Rumpelstilstkin - Song Book A work in progress - May'09

What do you know?

Oh! What do you know about that little man?

That nice little man, the helpful little guy,

That nice little man who's always willing to give it a try.

Oh! What do you know about that little man?

-

That nice little man, the helpful little guy ,

Nice little man, funny little, odd little, strange bearded mister,

Who's been so kind to my best mates sister.

-

Oh! What do you know about that little man?

That nice little man, helpful little guy, crook shanks bandy legs, hunch backed fly,

Funny little, odd little, strange bearded mister,

That weird and wonderful, oh! so very shy and helpful creature.

-

That nice little man, the helpful little preacher,

That funny little odd little, strange bearded mister.

Crook shanks, bandy legs, hunchback he,

That weird and wonderful creature who's been so good to me.

Chorus

Oh! What do you, Oh! What do you, Oh! What do you really know?

Oh! What do you, Oh! What do you, Oh! What do you really know?

Oh! What do you, Oh! What do you, Oh! What do you really know?

Oh! What do you really know?

-

The manakin from the mountains, the ugly mountain goat,

With the long beard, pointy hat and that dirty coat,

Oh! What do you know about that little man?

-

That weirdo from the forest, the dwarf from the woods,

Weird little monster, almost certainly up to no good,

Crazy little guy, up to no good, nasty little freak who has a taste for blood.

-

Evil, dangerous, greedy little shit,

lying, kerniving, monster and a git,

Nothing but trouble and bad luck,

Banish him to another land and never let him back.

-

Hang him from a tree, dunk him in the pond,

Smoke him out, tie him up, burry him in the ground,

In the dock, in the stocks, give him to the crowd,

Chop him up and feed him - to those who's cries are now so loud.

-

Oh! what do you know about, what do you know about,

what do you know, what the fuck do you know,

Oh! what the hell do you know about that dead little man,

The hell you know about that dead little man.

-

Chorus

Oh! What do you, Oh! What do you, Oh! What do you really know?

Oh! What do you, Oh! What do you, Oh! What do you really know?

Oh! What do you, Oh! What do you, Oh! What do you really know?

Oh! What do you really know?
