| 'I have heard that some of the great parties of all times have | |
| been at my house - when I wasn't there.' | |
| Spoken: | |
| 'In days of old, when knights were bold, | |
| And journeyed from their castles, | |
| Trusty men were left behind, | |
| Knights needed not the hassles. | |
| They helped themselves to pig and peach, | |
| And drank from King's own chalice. | |
| Oh, it was a stirring sight | |
| These gypsies in the palace.' | |
| 'And some things never change. Hit it boys!' | |
| So long boss, knock 'em dead, don't worry 'bout a thing | |
| Wish that we could come along, we'd love to hear you sing | |
| Limo's here, your bags are packed, the list is by the phone | |
| Me and Snake will watch your place and treat it like our own | |
| Look at all this liquor | |
| Look at all this food | |
| It's only gonna go to waste | |
| We're not really being rude | |
| But the good stuff's in his closet, I swear he wouldn't mind | |
| Hell we'll just shoot the lock off, I do it all the time | |
| We're gypsies in the palace, He's left us here alone | |
| The Order of the Sleepless Knights will now assume the throne | |
| We ain't got no money, we ain't got no right | |
| But we're gypsies in the palace, we got it all tonight | |
| There's damsels in distress out there and we got all this beer | |
| We'll free them from their condos and bring 'em over here | |
| We'll show them his gold records | |
| We'll play his music loud | |
| We'll party just like Bubba does | |
| We'll do the old man proud | |
| We're gypsies in the palace, there ain't no wrong or right | |
| We're gypsies in the palace, and a' goin' wild tonight | |
| He's the greatest guy to work for, man he's really cool | |
| Hey Snake this party's gettin' dull, throw someone in the pool | |
| Hey let's all take our clothes off and form a conga line | |
| Watch out for that broken glass, hey Snake we need more wine | |
| We're gypsies in the palace, there ain't no wrong or right | |
| We're gypsies in the palace, and we're raisin' hell tonight | |
| Hey | |
| Oh hi there boss, what's goin' on | |
| You say you're coming WHEN? | |
| I'll send Snake out to pick you up tomorrow night at ten, OKAY! | |
| Everybody outta here, this joint is closin' down | |
| We gotta find someone to clean this up, he's comin' back to town | |
| Hi there boss we waxed your cars, we raked and mowed your lawn | |
| We couldn't find enough to do in the short time you were gone | |
| Man it sure is peaceful here, you've really got it all | |
| If you ever hit the road again, give me and Snake a call | |
| We're gypsies in the palace, he's left us here alone | |
| The Order of the Sleepless Knights will now assume the throne | |
| We ain't got no money, we ain't got no right | |
| But we're gypsies in the palace, we got it all tonight | |
| Spoken: | |
| 'Hey, Jimmy, It's Glenn' | |
| 'Glenn, How ya doin'?' | |
| 'Fine man, I'm goin' on the road. | |
| Do you know anybody who could possibly house-sit for me?' | |
| 'I got these two great guys that look after my place. | |
| Man, they're the best!' | |
