Camelot (The 2023 Broadway Cast Recording)
Fie on Goodness
I'm sick of goodness!
Things are changing too fast!
Fie on goodness!
Fie!
Fie on goodness, fie!
Fie on goodness, fie
Two years of kindness to your neighbor
Making sure that the meek are treated well
Two years of philanthropic labor
Derrydown dell
Gad, but it's hell!
Oh, fie on goodness, fie!
Fie, fie, fie!
It's been depressing all the way, derrydown (derrydown)
And getting glummer every day, derrydown (derrydown)
But to burn a little town
Or slay a dozen men
Anything to laugh again
Oh, fie on goodness, fie!
Fie, fie, fie, fie, fie!
When I think of the rollicking pleasures that earlier filled my life
Lolly lo, lolly lo
Like the night I beheaded a man who was beating his naked wife
Lolly lo, lolly lo
I can still hear the widow say (oh)
Never moving from where she lay (ah)
"Tell me what can I do
I beg, sir, of you
Your kindness to repay?" (Oh)
Fie on goodness, fie!
Fie on goodness, fie
Lechery and vice have been arrested (arrested)
Not a maiden is evermore in threat (well)
Virgins can wander unmolested (unmolested)
Lolly lo let
Gad, it's a sweat
Fie on goodness, fie
Fie, fie, fie, fie, fie!
How we roared and brawled in Scotland
Not a law was e'er obeyed (yeah)
And when wooing called in Scotland (yeah)
We'd grab any passing maid
Oh, my heart is still in Scotland
Where the lasses woo the best
Yes, my heart is still in Scotland (yeah)
Stroking someone's bonny -
Yes, goddammit!
Fie on Scotland, fie
Fie, fie, fie!
There's not a folly to deplore, derrydown (derrydown)
Confession Sunday is a bore, derrydown (derrydown)
But to spend a tortured evening
Staring at the floor
Guilty and alive once more
Oh, fie on virtue, fie
Fie on mercy, fie
Fie on justice
Fie on goodness
Fie, fie, fie, fie, fie!
Things are changing too fast!
Fie on goodness!
Fie!
Fie on goodness, fie!
Fie on goodness, fie
Two years of kindness to your neighbor
Making sure that the meek are treated well
Two years of philanthropic labor
Derrydown dell
Gad, but it's hell!
Oh, fie on goodness, fie!
Fie, fie, fie!
It's been depressing all the way, derrydown (derrydown)
And getting glummer every day, derrydown (derrydown)
But to burn a little town
Or slay a dozen men
Anything to laugh again
Oh, fie on goodness, fie!
Fie, fie, fie, fie, fie!
When I think of the rollicking pleasures that earlier filled my life
Lolly lo, lolly lo
Like the night I beheaded a man who was beating his naked wife
Lolly lo, lolly lo
I can still hear the widow say (oh)
Never moving from where she lay (ah)

Fie on goodness, fie!
Fie on goodness, fie
Lechery and vice have been arrested (arrested)

Fie on mercy, fie
Fie on justice
Fie on goodness
Fie, fie, fie, fie, fie!
