Unrewarded again Was the helmetless knight For a hero is nothing Without mask shining bright Or courage of steel To keep evil at bay If he's not looking right Then I'll send him away
If great sea monsters drown And dragon eyes turn to stone What fun if it's done By a shrivelled old crone Who could save thieves a bullet And few years in jail there's no sign of her In this fairytale
So where is the saviour? The galant, the wise The hero who kills With a flick of his eyes Well he's feeling tired And wanted A treat So he moved out of town To a new penthouse suite
But he's still a hero just sits around having fun He's Got all his teeth And his heads nice and dumb Or maybe the authors Just got carried away And lost sight of the message They want to convey
