The Girl and the Clockwork Dragon |
| In a kingdom high upon a hill |
| In a land of long ago |
| Sat a woeful king, waiting for the sting |
| Of death’s impending blow |
| For a clockwork dragon to the west |
| Burned a village all away |
| Breathing fire and steam, it had now been seen |
| Heading in the kingdom’s way! |
| Protective of his subjects, this king issued a decree |
| He stood before his kingdom and cried, «This is what we need:» |
| Men of valor who will fight the dragon to the death |
| Warriors to go extinguish fierce and fiery breath |
| Selfless knights to fight the battle, man against machine |
| Heroes who will give their lives for king and queen! |
| The dragon got the King’s best men |
| They were no match for the beast |
| To the fire they’d run, and yet one by one |
| Every knight wound up deceased |
| Now a wee young girl named Valerie |
| With an artificial heart |
| To the king did speak and though small and meek |
| She was kind and she was smart |
| She asked the king, «Why don’t we try approaching peacefully?» |
| The king, he laughed and said, «Dear girl, I’ll tell you what we need!» |
| Men of valor who will fight the dragon to the death |
| Warriors to go extinguish fierce and fiery breath |
| Selfless knights to fight the battle, man against machine |
| Heroes who will give their lives for king and queen! |
| But Valerie was strong of heart, and she knew what she must do |
| Her clockwork heart was guiding her, and she had to follow through |
| And so she traveled to the fields |
| And she called the Dragon near |
| As it flew on down, it could hear a sound |
| Quite familiar to its ears |
| The ticking of her clockwork heart |
| Sounded so much like its own |
| And the calming tick had reminded it |
| Of its maker way back home |
| The dragon bowed to Valerie to willingly concede |
| The humbled king then proudly shouted «She's the one we need!» |
| We need Valerie to tame the dragon for us all |
| Who’d have ever thought our hero would have been so small? |
| She has soothed the savage beast, so sound your horn and drum! |
| We shall sing her praises now for years to come! |
| LONG LIVE, LONG LIVE VALERIE! |
