United We Stand
Knights:
United we stand
Now and forever
In truth, divided we fall
Hand upon hand
Brother to brother
No one shall be greater than all
United we stand
Now and forever
In truth, divided we fall
Hand upon hand
Brother to brother
No one shall be greater than all
King Arthur:
It's been ten years we celebrate
All that made our kingdom great
Liberty and justice for all
Each of us will now divide
In equal shares, our countryside
Promising equality for all who reside!
Knights:
United we stand
Now and forever
In truth, divided we fall
Hand upon hand
Brother to brother
No one shall be greater than all
Liberty!
Justice!
Trust!
Shall be greater than all
Freedom!
Peace!
Honour!
No one greater than all
Goodness!
Strength!
Valour!
Shall be greater than -
Ruber:
Me!
On My Father's Wings
If you were with me now
I'd find myself in you
If you were with me now
You're the only one who knew
All the things we planned to do
I want to live my life
The way you said I would
With courage as my light
Fighting for what's right
Like you made me believe I could
And I will fly on my father's wings
To places I have never been
There is so much I've never seen
And I can feel his heartbeat still
And I will do great things
On my father's wings
This world I'll never see
My dreams that just won't be
This horse's stride with one day's ride
Will have covered more distance than me
And I will fly on my father's wings
To places I have never been
There is so much I've never seen
And I can feel his heartbeat still
And I will do great things
On my father's wings
Someday with his spirit to guide me
And his memory beside me
I will be free
To fly on my father's wings
To places I have never been
There is so much I've never seen
And I can feel his heartbeat still
And I will do great things
On my father's wings
On my father's wings
Ruber
Ruber:
Let's go back to war and violence
I'm so bored with peace and silence!
Nights of evil filled with fear
Your worst dream, that's my idea of fun!
Let darkness find its sad ways
Let's go back to good old bad days
No more foolish acts of kindness
Arthur and his kingdom will be mine
Years from now, no one will bother
To recall your good King Arthur
Because all of this will be mine
This will all be mine!
I have a plan, it includes you
You, Juliana, will lead me to Camelot
Where I will claim all that is mine
In the back of your wagons, my men will all hide
You'll sit up front as the gates open wide
Now watch me create my mechanical army with pride
With this potion I bought from some witches
A drop on this chicken
All watch as he switches
Into a weapon that I can use at will
Now this chicken can kill
Ta-da! Behold!
Bladebeak!
Stand right up and enter quickly
I'll transform the meek and sickly
Into iron men with hands of steel
Yes, yes, into the water. Quickly now. Go, you fools!
Next! Stand up straight now! Move it along!
No, no, that's no good!
Prepare for the dawning of a new age!
The Ruberian age!
Year One!
Choral Chant:
Bring on the darkness, bring on the gloom,
We are the army of death and gloom
Bring on the darkness, bring on the gloom
We are the army of death and gloom
[Choral Chant continues]
Ruber:
Only one will be revered
Worshipped, hated, loved and feared
I'd just like to say a few words:
I, me, mine!
You were mistaken if you believed
Ruber was someone who'd crumble and leave
Now I am back and I will be staying this time
[Choral Chant ends]
I told you once
I told you twice
Everything you see before you
Every last bit of it
Will... be... mine...
The Prayer
I pray you will be my eyes
And watch her where she goes
And help her to be wise
Help me to let go
Every mother's prayer
Every child knows
Lead her to a place
Guide her to a place
Give her faith so she'll be safe
Lead her to a place
Guide her with your grace
To a place where she'll be safe
I Stand Alone
I know the sound of each rock and stone
And I embrace what others fear
You are not to roam in this forgotten place
Just the likes of me are welcome here
Everything breathes and I know each breath
For me it means life, for others it's death
It's perfectly balanced, perfectly planned
More than enough for this man
Like every tree stands on its own
Reaching for the sky I stand alone
I share my world with no one else
All by myself, I stand alone
I've seen your world with these very eyes
Don't come any closer, don't even try
I've felt all the pain and heard all the lies
But in my world there's no compromise
Like every tree stands on its own
Reaching for the sky I stand alone
I share my world with no one else
All by myself, I stand alone
All by myself, I stand alone
All by myself, I stand alone
If I Didn't Have You
Cornwall:
I'd be rocking with the dinos
Swinging with the rhinos
I'd re-dragonize this cave in a minute
"Cornwall," they would sing
'Cause I would be the dragon king
I would love this world without you in it
If I didn't have you!
Devon:
If you didn't have me?
Cornwall:
If I didn't have you!
Devon:
Well, how about if I didn't have you?
Oh, what I could be if there was only me
Oh, what I'd do if I didn't have you
Kayley:
Stop bickering and get your act together.
Devon:
"Act?" Did someone say "act?" I can act.
If only I had separate parts
My career would be the arts
I'd be the star of Camelot
You'd be the half that the whole world forgot!
If I didn't have you!
Cornwall:
I should be so lucky!
Devon:
If I didn't have you!
Cornwall:
Oh, wait, you'd be dead!
Oh, what I could be if there was only me
Oh, what I'd do if I didn't have you
Oh, what I'd do if I didn't have you
Devon:
Trapped, trapped.
Cornwall:
Stuck here with you for 500 years!
Devon:
Oh, dear, it's learned to count.
Cornwall:
If you'd got me a good lawyer, I would've split 400 years ago.
Devon:
Now, listen here, pal. I didn't come here to be insulted!
Cornwall:
Oh? Well, where do you usually go?
Devon:
I'd be a fire-breathing lizard!
Cornwall:
I'd be one high-flying wizard!
Devon:
You'd be nothing without me! You'd be extinct, you'd cease to be!
Cornwall:
I'm so tired of your nagging!
Devon:
And I'm so tired of your bragging!
Cornwall:
Without me, you'd have no brain.
Devon:
With which to think!
(Devon and Cornwall's verses interchanged)
I would love this world without you in it
If I didn't have you! (If I didn't have you!)
If I didn't have you! (If I didn't have you!)
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
Devon:
This way. Let me lead!
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
Cornwall:
No, this way, Twinkle-Toes!
Life could be so sweet if these were both my feet!
What I'd do if I didn't have you!
Cornwall:
I got you, babe!
Oh, what I'd do if I didn't have you!
Oh, if I didn't,
Oh, if I didn't,
Have you!
Cornwall:
Thank you very much!
Devon:
Thank you very much!
Cornwall:
Thank you!
Devon:
Devon has left the building!
Cornwall:
You've never sung before, have you, man?
Looking Through Your Eyes
Garrett:
Look at the sky, tell me, what do you see
Just close your eyes and describe it to me
The heavens are sparkling with starlight tonight
That's what I see through your eyes
Kayley:
I see the heavens each time that you smile
I hear your heartbeat just go on for miles
And suddenly I know why life is worthwhile
That's what I see through your eyes
That's what I see through your eyes
Here in the night, I see the sun
Here in the dark, our two hearts are one
It's out of our hands, we can't stop what we have begun
And love just took me by surprise
Looking through your eyes
I see a night I wish could last forever
I see a world we're meant to see together
And it is so much more than I remember
Garrett:
More than I remember
Kayley:
More than I have known
Here in the night, I see the sun
Here in the dark, our two hearts are one
Its out of our hands, we can't stop what we have begun
And love just took me by surprise
Looking through your eyes
Looking through your eyes
