Post by bunniefuu »

[Music]

is it you want are you a bad guy

i will answer the second question first

no i am not a bad guy in fact i'm good

i'm robin good

and these are my good friends

the merry men

and as for the first question

[Music]

care for some fresh greased lemonade the

best thing sure with fire only a

farthing perk up um perhaps you'd enjoy

a round of golf may i put you down as a

twosome excuse me ballroom dancing more

lessons four shillings how about an

overpriced candy bar there's a coupon

for pizza inside there up there you're

you're not thieves by all means no this

is little john

big red

bill scarlett and friar cluck we

fundraise from the rich and give to the

poor

rich i wouldn't say we're rich would you

no

after all we're walking through sherwood

forest i don't even have a mort can one

be rich without a mort

it really is a good cause give till it

hurts

[Music]

well

maybe i will have a touch of lemonade

it's for the kids

one does get thirsty when one travels

we really would love to do more to help

but you know

with the economy these days ah that's

true times are as tough as granny's shoe

leather it's so bad i lost my job at the

unemployment office

ah delicious keep up the good work

watch out for giants

pathetic

how many can we afford now little john

uh

counting that

um one

well boys one is better than none let's

go buy a ham

happy birthday little nate

woohoo birthday hands and a real one

taboo thought i was gonna have to carve

you one out of wood again

oh thank you mr good merry men you're

welcome miss louis

times have been tough and we've been

hurting

but like i always tell my children

never trust a plastic hippo no not that

the other thing there's no hair too big

for god

that's right

thank you

ah oh sheriff what brings you here maybe

the party pooper express

i hate to do this miss lewis but i'm

gonna have to ask you for that hand

what

i i'm very sorry it prints john's orders

you haven't paid your ham tax since last

year i haven't had a ham since last year

you can't take the lady's ham what kind

of sheriff are you to per line her pork

chops i i

there's nothing i can do

i really am sorry it's not fair she has

so little

look

you'll have to take it up with prince

john i'm under orders

some days it just doesn't pay to come

into work did that just happen yep that

just happened

i'm sorry miss lewis we'll go try and

get you another ham you're so sweet no

no we'll make do

i guess it's birthday cruel again this

year children

this is ridiculous fundraising from the

rich and giving to the poor it took us

three days to get that ham all right

[Applause]

i know people that can raise a whole pig

in an hour i had to sell 14 cups of that

watered down lemonade

i potatoes in myself well

times are tough

and you'll know why times are tough i'll

tell you why prince john that's why

you're living

[Applause]

we should invitations something about

that guy i'm sure he's not that bad

maybe he doesn't know how much people

are hurting how could he not know it's

robbery what he's doing robbery i say oh

for king richard to return

if he's robbing from the poor why

shouldn't we rob him right back

you mean pilfer from the crown why not

yeah i like it guys we shouldn't because

it's wrong to steal robin good and his

merry men robbing from the rich and

giving to the poor forget fundraising

man it's only logical the robbers of the

royals oh it's so much poetic justice

well i'm not robbing from anyone maybe

if it were bill scarlett and his merry

men you wouldn't have to worry about it

huh if you're not vegetable enough to

fight the man then we will come on merry

men are you guys with me absolutely

we got your back bill count me in

getting his fun

this is terrible

god what am i supposed to do

i'm all alone

in the forest

with giants

big red is that you

help let me in giant giant

[Music]

welcome if i let you in i'll be letting

that giant bloke in too won't i

yeah you make a good point

[Music]

lovely evening

[Music]

robin is that you

oh hi miss lewis you're up late yeah

no one knows this but i'm really a

superhero and at night i fight crime

really

just kidding i'm collecting firewood

say where are your merry men

they're not my merry men anymore they

left they lost you i'm so sorry that

must really hurt

yeah it sure does

miss lewis

you said earlier that no hurt is too big

for god

does losing your friends count soil

that's a mighty big hurt indeed

a very wise king even wiser than our

king richard once said

give all your burdens to the lord and he

will take care of you

but how do i do that

how do i give my burdens to god

tell him your heart is hurting

tell him you're feeling blue you can't

make it yourself and you need his help

to comfort and see you through

he'll care for you he'll care for you he

loves you and he's always there for you

his burden is light his promise is true

god will take care of you

god will take care of you

[Music]

we can't hear you

look at all these people now's my chance

excuse me i'm fundraising for the poor

and i was wondering if you

can i sign you up for the celebrity golf

scramble

next saturday

the lemonade

har har snicker hot can you hear me now

you're good

welcome all to the archery demonstration

who's the best at archery

[Music]

who's the only one who can protect us

against giants king richard

that's right prince john let's give him

a ham a better ham

thank you oh thank you people of

betteringham i'm grateful for your

delicious andres as you are certainly

grateful that i can keep all those

giants away

[Applause]

[Music]

