Lyrics

There once was a man who loved a woman She was the one he slew a dragon for They say that nobody ever loved as much as he-ee But me-ee I love you more. (BABE: Tell me!) And there once was a man who loved a woman She was the one he gave his kingdom for They say that nobody ever loved as much as he-ee But me-ee I love you more My love is a giant, fierce and defiant But how can I prove it to you? Ain't got no kingdom or dragon To back up my braggin' How can I show what I would do? I only know there once was a man Who loved a woman She was the one he ate the apple for They say that nobody ever loved as much as he-ee But me-ee, I love you more BABE: There once was a woman who loved a man He was the one that she took poison for They say that nobody ever loved as much as she-ee But me-ee, I love you more And there once was a woman who loved a man, He was the one she swam the channel for They say that nobody ever loved as much as she-ee But me-ee, I love you more. My love's meteoric, it's merely historic A whirlwind, a cyclone on wheels It rocks my whole solar plexus, It's bigger than Texas I just can't tell you how it feels I only know there once was a woman Who loved a man Loved him enough to cause the Trojan War They say that nobody ever loved as much as she-ee But me-ee, I love you more! more! more! more! More than a hangman loves his rope More than a dopefiend loves his dope More than an Injun loves his scalps More than a yodeler loves his alps More More More more more! SID: There once was a man who loved a woman BABE: there once was a woman who loved a man SID: She was the one he slew the dragon for BABE: He was the one that she took poison for SID // BABE: They say that nobody ever loved as much as he-ee // she-ee BOTH: But me-ee, I love you more! But me-ee-ee-ee-ee! I love you more!
