There once was an old man who loved power and glory | |
But in his long life he just had never won | |
So he had a dream, let us call it obsession | |
To stand in the middle, be admired by everyone | |
He saw his one chance when rumors were spreading | |
A dragon arrived in the outskirts of the town | |
He thought if someone whould challenge the beast | |
He would live forever even if he died by hunting it down | |
[chorus:] | |
He wants to fight the dragon, he wants to kill the beast | |
He wants to fight the dragon, he wants to kill the beast | |
And drawing his longsword with it′s edges blazing | |
He rode to the lair to shed thick dragon blood | |
He daydreamed that he would return home as a hero | |
But his horse stumbled and he landed headlong in the mud | |
[chorus] | |
As he lay there sobbing the dragon came along | |
And saw the poor old man, oh, there had something to be done | |
He invited the man to his cave where they drank tea | |
And they became the best friends in the world of dragon and man | |
