Lyrics Robin Hood - Momus

Robin Hood

This is the tale of Robin Hood\nKind and fair, brave and good\nThis is the tale of Robin Hood\nHow the guy got shafted\nRobin Hood, Robin Hood\nRobbing from the rich, giving to the good\nRobin Hood, Robin Hood\nHappy ever after\nBut driving down from Nottingham, here comes Dooh Nibor\nHis motto is 'Protection' and his motto is 'Screw the poor'\nDooh Nibor, Dooh Nibor, serve the rich, screw the poor\nDon’t let the bastard grind you down\nHe drags you to the granary out among the cranes\nAt the end of the runway underneath the planes\nIn a big black suit that looks a little strange\nWith the gold crash hat in the rays of the sun\nWith the visor black and the baseball bat and the …\nRobin Hood, Robin Hood\nYou’re not dead yet, it’s just some blood\nRobin Hood, Robin Hood\nGet back and show the bastard!\nRobin Hood, Robin Hood\nBound and gagged in the nude\nRobin Hood, in the boot\nOf an Opel Corsa\nAs the pylons glisten in the sun of Dooh Nibor\nThe world below him listens, there’s no place for you here any more\nWe pull our golden helmets on and turn to face the sun\nDon’t let the bastards grind you down\nHe’s got you cuffed at the reservoir up above the dam\nWith a gag and a blindfold shitting in your pants\nClambering on scaffolding, stumbling on planks\nLook out, Robin! (Too late!)\nRobin Hood, Robin Hood\nBreathing through a rubber tube\nSherwood Forest is your club\nSherwood Forest for the cup\nRobin Hood, Robin Hood\nIn a wheelchair buying food\nParalysed but feeling good\nMentally retarded\nPull your golden helmet on and take a golden ride\nKidney dialysis colostomy bag by your side\nRobin Hood, Robin Hood, breathing through your rubber tube\nDon’t let the bastards grind you down!\nDon’t let the bastards grind you down!
