The Musketeers versuri

Versuri The Marx Brothers – The Musketeers lyrics

Unless we tell you who we are, you’ll never guess
We’re not Napoleon or da Vinci
A lot of people think we are, but nonetheless
We’re not Napoleon or da Vinci
We’re not even Washington or Lincoln
Jefferson or Alexander Carr
You’d be wrong whoever you begin on
So we’ll let you in on who we are
So stand by, unseen listeners

We’re four of the three musketeers
We’ve been together for years
Eenie, meenie, minee, (HONK!)
Moe is the guy with the ears

We live by the sword, by the sea, by the way
And we fight day and night, and we sleep night and day
My country ‘tis of thee
Land of the light wines and beers

We’re cheered from Des Moines to Algiers
Each time our motto appears
It’s one for all and two for five
We’re four of the three musketeers

When the Queen needs recreation and she strolls along the path
Where are we? Right by her side
When she’s filled with jubilation or consumed with raging wrath
Where are we? Right by her side
We’ve sworn that we’d shield and protect her
We’re her guardsmen, true and tried
When she gets up in the morning and she slips into her bath
Where are we? Far from the old folks at home

We’re four of the three musketeers
We’ve been together for years
Athos, Pathos, Mathos, (HONK!)
Four of the three musketeers

We fight for the King, for the Queen, for the Jack
And we’re first at the front when the front’s at the back
Three cheers for Richelieu
Here’s how we give him the cheers (HONK HONK!)

The foe trembles each time it hears
This motto ring in its ears
It’s one for all and two for five
We’re four of the three musketeers
