lyrics

Revere Me

At that moment, a light with a pewter stein
Appeared shouting, “The British are coming!”
He cackled and tipped the stein,

Groaning in an ecstasy
As he quaffed deeply, “We’ll no more be shackled,"
He bellowed in a drunken fantasy
Of being locked in a mortal battle,

“Than I’ll cut off my privates before my queen
The Queen of Love, whom Venus envies most.
For I will have need of them when we meet again,

She will come between what has been
And what will be, and when she goes
It will be the end of everything!
Oh, spare me the end of that fleshly lap!

May I never cease to drone my praising,
To press my case upon whom I may hap,
In the name of Lilica of the wet spring.”
Very near tears, he whispered, “The dew on the grass.”

The wordless jester spoke, “Man, you have some business.”
Tippling his stein again, his gullet gulping wide,
The guest said, “Revere me,” and gave no more utterance
Except to go shrieking off, the stein trailing behind.”