[Music]

oh for pete's sake would not make a

wonderful king

[Music]

you saved us

[Music]

you're supposed to make me look good

why'd you let that happen

i don't know to the dungeon with you the

dungeon of despair

[Music]

who is that guy anyway he was handing

out hams yesterday that's all i know

handing out hams

that sounds fishy i hope you took him

yeah i did good

didn't you see that he saved those

children he's amazing sheriff we need to

keep an eye on this troublemaker

invite him back to the castle for dinner

he'll be

my guest

yes sir

excuse me

oh hi sheriff

sorry i'm fresh out of him look i was

just doing my job i don't always agree

with the prince

in fact

hardly anyone agrees with the prince but

if you don't do what he says they'll

throw you in the dungeon or worse yet

the dungeon of despair

is that like the regular dungeon but

with more despair oh the dungeon of

despair is a terrible place it takes

away all your hope and

there's no way out

anyway the princess asked that you'd be

his guest tonight for dinner dinner

really

that's great i wouldn't be so excited

i've been wanting to talk to him there's

some things i think he needs to know

about the hams well i'd be careful if i

were you uh

robin and do you have a last name robin

yeah it's good i believe you i'm sure

it's great no it's not great

it's good

that's nothing to be ashamed of my last

name is sort of mediocre i told you

sheriff mediocre it's good my last name

is good then why won't you tell me tell

you what what your last name is it's

good robin good

oh

nice to meet you robin good

this is no good the wood is wet and we

have no more matches no matter we have

nothing to cook anyway and i'm hungry

huh metro monemy so what kind of a crazy

plan was this to starve starving the

forest give me time we were supposed to

rob from the royals we haven't seen a

blue blood all day no wonder the royal

family does not live in sherwood forest

only we live here well what do you

suggest mr smarty pants i don't know

perhaps look for a place the prince

might hang out

um

how about that castle over there

boys i got a plan

[Music]

wow is

is this table made out of mahogany

nice

looks heavy

hmm is that basil i smell

love basil would you like some well now

that you mention it you can't have it

there's not enough

seems there's somebody who's been giving

away my hams to the poor so funny you

should mention that prince i've been

wanting to talk to you about the hams

you see the people of bethlehem are in

great need despite what you'd expect

from a town named bethlehem there's

really not much ham at all excuse me

i've put together a little presentation

[Music]

as this light shows ham per capita is

way below the national average in fact

only cushingham ranked lower in this

survey here you can see that charitable

giving is way down this year leaving few

options for those seeking respite

respite risk beat respite

you know this might make more sense if i

say it another way

or should i say sing it another way

there's no eraser here today sir that

can rid your town of hunger but there is

one clear decision that'll bring them

out from under the true solution is an

obvious path

you've got lots of food and they don't

do the math

what you're gonna do prince hey give a

ham to everybody give a ham to everyone

a helping hand to each and every

everybody with a ham is better than one

pam

brother good

i don't believe i'm getting through to

you

i would never dare

ever attempt to share

i'm keeping and making my bacon for my

own taste buds yes i haven't the right

this honey baked swine is mine every

morsel and rib divine how could i waste

one

as the reigning prince of battling um

i'm praised for what i praised and shout

down

so better watch out i'm the man

understand

this little piggy's on the table this

little piggy's for lunch this little pig

is gonna be a smack on a cr*cker later

for me to munch this one is shaped just

like stonehenge this one's from my

valentine

this one and these ones and those ones

are mine

[Music]

just another moment more

i hope you won't ignore the need is real

indeed your people are hungry

you have so much to give yes you could

change the way they live how could you

ever eat every nibble and k*ll yourself

anyway

just watch me

i know you're in a jam

but i won't help you man this pork

belongs to me and not too

i

[Applause]

[Music]

you stole my ham what that's ridiculous

i don't steal stealing's wrong you stole

my ham you pinched my pork chops

short ribs sheriff rest this cucumber

and throw him in the dungeon of despair

no and throw away the key

[Music]

over here

[Music]

if you ever show your face in bethlehem

again i'll put it in the dungeon of

despair

your face i mean

and the rest of you too

and as for you

[Music]

now i've lost everything

my friends my fundraising

i can't even go back to bethlehem

robin

miss lewis wow you're everywhere gotta

go where the firewood takes me why only

last week i found myself picking twigs

in tottenham square little mate got

stuck in a cotton candy machine

me boy your face is as long as a boring

sermon still not doing so well

nope

maybe bill was right

maybe robbing from the rich was the way

to go

at least then i'd still have friends

you're really so sure stalin would make

things better well they want to arrest

me for not stealing so what's the

difference the the prince has a dungeon

cell with my name on it

well you'd have good company what do you

mean a sheriff a prince threw him in the

dungeon this evening oh wow the dungeon

of despair the dungeon of despair i

think it's like the regular dungeon only

with extra despair oh no

he's gonna give in to that despair

unless someone could share with him what

you've been learning

never trust a plastic hippo the other

thing that no hurt is too big for god

even not having any friends or being

alone in the dungeon of despair that's

me boy you thought you were at the end

of your rope until you found someone

else at the end of is

i gotta get to the sheriff before he

loses hope

watch out for giants and you watch out

for that rock

wow

what a lot of little bottles
