Gypsies in the Palace - Jimmy Buffett, Frey, Jennings

    "In days of old, when knights were bold,
    And journeyed from their castles,
    Trusty men were left behind,
    Knights needed not the hassles.
    They helped themselves to pig and peach,
    And drank from King's own chalice.
    Oh, it was a stirring sight
    These gypsies in the palace."

    "And as I told my friend Zachary Richard, when you leave home, some things never change."

    "Hit it!"

    So long boss, knock 'em dead, don't you worry 'bout a thing
    I wish that we could come along, we'd love to hear you sing
    The limo's here, your bags are packed
    The list is by the phone
    Me and Snake will watch your place, treat it like our own

    Look at all this liquor
    Look at all this food
    It's only gonna go to waste
    We're not really being rude
    But the good stuff's in his closet, I swear he wouldn't mind
    Hell we'll just shoot the lock off, I do it all the time

    We're gypsies in the palace, He's left us here alone
    The Order of the Sleepless Knights
    Will now assume the throne
    We ain't got no money, we ain't got no right
    But we're gypsies in the palace, we got it all tonight

    There's damsels in distress up there
    And we got all this beer
    We'll free them from their condos
    Bring 'em over here
    We'll show them his gold records
    Play his music loud
    We'll party just like Bubba does
    We'll do the old man proud

    We're gypsies in the palace, there ain't no wrong or right
    We're gypsies in the palace, and a' goin' wild tonight

    He's the greatest guy to work for, man he's really cool
    Hey Snake this party's gettin' dull
    Throw someone in the pool
    Let's all take our clothes off and form a conga line
    Watch out for that broken glass, hey Snake we need more wine

    We're gypsies in the palace, there ain't no wrong or right
    We're gypsies in the palace, and we're raisin' hell tonight

    Hi there boss, what's goin' on
    You say you're coming WHEN?
    I'll send Snake out to pick you up tomorrow night at ten,
    OKAY!
    Everybody outta here, this joint is closin' down
    We gotta find someone to clean this up
    He's comin' back to town

    Hi there boss we waxed your car
    We raked and mowed your lawn
    We couldn't find enough to do
    In the short time you were gone
    Man it sure is peaceful here, you've really got it all
    And if we ever hit the road again, give me and Snake a call

    We're gypsies in the palace, he's left us here alone
    The Order of the Sleepless Knights
    Will now assume the throne
    We ain't got no money, we ain't got no right
    But we're gypsies in the palace, we got it all tonight
