The Black Dinner

(Come in, to the black dinner)
(Oh Come in, to the black dinner)

There is a story of a man's black soul
(Come in)
Ambition driven, adviser to the Crown
(To the black dinner)
Now there were three riders, and up the Royal Mile they rode
(Oh come in)
Two of them Douglas boys, seen as rivals to the throne
(To the black dinner)
He said come fest with me my child, Come feast, yeh

Now it's late in the evening, when they dined in the Great Hall
(Come in)
The feast was plentiful, as they prepared the black Bull
(To the black dinner)
It's head was removed as they cheered
Bring it in, to the black dinner

The black Bull's head stopped the dinner in it's tracks
(Come in)
Signalled by the gesture, someone cried out for an axe
(To the black dinner)
As the whole room grew frenzied, so blinded by his lies
(Oh come in)
Now the two boys lie beheaded, court adjourned, trivialised
(To the black dinner)
A gruesome defeat for a child

(Come in, to the black dinner)
So let it be know of the dangers when they cry
(Oh Come in, to the black dinner)

Hear the servants crying
(Come in, to the black dinner)
(Oh Come in, to the black dinner)
(Come in, to the black dinner)
(Oh Come in, to the black dinner)
