THE BREMEN TOWN MUSICIANS (musical fantasy based on Grimm's Tale)

There's nothing better to behold

Than for friends to roam around the world

And close friends the hardship do not fear

All the roads they're sure to find dear.

All of them we always find so dear.

We have our calling and our path-

We bring people joy and make them laugh

And the palace domes' enticing space

Never our freedom will replace.

Oh, they never never will replace

Our carpet is the field of flowers.

Giant pines � they form the walls of ours.

Our roof � the vast blue sky up there

Our joy � one destiny to share!

Yes, to have one destiny to share.

Little bird in a pen-

In its 'home' it is trapped.

I am just like it then:

In this 'keep' I am 'kept'.

Sun makes bright things around

As for me, dark I stay.

Without princess I'm bound

to not live one more day.

Oh, pray tell, what is this?

What has happened to me?

Shot to 'pieces' my 'peace',

In these chambers, I see.

�Baddie� � is what people call us

Rumor goes that misery we bring

Give me cards and I'll assess

What shall happen to the king

Pang-bang-ding Pang-bang-ding

...what will happen to the king!

Lengthy trip the cards foretold-

Morning comes he'll up and go.

King, he has a lot of gold.

And this gold-I love it so!

Oh-say-oh Oh-say-oh

Yes, this gold-I love it so

Royal card will soon be beat

Same will happen to his guards

Job is easy, spoils are sweet

I see truth in all these cards!

Pang-bang-ding Pang-bang-ding

Morning comes, we'll rob the king.

Pang-bang-ding Pang-bang-ding

Morning comes, we'll rob the king

Cock-a-doodle-doo!

Meow!

Hee-Haw!Hee-Haw!

Bark-bark!

We're honored and

we're kept in high regard!

-In high regard! -Yes, high regard!

The king cannot exist

without his guard

The ground shakes

under our marching feet

We're always by his side and we're upbeat

Too bad that sunrise

We meet with our eyes!

If a sparrow's nearby

We'll get cannons ready!

Even if it's just a fly-

Our guns are steady!

King's travel plans

are strictly classified!

-They're classified! -Yes, classified!

And we are always

staying by his side.

We're here to protect our dear king

From anything that fate is sure to bring!

Too bad that sunrise

We meet with our eyes!

If a sparrow's nearby

We'll get cannons ready!

Even if it's just a fly-

Our guns are steady!

Oh, it's well-known � we're the hot-tempered folk

We don't take kindly... kindness or a joke!

Up! � our victims frequently the daisies push

We beat people up Love to beat them up

�and beat 'round the bush.

One-two and yikes � the guns are drawn!

We're villains, robbers, bandit spawn!

Bang-bang and you'll be gone!

You will be dead, you will be gone, be gone�

Bang-bang and you'll be gone!

You will be dead, you will be gone, be gone�

When people see us, sure enough, they yell!

�The smoking gun� for some has an unpleasant smell!

There's something hidden in our pockets too

Don't come close to us!

Don't come close to us!!!!!

Or we will slaughter you!

One-two and yikes� the guns are drawn!

We're villains, robbers, bandit spawn!

Bang-bang and you'll be gone

You will be dead, you will be gone, be gone�

Bang-bang and you'll be gone

You will be dead, you will be gone, be gone�

Oh where has this path taken me, where?

My life is not dear without princess fair

If only the glorious king would impart

The deep secret path to the princess's heart!

Since nothing and no-one could scare me away

I'd do something worthwhile for the king today!

Since nothing and no-one can scare me away.

I could do a brave deed...

for our king today.

Cock-a-doodle-doo!

Doodle-doo-ooh!

Cock-a-d...

There's nothing better to behold

Than for friends to roam around the world

And close friends the hardship do not fear

All the roads they're sure to find dear.

All of them we always find so dear...

Don't forget our calling and our path-

-We bring people joy and make them laugh!

And the palace domes' enticing space

Never our freedom will replace.

Oh, they never never will replace!
