Story Behind the Song
..this melodic fable harkens back to the era when the king's word was law, yet mirth may prevail over a usurped throne..
Lyrics
Once a knight on a horse, with a book to mark his course,
turned to the page that seemed to have all the answers.
The page was twenty-four, he read to the knight once more,
"There will be wine and song, and you will find dancers.
There will be stories of gold and necromancers,
and you will find answers."
The castle walls will fall,
as the herald, page and raconteur sing,
"Long live the King!!!"
Once a king on a throne, called on his megaphone,
and asked of the knight on the day of his arrival,
"Tell me stories of gold, and of survival.
And did you find answers?"
The castle walls will fall,
as the herald, page and raconteur sing,
"Long live the King!!!"
Little Lester, court jester was the rightful heir.
He saw the dancers become the Army of the Knight.
He saw the knight give up his life to claim the throne.
Now Little Lester is the King, and all his subjects sing,
"Long live the King!!!"
