| [00:18.17] |
The Angel of the Holy Grail saw Galahad come riding, |
| [00:21.87] |
So he took the Holy Grail off the shelf. |
| [00:24.50] |
|
| [00:26.12] |
And inside the Holy Chapel made for Holy Grail hiding, |
| [00:29.86] |
The Angel could be seen to smile to himself. |
| [00:33.02] |
|
| [00:34.54] |
If you're the Great Sir Galahad from now on, |
| [00:37.39] |
said the Angel, |
| [00:38.26] |
May all angels call me blessed of my race. |
| [00:41.31] |
|
| [00:42.48] |
If you're not the Great Sir Galahad I warn you, |
| [00:45.56] |
keep on riding, |
| [00:46.53] |
And if you are I pray you'll let me see your face. |
| [00:49.43] |
|
| [00:50.98] |
Galahad removed his helmet, said, |
| [00:53.11] |
Good Angel, look upon me, |
| [00:55.07] |
Fear not for I bring tidings of great joy. |
| [00:57.75] |
|
| [00:59.23] |
For long years the Grail you've guarded |
| [01:01.19] |
now you get to let me drink it, |
| [01:03.08] |
How happy must be angels thus employed. |
| [01:06.13] |
|
| [01:07.52] |
All the favours that you shower upon me, |
| [01:10.15] |
a simple angel, |
| [01:11.31] |
Said the Angel, |
| [01:12.29] |
Your benevolence abounds. |
| [01:14.18] |
|
| [01:15.88] |
Take your boots off, Great Sir Galahad; |
| [01:17.75] |
for by your astounding beauty |
| [01:19.56] |
Whatever ground you stand on turns to holy ground. |
| [01:22.25] |
|
| [01:24.08] |
Galahad took off his boots |
| [01:26.09] |
and he watched the ground quite closely |
| [01:28.20] |
And the Angel smiled to himself again. |
| [01:30.50] |
|
| [01:32.29] |
He said, I can't believe I'm asking, |
| [01:34.02] |
but Sir Galahad please tell me |
| [01:36.10] |
What is it that makes you want to go to Heaven? |
| [01:39.08] |
|
| [01:40.53] |
In Heaven there's no lamb chops, |
| [01:42.66] |
Queen Guineveres for hand jobs, |
| [01:44.61] |
Marijuana, Kenny Rogers or ecstasy. |
| [01:47.48] |
|
| [01:48.87] |
No pillaging, no rape, |
| [01:50.59] |
perhaps you've come by some mistake to me, |
| [01:52.85] |
This seems more error than knight errantry. |
| [01:55.83] |
|
| [02:30.36] |
Now what about the stable boys, |
| [02:32.30] |
I know you think they're handsome, |
| [02:34.17] |
And some of them they think you're awful handsome too. |
| [02:36.73] |
|
| [02:38.66] |
And sitting up in Heaven you'll still think about them often, |
| [02:42.21] |
When you're an angel thinking's all that you can do. |
| [02:45.13] |
|
| [02:46.88] |
At this Sir Galahad got angry, |
| [02:49.09] |
Angel, he said, don't you tempt me, |
| [02:51.22] |
I wish to go to Heaven and not to Hell. |
| [02:53.51] |
|
| [02:55.00] |
So when stable boys look lonesome, |
| [02:57.04] |
when the women call me handsome, |
| [02:58.98] |
I'll hold my virtue very firmly by myself. |
| [03:01.89] |
|
| [03:02.89] |
I guarantee you'll hold it often, |
| [03:05.22] |
said the Angel, oh one more thing |
| [03:07.18] |
Before you drink the cup please take your armour off. |
| [03:09.99] |
|
| [03:11.65] |
I gotta carry you to heaven |
| [03:13.43] |
and despite what you'd imagine |
| [03:15.46] |
I have trouble bearing heavy things aloft. |
| [03:18.33] |
|
| [03:36.74] |
Galahad stood naked and a pile of his armor, |
| [03:40.31] |
His boots and helmet scattered all around. |
| [03:43.20] |
|
| [03:44.67] |
His perfect lips they sipped the Grail, |
| [03:46.94] |
his perfect heart commenced to fail, |
| [03:48.91] |
His perfect body fell upon the ground. |
| [03:51.34] |
|
| [03:53.00] |
The Angel smoked a cigarette, |
| [03:55.10] |
when he was sure Galahad was dead |
| [03:57.23] |
He picked all of his clothes up off the floor. |
| [03:59.81] |
|
| [04:01.28] |
Then I put on his boots and armor, |
| [04:03.45] |
I laid his body on the altar, |
| [04:05.44] |
Put his helmet on then I headed for the door. |
| [04:08.11] |
|
