With Coconut Accompaniment
The Knights of Charmley Wood went out
with armour bright and banners high -
they jingle-jangled as they rode
beneath a wyvern sky.
Alone along the lane one knight
through eventide on foot returned -
a broken sword, his armour black
as ash, his blazon burned.
Atop Wey Tor the dragon, Georgia,
snoring, tucked up in her wings -
she dreams of home deliveries
their joyful jangle-jinglings.
with armour bright and banners high -
they jingle-jangled as they rode
beneath a wyvern sky.
Alone along the lane one knight
through eventide on foot returned -
a broken sword, his armour black
as ash, his blazon burned.
Atop Wey Tor the dragon, Georgia,
snoring, tucked up in her wings -
she dreams of home deliveries
their joyful jangle-jinglings.
