King James knows the Lady of the Lake
He's hearing her heart
Pulling a handwritten poem
out of his pocket
he puts his hat on
silently singing the Spanish song
stopping the stranger in the street
he suddenly asks
whose will will work first?
That explains remembering, replying,
and the bad bad invisible voice I'm hearing
I will milk the stories in the time that I have
understand uproarious words
and we will have a book
