Glass Hammer

Glass Hammer - The Old Troll And The Maiden songtekst

Je score:

The old Troll sat beneath the bridge

And waited out the hours

He dreamed of pretty princesses

And white and lofty towers

He longed to eat the sweetest treat

And one he'd never tasted

A maiden fair beyond compare

Spiced and nicely basted



A maiden dear was walking near

Out in the nighttime chilling

This lovely lass, she held no fear

Of trolls and all their killing

A fairer maid he'd never seen

Far too fair for grilling

instead he thought to ask a dance

To see if she were willing



Chorus:

A yimmering, a yammering

A beating and a clamoring

So hard his heart was hammering

He feared for his own life

A yimmering, a yammering

While stammering and glamoring

He found her so enamoring

He never saw the knife

The knife? The knife. The knife!

He never saw the knife!



For her bodice so revealing

It sent his head a reeling

her hem so high, unto her thigh

It caused an eerie feeling

One that Troll was most unsure of

He'd never known before

He should be done with his first course

And heading back for more



For Troll had never been in love

What was Troll thinking of

He'd never eat this dainty girl

As pretty as a dove

So they danced the night away

And soon the break of day

Was coming fast when then our lass

Decided not to stay



Chorus



She'd had enough of making bluff

The Troll would soon grow wary

Or even worse, and such a curse

He'd ask for her to marry

And so her knife was brought to bear

She snuck up form behind

But Trolls are thick and knives don't stick

As she was soon to find



The cock did crow, the sun did glow

A curse upon his kind

He held her tight in meaty arms

For stone was sure to bind

And to her shock he turned to rock

As daybreak fell anew

She screamed and fought to free herself

Which she was not to do



Chorus



A statue stands in yonder wood

Though not a statue really

The summer sun shines over it

The winter wind blows chilling

Beneath its shadow lying there

A knife and bits of bone

Thus Troll and lady pass the years

Together yet alone



Chorus
