Gypsies in the Palace

«In days of old, when knights were bold
And journeyed from their castles
Trusty men were left behind
Knights needed not the hassles
They helped themselves to pig and peach
And drank from King’s own chalice
Oh, it was a stirring sight
These gypsies in the palace.»
«And some things never change.
Hit it boys!»
So long boss, knock 'em dead, don’t worry 'bout a thing
Wish that we could come along, we’d love to hear you sing
Limo’s here, your bags are packed, the list is by the phone
Me and Snake will watch your place and treat it like our own
Look at all this liquor
Look at all this food
It’s only gonna go to waste
We’re not really being rude
But the good stuff’s in his closet, I swear he wouldn’t mind
Hell we’ll just shoot the lock off, I do it all the time
We’re gypsies in the palace, He’s left us here alone
The Order of the Sleepless Knights will now assume the throne
We ain’t got no money, we ain’t got no right
But we’re gypsies in the palace, we got it all tonight
There’s damsels in distress out there and we got all this beer
We’ll free them from their condos and bring 'em over here
We’ll show them his gold records
We’ll play his music loud
We’ll party just like Bubba does
We’ll do the old man proud
We’re gypsies in the palace, there ain’t no wrong or right
We’re gypsies in the palace, and a' goin' wild tonight
He’s the greatest guy to work for, man he’s really cool
Hey Snake this party’s gettin' dull, throw someone in the pool
Hey let’s all take our clothes off and form a conga line
Watch out for that broken glass, hey Snake we need more wine
We’re gypsies in the palace, there ain’t no wrong or right
We’re gypsies in the palace, and we’re raisin' hell tonight
Hey
Oh hi there boss, what’s goin' on
You say you’re coming WHEN?
I’ll send Snake out to pick you up tomorrow night at ten, OKAY!
Everybody outta here, this joint is closin' down
We gotta find someone to clean this up, he’s comin' back to town
Hi there boss we waxed your cars, we raked and mowed your lawn
We couldn’t find enough to do in the short time you were gone
Man it sure is peaceful here, you’ve really got it all
If you ever hit the road again, give me and Snake a call
We’re gypsies in the palace, he’s left us here alone
The Order of the Sleepless Knights will now assume the throne
We ain’t got no money, we ain’t got no right
But we’re gypsies in the palace, we got it all tonight
(Spoken)
«Hey, Jimmy, It’s Glenn»
«Glenn, How ya doin'?»
«Fine man, I’m goin' on the road
Do you know anybody who could possibly house-sit for me?»
«I got these two great guys that look after my place
Man, they’re the best!»
