DEFENDED MY WAY BACK TO YOU		LW
(Sung to:  "Workin' My Way Back to YOu" by ??)

CHORUS:	I've defended my way back to you, maid,
	WHile the passion burned inside.
	I've defended my way back to you, maid,
	And I damn near lost my hide.
	Performing every deed
	To win your love for me.

My life became a tale of woe
WHen you commanded me to go.
You said that acts of chivalry
Would make you give  your hand to me.
So I undertook
This quest like a schnook
Just to prove myself worthy of you.
How could I know 
When I was  away
The other knights
Were seeing  you every day?

CHORUS

I never thought my heart could be
Deceived by you so easily.
A wiser man could surely tell
The title "Mistress" suits you well.
How I hacked and slayed!
With each blow I prayed
That someday our romance would renew.
When dragons charged,
I ran them through.
But now I see
The real dragon is you.

CHORUS

I've taken lives before...
Perhaps I should take one more...

Forgive me, Sire...
It happened this way.
Forgive me, SIre...
Let me explain.
Forgive me, Sire...
I'm innocent as can be.
You see --
I had my sword, it was
Right in my hand,
And I was cleaning it.
Well, you understand.
She said she had an itch, it was
Right on her back.
It was a nasty itch.
I had to scratch for it over and over 
And over and over again!

CHORUS
