• Lords and ladies,
    Please give me your ear!
    I have a story
    That you must hear.

    On a hot day
    In marry May,
    I came across a sight most queer,
    Which made me shout
    Oh dear!
    It was a man nailed to a tree
    Who sang,
    Fa da la de le!
    As he did hang.

    What is this I see,
    Said he,
    Standing before me?
    Just a humble bard,
    Said I,
    And may I ask
    Who hung you here to die?

    Fa da la de le!
    Sang he.
    It was the king,
    He who made me toil
    Like a worm digging in the soil!
    Fa da la de di!
    But not sad am I.
    For this very day
    The king did die!
    Fa da la de dine!
    I feel fine
    Cause I poisioned his wine!

    So I did ask,
    So is that why I find thee
    Nailed to a tree?
    NO!
    He screamed
    I'm here because that stupid git
    Thought that the poision was pee
    Then with a last
    Fa da la de le
    His soul left his body.

    Now my good gentles
    I leave you with this advice...
    Don't drink the wine
    And you'll all be fine!
