Sir David and the Beasts Lyrics

Now this is a tale of great courage

But also of great woe

The tale of the knight of Sir David

Was not a story you'd know

He was a gallant man, not foolhardy

In any sense of the word

He took on the challenge to defeat the beasts

That were ruling over the world

These beasts

Were so small and wild

They tried to eat him all up

Sir David wasn't fooled by their smiles

These beasts

Were not merely a slay

Because they may claim his life

He must carefully find a way

Sir David knew the tale of the mighty beasts

Long before he arrived at their cave

If the beasts were defeated at all

The knight would never fight again

Well he came to their lair and saw the beasts

This mighty challenge was not fair

He knew this could well be the last slay he gets

As the curse was was evidently there

These beasts

Were so small and wild

They tried to eat him all up

Sir David wasn't fooled by their smiles

These beasts

Were not merely a slay

Because their complex feminine maternal needs

He couldn't find a way

Well this story has a happy ending

But that depends who you are

Sir David managed to slay the beasts

But will have to slay no more

The beasts were challenge to far, Sir David had

Bitten off more than he could chew

Because his lance was now a shriveled mess

They were the last beasts he would do

These beasts

Were so small and slight

They tried to eat him all up

Sir David split them in twain with all of his might

These beasts

Were not merely a slay

Because they claimed Sir David's life

It was the ultimate price to pay
