Chapt. Two - Guess who? Manfred The GreatThe great king bashed down his goblet on the oaken table as kings do when they want more wine. Everyone was silent. 'Minstrel the noise of chattering women grates on my ears. Play me some music,' he bellowed.A fairy tale handed downI believed it, didn't we allA man, a hero, walks on to the sceneUnquestionably good at everythingFirst he does battle with various creaturesWhich compared to his goodness are evil monstersHaving made dragons extinct foreverHe murders a couple of the castle guardsHe enters the castle quite unnoticedAnd tells the girl he'll be back for her'And so I shall make her mine forever'But runs into trouble and is taken prisonerIs taken to the big bad, bad, bad, baddyBaddy tells hero how goodness is finishedAnd has him strapped up to a slow-death deviceBut he escapes as the rope starts to burn throughThe blade crashes down on the block where his head wasWith a sword from the wall he finishes the castle guardsA lamp gets knocked over in the panic and a fire startsA race against time to rescue the princessTo get past the baddy to get out of the castleOut of the window where the horses are waitingThe couple ride off and the whole place goes up in flames Aus Songtexte Mania
