The Jester (Live in Hatfield)

[Spoken:]

"Err, simmer down, ladies and gentlemen, simmer down, hey

You're acting rather irresponsibly right now, damn you all"

[Verse 1: Rou Reynolds]

Hold your horses, steady now

'Cos we're floating precariously and therefore furthermore frivolously

On tectonic plates

Everything we stand on and everything we stand for

Is rather unstable right now

So I think I'll kill some time and have you done medium rare

But I think I'll tease my palate with some crudités, just to prepare

You see, we've had a joker in the pack now for quite some time

So I reckon it's just about time we roast this swine

[Verse 2: Rou Reynolds]

Ahhrgh! This is a crock of shit I refuse to be fed!

So knuckle down and use your head

Can it sunshine, bottle it up you ponce

Then knock me up a dish with some vol-au-vents

Now I think we should take a leaf from the Romans' book (Throw it up, throw it up)

Now I think we should take a leaf from the Romans' book (Throw it up, throw it up)

Let's throw it up and start again

Let's throw it up and start again

[Drop: Rou Reynolds]

Nicely does it now

Steady

Hold

Hold - (target locked)

Cop a load of this one

Oh, yeah

[Outro: Rou Reynolds]

Ah, that was great, my compliments to the chef, I'm very satisfied

So I'll be sure to dine here again, fine cuisine

The stuffed cheeks were very agreeable

All in all, a splendid spread
