Ogre Battle lyrics

Now once upon a time - an old man told me a fable

When the piper is gone - and the soup is cold on your table

And if the black crow flies to find a new destination - that is the sign

Come tonight

Come to the ogre sight

Come to the ogre-battle-fight

He gives a great big cry and he can swallow up the ocean

With a mighty tongue he catches flies - the palm of his hand is incredible

One great big eye - has a focus in your direction

Now the battle is on

Yeah yeah yeah

Come tonight

Come to the ogre sight

Come to the ogre-battle-fight

The ogre men are still inside

The two-way mirror mountain

Gotta keep down right out of sight

You can't see in but they can see out

"Keep a look out"

The ogre-men are coming out

From the two-way mirror mountain

They're running up behind you and they're coming all about

Can't go east 'cos you gotta go south

Ogre-men are going home

And the great big fight is over

Bugle blow, the trumpet cry

Ogre battle lives for ever more

You can come along

You can come along

Come to ogre battle
