Chonny Jash
The King, The Fool & The Poison
[Verse 1; the Witch Sisters]
Here comes the boy
Green-cloaked and coy; nobility’s envoy
The Hero of Time (or so they call him)
But he’s just a child? Now, that doesn’t sound right!
Sister, it seems
(What parallels we see)
These children – like we – are twined in destiny
Two boys borne of green
(Though the forest abandoned thee)
One chose to lead
One chose fury

[Chorus 1; the Witch Sisters]
You’ll have to fight, you’ll have to strive
(Through ocean, snow and desert)
You’ll have to try to stay alive
(Although you know that you’re a)
You’re a child of thе forest
He’s a corpse of thе same
(What anguish! What shame!)

Look at the sky, the end is nigh
(The Moon counts down with its gaze)
Will you survive? Will you beat time?
(And so, I hope that you)
Count the days
[Verse 2; the Monkey Brothers]
Help us! Please, help us!
She’s injured! She’s helpless!
She’s lost and she’s hurt!
She needs you! We heard!
Baba Hag in Woods of Mystery

Help us! Please, help us!
That Skull Kid! He’s treacherous!
He played a mean trick!
She needs some help, quick!
Kotake make use of witchery

[Pre-Chorus; The Monkey Brothers]
We watch you close
You have strange powers that tower above those
And, so

[Chorus 2; the Monkey Brothers]
Please, we Monkey Three beg you to bring these sister witches peace
Oh, please! We can be guides through the trees
And you be the light that brightens this swamp’s mysteries
Please! Please, oh, please, won’t you

[Verse 3; the Monkey Brothers]
Help us! Please, help us!
We didn’t steal the Princess!
We just want to help!
We just want safe land!
Brother bring her to the Temple
Help us! Please, help us!
We’re feeble! We’re helpless!
The King’s gone mad!
Please help him! We can’t!
Brother leave then King go mental

[Pre-Chorus; the Monkey Brothers]
You wield such strength
We beg you to lend it to liberate our friends
So, then

[Chorus 2; the Monkey Brothers & the Deku King]
Please, we Monkey Three humbly beseech you, child cloaked in green
Oh, please! We swear on the Great Deku Tree!
She must be freed before our Brother’s freed
Oh, please, make him see!

Seize!

Please! Green! See the truth through deceit!

[Verse 4; the Deku King, the Deku Butler & the monkey]
Awake, fool! Open your eyes!
The Guardsmen and I see through your lies
You entered as two, but left Woodfall as one
So, tell me, scum! Where has the Princess gone!?
Please, Sir, I beg you to stay calm
The Kingdom is at stake

[Verse 5; the Deku King, the Deku Butler & the monkey]
I said awake, fool!
Tell me the truth
If you tell it swift, your death will follow suit
I’ve no more patience for traitorous silence
Like Koume’s flames, my rage burns violent!

We’ve heard the chanting of old Gods
Why can’t you do the same?
Puffing and panting like a toddler, when Odolwa is calling your name!

[Chorus 3; the Deku King]
So, you, what will it be?
Hanged? Stoned? Burned or diseased?
So, fool, how will you die?
Poison? Bludgeon? Rope, rock or fire?

[Verse 6; the Deku King, the Deku Butler & the monkey]
Awake, fool!
Take a look around!
Your country condemns you! Betrayal rings loud!
That Sonata is known by none but my family
(There is the proof!)
You brought this calamity!

Please, Sir, this poison, it runs deep
Far deeper than me
(Far deeper than he)

[Verse 7; the Deku King, the Deku Butler & the monkey]
Awake, please! I’m on my knees!
Come to your senses! I just want peace...
What do you get from tormenting me?
I just want my family!

Please, Sir, she might still yet be safe, but our time is running out
Poison is seeping in your heart, and the bleeding, it is sure to spout!

[Chorus 3; the Deku King, the Deku Butler & the monkey]
So, you, what will it be?
Truth? Lies? Faith or deceit?
So, fool, just how will you die?
Loved? Loathed? Hated or kind?

Hey, you, what will it be?
(Oh, please, you must awaken, our home will be forsaken)
Hey, fool, how will you die?
(Oh, please, you must not falter, do not fall to Odolwa)

[Verse 8; the Deku Butler & the monkey]
He be the fool who cannot keep his cool when a friend of the family lends a helping hand
He’s just a father, not a saint, nor martyr
Please, child in green, won’t you save our land?
Please make it green, oh, we know you can

[Outro; the Deku Butler]
Please, young man, please, you who put my son to ease
We humbly beseech your hand
