the green eyed dragon - ted egan lyrics
[intro]
girls and boys
if either your mum or your dad frightens easily
hold their hand very tight for this song
[verse 1]
once upon a time there was a fair princess
most beautiful and charming
her father, the king, was a wicked old thing
with manners most alarming
and always on the front door mat
a most ferocious dragon sat
made such an awful shrieking noise
so all you little girls and boys
[chorus]
beware, take care
of the green eyed dragon with the thirteen tails
he’ll feed, with greed
on little boys, puppy dogs, and big fat snails
then off to his lair each child he’ll drag
and each of his thirteen tails he’ll wag
beware, take care
and creep off on tiptoes
and hurry up the stairs
and say your prayers
and duck your heads, your pretty curly heads
beneath the clothes, the clothes, the clothes
[verse 2]
that dragon he lived for years and years
but he never grew much thinner
for lunch, he’d try a policeman pie
or roast ten beasts for dinner
one brave man went round with an axe
and tried to collect his income tax
that dragon he smiled with fiendish glee
and quietly murmured “r.i.p.”
[chorus]
beware, take care
of the green eyed dragon with the thirteen tails
he’ll feed, with greed
on little boys, puppy dogs, and big fat snails
then off to his lair each child he’ll drag
and each of his thirteen tails he’ll wag
beware, take care
and creep off on tiptoes
and hurry up the stairs
and say your prayers
and duck your heads, your pretty curly heads
beneath the clothes, the clothes, the clothes
[verse 3]
the dragon went down to the kitchen one day
where the fair princess was baking
he ate, by mistake, some rich plum cake
that the fair princess was making
that homemade cake, he could not digest
he moaned and he groaned, and at last went west
and now his ghost, with bloodshot eyes
at midnight clangs his chains and cries
[chorus]
beware, take care
of the green eyed dragon with the thirteen tails
he’ll feed, with greed
on little boys, puppy dogs, and big fat snails
then off to his lair each child he’ll drag
and each of his thirteen tails he’ll wag
beware, take care
and creep off on tiptoes
and hurry up the stairs
and say your prayers
and duck your heads, your pretty curly heads
beneath the clothes, the clothes, the clothes
aaaagh!
