In Praise of Geoffrey Scott

Colin MacLear
Ducal Prize Tournament, September, AS XXXV (2000)

(To the tune of "Ain't Misbehaving")

No one to fight with, left all alone
Its half-past midnight, but someday I’ll win a throne
I’m still in armor, my fighting day isn’t through

I’ll fight anybody, newbie or knight
Bruised, battered, or bloody-I just wanna fight
I’m still in armor, my fighting day isn’t through

Dane axe or pike
Glaive with buttspike
One or a pair
What do I care?
I’ve made up two of every kind (believe me)
A hundred five battles, my very own war
The army skedaddles-Come back! Fight some more!
I’m still in armor, my fighting day isn’t through.

This is from Colin's CD and accompanying booklet "Bardic Fire", which contains pieces that Colin created and performed during his tenure as Bard of the West.
