| Xena: | Warlord, scoundrel I am no more
Since you came knocking on my door |
| Gabrielle: | At home I'll stay, no more, no more!
I'm glad I came knocking on your door Adventure, danger, please for me! As long as I don't scrape my knee. |
| Xena: | Worry not about your knee, your knee,
You're safe as long as you're with me. |
| Joxer: | Xena, Xena! Come quick, come quick!
A village, in trouble from this Callisto chick! |
| Xena: | Argo will get us there very fast
But still the trip will last and last We'll have two days til we arrive |
| Gabrielle: | But can the villagers there survive? |
| Xena: | They shouldn't, couldn't, mustn't die.
Yaaaaaa! Yaaaaaa! We must fly! |
| Gabrielle: | Fly we must. Of course, of course,
But how much longer til I'm off this horse! |
| Xena: | The village Trebor, we're not too late
But the danger here is far too great! Wait in the country, I'll be quick. I'll tear apart this Callisto chick! |
| Gabrielle: | OK I'll wait, but don't be long.
I think I hear Joxer singing a song! |
| Callisto: | Bloodshed, pain, fear and sufferin'.
Come fall you'll all be turkey stuffin'. |
| Xena: | So you're Callisto, what's your gripe? |
| Callisto: | You made me mean and full of strife! |
| Xena: | Run, all of you! Don't stop to toil.
Callisto will make your town turmoil. |
| Gabrielle: | I can wait no more. No more, no more!
I'm going to help her with this chore. |
| Joxer: | Fear not Gabrielle, you'll be safe with me.
We'll never wind up hanging from a tree! |
| Xena: | Yaaaaaa! Yaaaaaa! Li-li-li-liiiii! |
| Callisto: | You're good, you're good, now let me see...
Now I know how to ring your bell. I've got your precious Gabrielle! |
| *COMMERCIAL BREAK, COMMERCIAL BREAK
HOW LONG WILL THESE DUMB ADS TAKE?* | |
| Xena: | Not wise Callisto to tie her to a stake. |
| Gabrielle: | May I suggest a course to take? |
| Callisto: | No way! |
| Xena: | No way! |
| Callisto: | Your time is up. Men, light the fire!
Xena, no thank-you for this funeral pyre? |
| Joxer: | How much longer til we die? |
| Gabrielle: | Shut up Joxer! We won't die.
Not as long as Xena can move her eye- |
| Xena: | brow-beaten Callisto, I'll never be.
I have a little trick up my sleeve. |
| Callisto: | Aaaaaaahhhhhh! |
| Xena: | So sorry Callisto, you should watch where you stand.
You're sinking fast and deep into quicksand! |
| Joxer: | Hurray! Hurray! You've saved the day!
Again I say, Hurray! Hurray! |
| Villager: | Xena, Xena! Thank you much.
You've saved our lives, our town, and such. |
| Xena: | Don't mention it, we'll be on our way
Your village is safe yet another day. |
| Gabrielle: | My friend, you're great. I have to say,
I would not have you any other way. |
| Xena: | I'm hungry now, yes I am,
Let's have green eggs and ham, oh man! |
| Gabrielle: | Xena! We cannot cook green eggs and ham,
We haven't got a frying pan! |
| THE END | |
