[00:02.78] They shot him down
[00:04.36]
[00:06.03] They shot him down
[00:07.71]
[00:09.59] They thought he was a monster
[00:12.01]
[00:13.77] But he was the king
[00:15.53]
[00:17.38] They came to his island
[00:19.26]
[00:21.11] And they brought her with them
[00:24.59] They wanted to get his picture
[00:26.65]
[00:27.57] But they were surprised by his enormous size
[00:30.31]
[00:33.70] And when he saw the woman
[00:35.70]
[00:36.66] He took her without question
[00:39.12]
[00:40.99] Because after all
[00:44.38] He was the king
[00:46.18]
[00:47.91] And he loved the woman
[00:51.25] He loved the way she looked
[00:53.61]
[00:54.97] But she wouldn’t stop
[00:57.58]
[00:58.49] Her screaming
[01:00.62]
[01:02.20] But he loved the woman
[01:04.02]
[01:04.95] And he fought a Tyrannosaurus Rex
[01:07.26]
[01:09.05] It was a bloody battle
[01:10.90]
[01:11.91] But he fought it for his woman
[01:14.18]
[01:15.88] And he climbed up a mountain
[01:18.05]
[01:18.72] And he looked around
[01:21.86]
[01:23.13] Some kind of forest
[01:24.76]
[01:25.73] With all those dinosaurs
[01:27.26]
[01:28.95] And he stripped his woman
[01:31.66]
[01:32.73] He stripped her bare
[01:34.89]
[01:36.66] But there was a pterodactyl
[01:38.30]
[01:40.43] There
[01:41.33]
[01:42.05] And then a hero
[01:43.79]
[01:45.36] Came and took his woman
[01:47.40]
[01:49.01] And they fell off the mountain
[01:50.97]
[01:52.54] Into some water
[01:54.38]
[01:55.91] And then later
[01:57.66]
[01:58.83] He came looking for his woman
[02:00.97]
[02:02.25] But they were waiting
[02:03.88]
[02:05.25] And they threw a bomb
[02:07.01]
[02:08.61] And they tied him
[02:11.00]
[02:12.25] And they took him across the ocean
[02:14.85]
[02:16.28] And they chained him
[02:18.48]
[02:19.14] And put him in the show
[02:23.63] But when he saw his woman
[02:25.66]
[02:27.02] He broke loose
[02:30.02] And everyone fled in terror
[02:33.17]
[02:34.16] And he was looking for her
[02:36.71]
[02:37.36] And he overturned the train
[02:39.77]
[02:41.44] He was looking in the street
[02:43.41]
[02:44.28] And then he found her in her apartment
[02:48.13]
[02:49.07] And He climbed up the Empire State building
[02:51.86]
[02:52.61] It was like a phallic Symbol
[02:55.36]
[02:55.97] And he took his woman
[02:58.39]
[02:59.11] To the top of that towering temple
[03:01.69]
[03:02.72] And he climbed up and looked around
[03:07.42] Some kind of city
[03:09.02]
[03:10.16] With all those skyscrapers
[03:12.15]
[03:13.49] And all the cars
[03:16.09]
[03:17.46] Just him and his screaming woman
[03:19.90]
[03:20.96] They were finally alone
[03:22.55]
[03:24.94] He loved his woman
[03:26.80]
[03:28.00] You could see it in his eyes
[03:30.88]
[03:31.88] His great big eyes
[03:33.80]
[03:35.72] He loved his woman
[03:37.44]
[03:38.58] From the moment he saw her
[03:41.58]
[03:42.16] He was all choked up inside
[03:44.32]
[03:46.38] But when the airplanes came
[03:48.92]
[03:49.83] He was soon to die
[03:51.69]
[03:53.33] But he hung on long enough to set his woman down
[03:56.85]
[03:57.94] And make sure
[03:59.91]
[04:01.53] She was safe
[04:02.92]
[04:04.55] And as the bullets pierced
[04:07.47]
[04:08.24] He looked at her so sincere
[04:10.51]
[04:12.00] Before he fell
[04:13.76]
[04:15.13] Because he loved his woman
[04:18.25]
[04:20.02] They shot him down
[04:21.97]
[04:23.82] They shot him down
[04:25.42]
[04:27.44] They thought he was a monster
[04:29.45]
[04:31.10] But he was the king
[04:34.42] Who killed the monkey
[04:36.70]
[04:38.38] Who killed the monkey
[04:39.98]
[04:41.79] ‘Twas beauty
[04:43.54]
[04:45.04] That killed the beast
[04:48.17] And Willis O’Brien died
[04:52.14] A tragic death
[04:53.52]
[04:55.33] There wasn’t much
[04:57.57]
[04:58.79] That he had left
[05:00.41]
[05:01.72] And Ray Harryhousen said
[05:04.42]
[05:05.61] That when Willis died
[05:07.29]
[05:08.88] That’s when the king
[05:11.51]
[05:12.23] Was really dead
[05:14.52]
[05:15.98] They shot him down
[05:17.60]
[05:19.76] They shot him down
[05:21.36]
[05:23.32] They thought he was a monster
[05:25.36]
[05:26.85] But he was the king
[05:28.71]
[05:30.77] But he was the king
[05:32.38]
[05:34.32] But he was the king
[05:36.08]
[05:38.42] But he was the king
[05:40.47]
