And all these stupid silly songs
Keep trying to catch your ear
I'm trying desperately
It's just so hard to persevereAnd even if you listened
I never had to much to say
Cause its the same old song
I'm written for the dayShelter me oh genius words
Just give me strength
Just to pen these things
And give me peace to well her wingsAnd carry on, oh carry on
All you minstrels of the world
We will catch our ladies ear
We will win for us the girlAll these minstrels through the ages
That is really all we are
Simply singing for the girl
That makes us try so very hardTo craft the perfect limerick
To wield unending woe
To write such silly songs
And the different never knowShelter me oh genius words
Just give me strength
Just to pen these things
And give me peace to well her wingsAnd carry on, oh carry on
All you minstrels of the world
We will catch our ladies ear
We will win for us the girlAnd I'll hold on to the dream
Of this beggar's plea and optimistic fantasy
Just hold the hand and drop the knee
You're facing love
You're embracing melodyShelter me oh genius words
Just give me strength
Just to pen these things
And give me peace to well her wings
And carry on, oh carry on
All you minstrels of the world
We will catch our ladies ear
We will win for us the girlAnd oh carry on all you minstrels of the world
We will catch our ladies ear
We will win for us the girl
