In Praise of Geoffrey Scott

Lyrics by Colin MacLear

(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.
