King Herod And The Cock

from Carbuncular Christmas! by Paul Carbuncle

/

lyrics

There was a star in David’s land,
In David’s land appeared,
And in King Herod’s chamber
So bright it did shine there.

The wise men they soon spied it
And they told the king on high
That a princely babe was born that night
No king may ever destroy.

“If this be true,” King Herod said,
“What ye have told to me,
This roasted cock that’s in the dish
Shall crow full loud and free!”

O the roasted cock then feathered up
By the work of God’s own hand,
And he did crow full loud and free
In the dish where he did stand.
