Brave Sir Robin
From the film "Monty Python And The Holy Grail"
Lyrics by Eric Idle
Music by Neil Innes
--------------------------------------------------
(Part One)
Bravely bold Sir Robin rode forth from Camelot.
He was not afraid to die, o brave Sir Robin.
He was not at all afraid to be killed in nasty ways,
Brave, brave, brave, brave Sir Robin.
He was not in the least bit scared to be mashed into a pulp,
Or to have his eyes gouged out and his elbows broken,
To have his kneecaps split and his body burned away,
And his limbs all hacked and mangled, brave Sir Robin...
His head smashed in and his heart cut out,
And his liver removed and his bowels unplugged,
And his nostrils raped and his bottom burnt off,
and his penis...
(Part Two)
He is brave Sir Robin,
Brave Sir Robin who...
To fight and...
(Part Three)
Brave Sir Robin ran away
Bravely, ran away... away...
When danger reared its ugly head,
He bravely turned his tail and fled.
Yes, brave Sitr Robin turned about
And gallantly he chicken out.
Bravely taking to his feet,
He beat a very brave retreat...
Bravest of the brave, Sir Robin.
