We Three Kings re-written to commiserated with those epic walkers of old. Those of fantastic feet. Those with super sandals.
Arranged for three voices and piano.
Lyrics:
Tutti: We three kings of Orient are;
bearing gifts we traverse afar,
sandals flopping, without stopping
following yonder star.
Refrain:
O star of wonder, star of light,
star with royal beauty bright,
westward leading, still proceeding,
How far to this Nazarite?
King I: Born a King on Bethlehem's plain,
gold I bring to crown him again,
Walking ever, ceasing never,
Wowzers my legs in pain.
Tutti: O star of wonder, star of light,
star with royal beauty bright,
westward leading, still proceeding,
Travlling on both day and night.
King II: Frankincense to offer have I;
incense owns a Deity nigh;
Real trail-blazing, its hair-raising,
Trudging along, I sigh.
Tutti: O star of wonder, star of light,
star with royal beauty bright,
westward leading, still proceeding,
Breaks are a true delight.
King III: Myrrh is mine; its bitter perfume
breathes a life of gathering gloom;
blisters bleeding, not conceding,
Where is the next bathroom?
Tutti: O star of wonder, star of light,
star with royal beauty bright,
westward leading, still proceeding,
Dunes are a gruesome sight.
Tutti: Glorious now, at last weve arrived,
From our comforts weve been deprived:
Presents given, wish wed been driven
Dont think my knees survived.
Tutti: O star of wonder, star of light,
star with royal beauty bright,
West we followed, pain we swallowed,
Back we sorely trudge tonight.
Comments as leave stage: What, all the way back again? Home again, jigged-jog. We just came all this way West and now we have to go back east?
