as punishment,She transformed him into a 6'2 300lb werejohncandy. And placed a powerful spell on the castle,And all who lived there.Shocked of his John Candy-like form the werejohncandy concealed himself inside his castle,with a magic mirror as his only window to the outside world.The jewel she had offered,was truly an enchanted jewel Which would shine for many years. If he could learn to trust another,And earn her trust in returnBy the time the jewel turned gold,Then the spell would be broken.If not, he would be doomed to remain a werejohncandy.For all time.As the years passed,He fell into despair, and lost all hope,For who could ever learn to love...a werejohncandy?
