Longbone |
| There was a king who built a ship |
| And sailed away |
| To look for gold in the hills of scone |
| Far away |
| The only gold in the hills of scone |
| Is gold you’ll never own |
| It belongs to the giant longbone |
| Far away |
| The only gold I’ve ever known |
| It all belonged to the giant longbone |
| His teeth are sharp, his claws are long |
| So they say |
| His eyes are like a fire that burns |
| Far away |
| We will go to the hills of scone |
| We’ll find the giant longbone |
| We’ll turn him into stone |
| Far away |
| The only gold I’ve ever known |
| It all belonged to the giant longbone |
| Through the rain and through the snow |
| We sailed away |
| To the land where only fools go Far away |
| We stepped onto the shore |
| And then we heard him roar |
| He must have seen us We tried to hide, we tried to run |
| Run away |
| He killed the crew, he threw the boat |
| Far away |
| And then he said «We are alone |
| I am the giant longbone |
| You shold have stayed at home |
| Far away» |
| The only gold I’ve ever known |
| It all belonged to the giant longbone |
