Now once upon a time - an old man told me a fable

When the piper is gone

and the soup is cold on your table

And if the black crow flies

To find a new destination

That is the sign

Come tonight

Come to the ogre sight

Come to ogre battle fight



He gives a great big cry

And he can swallow up the ocean

With a mighty tongue he catches flies

The palm of his hand incredible size

One great big eye

Has a focus in your direction

Now the battle is on

Yeah, yeah, yeah come tonight

Come to the ogre sight

Come to ogre battle fight



The ogre men are still inside

The two way mirror mountain

Gotta keep down right out of sight

You can't see in but they can see out

"Keep a look out"

The ogre men are coming out

From the two way mirror mountain

They're running up behind

And they're coming all about

Can't go east 'cos you gotta go south



Ogre men are going home

And the great big fight is over

Bugle blow, let trumpet cry

Ogre battle lives on for evermore

You can come along

You can come along

Come to ogre battle
