Peter,Peter
Pumpkin eater
Had a wife and couldn't keep her
So he put her in a pumpkin shell
And there he kept her very well.

Now my Question is, if he is a "pumpkin eater" why did he put her in a pumpkin shell?

I can see a parallel between the whole snow white necrophilia thing. "He had a wife and couldn't keep her." Did she die? Is the Pumpkin shell her "Coffin". what is the symbolism behind the pumpkin?
