DAWN AT THE ENGLISH FAIR,
ONE EVENING IT WAS THERE,
I HEARD A SHOWMAN SHOUTING,
UNDERNEATH THE BLARE...

I'VE GOT A LOVELY BUNCH OF COCONUTS,
THERE THEY ARE STANDING IN A ROW.

BIG ONES, SMALL ONES, SOME AS BIG AS YOUR HEAD,
GIVE'EM A TWIST, A FLICK OF THE WRIST,
THAT'S WHAT THE SHOWMAN SAID.

I'VE GOT A LOVELY BUNCH OF COCONUTS,
THERE THEY ARE STANDING IN A ROW.
THERE STANDS MY WIFE,
THE IDOL OF MY LIFE,

SHOUTING "ROLL-A-BOWL-A-BALL, A PENNY A PITCH."
SINGING "ROLL-A-BOWL-A-BALL, A PENNY A PITCH."
"ROLL-A-BOWL-A-BALL, A PENNY A PITCH,
ROLL-A-BOWL-A-BALL,
ROLL-A-BOWL-A-BALL,."
SINGING "ROLL-A-BOWL-A-BALL,
A PENNY A PITCH!"

FRED HEATHERTON, AN ENGLISH SONGWRITER, WROTE "I'VE GOT A LOVELY BUNCH OF COCONUTS" IN 1944.


THE SONG WAS RECORDED AND PERFORMED BY DANNY KAYE (DAVID DANIEL KAMINSKI).

Okay, that was a little joke, a song I recalled from an old film. Here are a couple of songs I really like.

The Man Of La Mancha

Hear me now, Oh, thou bleak and unbearable world
Thou art base and debauched as can be
And a knight with his banners all bravely unfurled
Now hurls down his gauntlet to thee!

I am I, Don Quixote, the Lord of La Mancha
My destiny calls and I go
And the wild winds of fortune shall carry me onward
Oh, withersoever they blow
Withersoever they blow
Onward to glory I go

[instrumental break]

Hear me heathens and wizards and serpents of sin
All your dastardly doings are past
For a holy endeavor is now to begin
And virtue shall triumph at last.

I am I, Don Quixote, the Lord of La Mancha.
A name all the world soon will know
I commend all my soul to the wild winds of fortune
Oh withersoever they blow
Withersoever they blow
Onward to glory I go!


The Impossible Dream (The Quest)

To dream the impossible dream
To fight the unbeatable foe
To bear with unbearable sorrow
To run where the brave dare not go.

To right the unrightable wrong
To be better far than you are
To try when your arms are too weary
To reach the unreachable star

This is my quest, to follow that star,
No matter how hopeless, no matter how far
To be willing to give when there's no more to give
To be willing to die so that honor and justice may live

And I know if I'll only be true to this glorious quest
That my heart will lie peaceful and calm when I'm laid to my rest

And the world will be better for this
That one man scorned and covered with scars
Still strove with his last ounce of courage
To reach the unreachable star.

Xev your song is called In THe End by Linkin Park
I hate it, personally

anyway, I will answer this later, now I have to finish some work!

Thanks Ty. Odd. I normally despise Linkin Park.

Adamski, good ones.
