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 [chorus]
