Ogre Battle (Live 1973)

[Intro] Ah, ah, ah, ah, ahh! [Verse 1] 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 [Chorus] Come tonight Come to the ogre sight Come to the ogre-battle-fight [Verse 2] He gives a great big cry And he can swallow up the ocean With a mighty tongue he catches flies And the palm of a hand, the incredible size One great big eye Has a focus in your direction Now the battle is on [Chorus] Come tonight Come to the ogre sight Come to the ogre-battle-fight [Instrumental Interlude 1] Ah, ah, ah, ah, ahh! [Verse 3] The ogre men are still inside The two-way mirror mountain Got to keep down right out of sight You can't see in but they can see out "Ooh, keep a lookout!" The ogre-men are coming out From the two-way mirror mountain They're running up behind and they're coming all about Can't go east 'cause you gotta go south [Instrumental Interlude 2] [Verse 4] Ogre-men are going home And then the great big fight is over Bugle blow, let trumpet cry Ogre battle lives for ever more [Outro] Oh-ho-ho You can come along You can come along Come to ogre battle
