Eric Idle
His Name Is Lancelot
[HERBERT]
Lancelot, you might as well just 'fess up
Maybe you're a different kind of guy
Move aside your scabbard
For underneath your tabard
There is waiting to escape
A butterfly!

[MEN]
His
Name
Is
Lancelot, and in tight pants a lot
He likes to dance a lot
You know you do!

[LANCELOT, spoken]
I do?

[MEN]
So just say thanks a lot
And try romance, it's hot!
Let's find out who's really you

His name is Lancelot
He visits France a lot
He likes to dance a lot
And dream...
No one would ever know
That this outrageous pro
Bats for the other team
[HERBERT]
You're a knight who really likes his night life
And by day you really like to play
You can all find him
Pumping at the gym
At the Camelot YMCA!

[MEN & WOMEN]
His name is Lancelot (la-la)
Just watch him dance a lot (la-la)
He doesn't care what people say (la, la, la)

[LANCELOT, spoken]
No way!

[MEN & WOMEN]
For when he starts to dance (la-la)
Just grab your underpants (la-la)

[HERBERT]
He can finally come out and say that
He is G-A-Y!

[MEN]
M-C-A!
He's gay!
[LANCELOT, spoken]
Okay!
