With I’s half shut
They ran amok
The king was on his way.
He’d be here any day!
The walls weren’t high enough.
Their gold wouldn’t meet their bluff.
We love you!
They would say.
And maybe king would slay
Only half of them
They would gladly bend
A knee or ear
With king right here
They’d start back at the end again.
Get your tickets ready please!
Oh uh, hello there. How you doing?
Listen, my name is Barry and I'm the Conductor on this train so if you need anything, you just ask me, okay?
The bathrooms are right over there and please, pick up after yourself on account of I clean the place, too.
And uh, seeing as you're not from around here I'll just tell you straight out - although every story you might hear on this train is true, some stories are "truer" than others, if you can read between the rails...
Anyway, thanks for stopping by and, y'all come back now, y'hear?
Have a grand day, friend.
