Ogre Battle - Live at the Golders Green Hippodrome, London / September 1973 Songtext
von Queen

We′re now, I'm gonna take you to the battlefield
This is called "Ogre Battle"

Ah, ah, ah, ah
Aaaah

Now, once upon a time, an old man told me a fable
When the piper is gone and the soup is cold on the table
And if the black crow flies to find a new destination
That is the sign, yeah, yeah, yeah

Come tonight
Come to the ogre site
Come to the ogre battle, fight

He gives a great big cry, and he can swallow up the ocean
With a mighty tongue, he catches flies and the palm of his hand incredible size
Great big eye has to focus in your direction
The battle is on, yeah, yeah, yeah

Come tonight
Come to the ogre site
Come to the ogre battle, fight


Ah, ah, ah, ah
Aaah
Ooh, watch out

The ogre men are still inside, the two-way mirror mountain
You gotta sit clear and right out of sight
You can′t see in, but they can see out
Keep a lookout

The ogre men are coming out from the two-way mirror mountain
They're running up behind, and they're coming all about
Can′t go east, ′cause you gotta go south

Ogre men are going home
And the great big fight is over
The bugle blow let trumpet cry
Ogre battle lives forevermore

Oooh, you can come along
You can come along
Come to ogre battle

Ah, ah, ah, ah
Aaah, oooh


Thank you very much
Okay, right now, right now
Queen would to drink a special Christmas toast
To everybody here, all the viewers
So cheers
