The jester laughs 
The council meets 
The ladies choose their champions  [bad word] join 
At Arthur's court 

They tell their tales 
Of glorious feats 
Of dragons slain and battles won 
The night's still young 
At Arthur's court 

Don't they know 
That this feast isn't meant to last forever 
Time will show 
Who'll betray and who'll serve their king and lord 
Still the jester laughs at Arthur's Court 

Now every year 
They take their seat 
In loyalty and honour both 
They swear their oath 
At Arthur's court 

They make a strange 
Heroic breed 
With damsels saved and monsters killed 
Their cups are filled 
At Arthur's court 

Don't they know 
That this feast isn't meant to last forever 
Time will show 
Who'll betray and who'll serve their king and lord 
Still the jester laughs at Arthur's Court
