The old Troll sat beneath the bridge | |
And waited out the hours | |
He dreamed of pretty princesses | |
And white and lofty towers | |
He longed to eat the sweetest treat | |
And one he’d never tasted | |
A maiden fair beyond compare | |
Spiced and nicely basted | |
A maiden dear was walking near | |
Out in the nighttime chilling | |
This lovely lass, she held no fear | |
Of trolls and all their killing | |
A fairer maid he’d never seen | |
Far too fair for grilling | |
instead he thought to ask a dance | |
To see if she were willing | |
A yimmering, a yammering | |
A beating and a clamoring | |
So hard his heart was hammering | |
He feared for his own life | |
A yimmering, a yammering | |
While stammering and glamoring | |
He found her so enamoring | |
He never saw the knife | |
The knife? The knife. The knife! | |
He never saw the knife! | |
For her bodice so revealing | |
It sent his head a reeling | |
her hem so high, unto her thigh | |
It caused an eerie feeling | |
One that Troll was most unsure of | |
He’d never known before | |
He should be done with his first course | |
And heading back for more | |
For Troll had never been in love | |
What was Troll thinking of | |
He’d never eat this dainty girl | |
As pretty as a dove | |
So they danced the night away | |
And soon the break of day | |
Was coming fast when then our lass | |
Decided not to stay | |
A yimmering, a yammering | |
A beating and a clamoring | |
So hard his heart was hammering | |
He feared for his own life | |
A yimmering, a yammering | |
While stammering and glamoring | |
He found her so enamoring | |
He never saw the knife | |
The knife? The knife. The knife! | |
He never saw the knife! | |
She’d had enough of making bluff | |
The Troll would soon grow wary | |
Or even worse, and such a curse | |
He’d ask for her to marry | |
And so her knife was brought to bear | |
She snuck up form behind | |
But Trolls are thick and knives don’t stick | |
As she was soon to find | |
The cock did crow, the sun did glow | |
A curse upon his kind | |
He held her tight in meaty arms | |
For stone was sure to bind | |
And to her shock he turned to rock | |
As daybreak fell anew | |
She screamed and fought to free herself | |
Which she was not to do | |
A yimmering, a yammering | |
A beating and a clamoring | |
So hard his heart was hammering | |
He feared for his own life | |
A yimmering, a yammering | |
While stammering and glamoring | |
He found her so enamoring | |
He never saw the knife | |
The knife? The knife. The knife! | |
He never saw the knife! | |
A statue stands in yonder wood | |
Though not a statue really | |
The summer sun shines over it | |
The winter wind blows chilling | |
Beneath its shadow lying there | |
A knife and bits of bone | |
Thus Troll and lady pass the years | |
Together yet alone | |
A yimmering, a yammering | |
A beating and a clamoring | |
So hard his heart was hammering | |
He feared for his own life | |
A yimmering, a yammering | |
While stammering and glamoring | |
He found her so enamoring | |
He never saw the knife | |
The knife? The knife. The knife! | |
He never saw the knife! |
The old Troll sat beneath the bridge | |
