《Sir Greenbaum’s Madrigal》歌词

[00:00:00] Sir Greenbaum's Madrigal - Allan Sherman

[00:00:15] In Sherwood Forest

[00:00:19] There dwelt a knight

[00:00:21] Who was known

[00:00:23] As the righteous Sir Greenbaum

[00:00:40] And many dragons

[00:00:43] Had felt the might

[00:00:46] Of the smite

[00:00:48] Of the righteous Sir Greenbaum

[00:00:53] I chanced upon him one morn

[00:00:59] When he'd recently rescued a maiden fair

[00:01:06] Why why art thou so forlorn

[00:01:12] Sir Greenbaum is thy heart heavy laden

[00:01:28] Said he "Forsooth

[00:01:31] 'Tis a sorry plight

[00:01:34] That engendered my attitude bluish"

[00:01:42] Said he "I don't wanna be a knight

[00:01:48] That's no job for a boy who is Jewish"

[00:02:01] All day with the mighty sword

[00:02:03] And the mighty steed and the mighty lance

[00:02:06] All day with that heavy shield

[00:02:09] And a pair of aluminum pants

[00:02:11] All day with the slaying and slewing

[00:02:14] And smiting and smoting like Robin Hood

[00:02:17] Oh wouldst I could kick the habit

[00:02:21] And give up smoting for good

[00:02:32] And so he said to the other knights

[00:02:38] "You may have my possessions and my goods

[00:02:45] For I am moving to Shaker Heights

[00:02:51] Where I've got some connections in dry goods

[00:02:59] Farewell to the dragon's paw

[00:03:04] And the other swashbuckling games and sports

[00:03:11] I'll work for my father in law

[00:03:17] When I marry Miss Guinevere Schwartz"
