Pantagruel’s Nativity

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Kerry Minnear] How can I laugh or cry When my mind is sorely torn? Badabec had to die Fair Pantagruel is born Shall I weep, yes, for why? Then laugh and show my scorn [Verse 2: Kerry Minnear] Born with a strength untold Foreseen to have great age Set in Gargantuan mould Joyful laugh, yet quick to rage Princely wisdom, habits bold Power, glory, lauded sage [Instrumental Break 1:38–2:29] [Bridge: Derek Shulman] Pantagruel born—the earth was dry and burning In Paradise—dear Badabec prays for him Pantagruel born—the earth was dry and burning In Paradise—dear Badabec prays for him [Instrumental Break 3:08–4:55] [Guitar Solo] [Bridge: Derek Shulman] Pantagruel born—the earth was dry and burning In Paradise—dear Badabec prays for him [Verse 1: Kerry Minnear] How can I laugh or cry When my mind is sorely torn? Badabec had to die Fair Pantagruel is born Shall I weep, yes, for why? Then laugh and show my scorn
