Old King Niáll

I feel there are not enough songs in the kingdom that people can sing along to without needing the lyrics written down. I offer the following as one option.

October 2014

Old King Niáll had a realm
E-I-E-I-O
And in that realm he had some knights
E-I-E-I-O
With a thump-thump here, a thump-thump there,
Here a thump, there a thump, everywhere a thump-thump
Old King Niáll had a realm
E-I-E-I-O

And in that realm he had some laurels…
With a stitch-stitch here…

… some pelicans…
… a scrub-scrub here…

… some scribes…
… a paint-paint here…

… some stewards…
… a rush-rush here…

… some bards…
… a bellow-bellow here…

… some choristers…
… a warble-warble here…

… some archers…
… a twang-thock here…

… some fencers…
… a flounce-jab here…

… some wannabes…
… a whinge-whine here…

… some heralds…
… a wiffle woffle here, a wiffle woffle there
Here a wiffle, there a woffle
Everywhere a FIVE MINUTES!

… some marshals…
… a lay on here…

… a populace…
… a HIP HIP! here, a HIP HIP! there
Here a HIP! There a HIP!
Everywhere HUZZAH!
