I've got the greatest name for you
The greatest name! Just listen. (sung)
Melisande!
I don't like it
That's because you don't know anything about her. But when I
Tell you who she was... Lady, when I tell you who she was...
Who?
Why, she was the most beautiful woman
She was the beautiful wife of King Hamlet
Ever hear of him?
Go on, Starbuck. Go on
Well...
(Sung)
Now once upon a time, so they tell us
Somewhere beneath the mountains of Mexico
There dwelt a royal fella, King Hamlet
Who had a turtledove and he loved her so
Her name was Melisande, and I tell you
That lady was as pretty as he could be
But Melisande was bothered, so Hamlet starts to plead
"Tell me what you need,"
And Melisande whispers, "I've got me a dream
I've always wanted a golden fleece
And I think I will die
Unless it is mine."
"Great God Almighty," says Hamlet, "I sympathize
Great God Almighty, you take and you dry your eyes
I'm gonna get you whatever you ask of me
I'm gonna get you the goldenest fleece in the world!"
So he gets a bunch of fellas together
And out into the ocean away they go
And after they have traveled for ages
They come upon the place where the ogres grow
And sure enough, they spy 'em, a giant
A-sittin' there a-guardin' this golden fleece
And Hamlet says, "I warn you, you best give that to me
Do it peaceably, my Melisande needs it
She's got her a dream
She's always wanted a golden fleece
And I'm ready to die
For that piece of twine!"
"Great God Almighty!"
The giant, he raves and swears
"Great God Almighty, you better go say your prayers
I'm gonna slice you and put you into the stew
I'm gonna cook youโ"
And both of them started to fight
And when he come back, all torn and bleeding, he took
That fleece of gold and he laid it down at her pretty
White feet. And she picked up that fur piece and wrapped
It around her pink naked shoulders, and she said...
I had me a dream
I always wanted this golden fleece
And now that it is mine
I'll never be cold no more
Never be cold no more
Melisande
Melisande
What a woman
What a name
The greatest name! Just listen. (sung)
