Testo Once Upon A Mattress

Dauntless: I like you Fred, I like you
Fred: You're just saying those words to be kind
Dauntless: No I mean it, I like--
I mean I love you Fred!
Fred: He is out of his medieval mind
Dauntless:
Everybody everybody everybody come
And meet my incipient wife! I'm in love with a girl named Fred
When she shows you all how strong she is
You'll stand right up and cheer!
Knights and Ladies:
With an F and an R and an E and a D
And an F-R-E-D Fred! Hey!
Dauntless:
I'm in love with a girl named Fred
She drinks just like a lord
So let's sing a merry drinking song
And let the wine be poured

K&L: Fill the bowl to overflowing
Raise the goblet high!
Dauntless:
I'm in love with a girl named Fred
She sings just like a bird
Gentle voice is heard

Fred: (original)Ahhhhhh ahahahahahahahhh!
(revival)shoobee doo bop shoobee doo bop
shoobee doo wabadeebee doo bow

a clever clownish wit
When she does her funny pantomime
Your sides are sure to split

Ha ha ha ha ho ho ho ho ha ha ha ha ho

She wrestles like a greek

Clap

She's musical to boot
plays upon her lute

Fred plays

She's graceful

Bravo bravo bravissimo bravo bravo bravissimo

I'm in love with a girl

He's in love with a girl
Named F-R-E-D
Fred: Wahoooo!
Fred!
