Something about "and 10,000 Macedonian soldiers in full battle array" Can anyone help me out ?? Also I do Medieval re-enactments (SCA and Faires) and I am looking for the rest of the lyrics to the Valkrie song.. I have this much so far They fly through the night skies..flapping their fat thighs, picking up dead guys ..Here they come now.. I want a blonde one..I want a red-head.. "Hey that one's not dead !!.. Look at him go.." A friend in the SCA taught us those lyrics but not the rest.. The Wenches Guild (my local) has been after me to get the rest.. Anyone know it ???? Thanks for reading !!

Once you know them, the fun begins. You call a kid out of the audience to stand up in front of everyone. He/she must repeat each line after you, reciting all of the lines before it. So, you'll say line 1; he says line 1. You say line 2; he says line 1 and line 2; you say line 3; he says lines 1, 2, and 3. And so on. Enjoy!
One hen.

Two ducks Three squawking geese Four limerick oysters Five porpulant porpoises Six pairs of Don Alvarsos's tweezers Seven marching Macedonian Soldiers in full battle array Eight brass monkeys from the ancient crypts of Egypt Nine apathetic, sympathetic, diabetic old men on roller skates with a marked propensity for procrastination and sloth Ten lyrical, spherical, diabolical denisions of the deep who haul stall around the corner of the quo, the quivey, and the quake, all at the same time. From here. Cheers! Ian

One verse I remember was: "Seven sailing ships sailing from Orinoco to Madagascar on Prince Thergar's wedding day." |
