My first vocals for anyone in 24 1/2 years. That's right folks, since May of 1999 at Seattle University. So I will sound a little out of practice and secondly I set myself a hard task with the instrumental track being made first and the vocals later. brackets are lyrics left on the cutting room floor. One day the fool came walking by And the king said 'let's have laughter' [Then the fool said 'Well I'll make a jest' 'But let's just not kill me after'] (replaced with some da-da-da'ing) He proceeded then to make his pitch And the king besat there, all bewitched But there came a point which had a flaw And the fool knew he might lose it all [So he turned to something he felt safe] [And the king then seemed to forget the gaffe] But the fool well knew his lucky break And he quickly then made his escape Being free to muse on the fickleness of rulers As the day grew gaunt and grey He thanked his stars (this line sounds indistinct in the recording) That unlike his peers He lived to jest another daymore
