SONG
Andreas
Look at me and know your King, Sir,
I'm the lad a bird to wing, Sir.
Doff your hat, man, 'tis the law —
Tell me, will you? ha-ha-ha!
Star on breast and plume in bonnet,
I'm the lad that shot and won it.
Doff your hat then; 'tis the law —
What, have you won? ha-ha-ha!
Mighty Sir, excuse our joking,
Ne'er to hit is quite provoking,
You, who hit whate'er you saw,
Quite chapfallen — ha-ha-ha!
OR THIS
Mighty Sir, excuse our grinning;
You're the lad were sure of winning
Never missed whate'er you saw!
Never? tell me — ha-ha-ha!
