about

The dragon ate the person and the knight. In the tummy the person and the knight danced all around the place. The dragon had a tummy-ache.

lyrics

some rescue mission you mounted
thought you’d have the brute surrounded
and soon you found your shining armour
conceals a soft centre
no match for his temper
my dinner companion
least we go down together

you pray the lord to save your soul
i just pray we’re swallowed whole
stick a sword in his tongue if you can
and give me your hand
cause i have a plan

we can dance in the belly of the beast
put your hands up to the hammer heartbeat
we can stand a little more heat
if you intend to save a maiden
next time know when to retreat
while the flames lap at your feet

in the tummy of the dragon
that’s where the fire happens
but i bet you never had a tummy ache like this before

we can dance in the belly of the beast
put your hands up to the hammer heartbeat
we can stand a little more heat
if you intend to save a maiden
next time know when to retreat
while the flames lap at your feet
