'I'll sing you a ballad

of a fork from a salad

I'll sing about the barrels

from which we drank while singing carols

I'll tell you a story

about a battle oh so gory

but nothing can come close

to the crime that made me toast

Spillage of brew

won't do anything for you

Learn from this song

and the things that I did wrong.'
