Ballad of the PholidotaI've been to many foreign shores
C Am C
But of all I saw across the seas
G Am
One creature stood most strange of all
C Am C
The beast called the pangolin!
Am Em Am
She'd scales for a skin, so
Am C
Her foes could never win-oh,
G Am
One creature stood most strange of all
Am C
And they called her Pangolin, o!

I've been to many foreign shores
But of all I saw across the seas
One creature stood most strange of all
The beast called the pangolin!
She'd scales for a skin, so
Her foes could never win-oh,
One creature stood most strange of all
And they called her Pangolin, o!
She'd armour all along her back
And claws so sharp and tail so strong
She stood there like a faery knight
Thus her tale does begin..
She'd scales for a skin, so
Her foes could never win-oh,
She stood there like a faery knight
And they called her Pangolin, o!
Well first she fought the termite horde
Went marching to their fortress grand
She smote their walls with claws like steel
And slew them all within!
She'd scales for a skin, so
Her foes could never win-oh,
She smote their walls with claws like steel
And they called her Pangolin, o!
Then next a lion roared at her
But she stood firm and she held fast,
She curled up in her armour bold
And he could not get in!
She'd scales for a skin, so
Her foes could never win-oh,
She curled up in her armour bold
And they called her Pangolin, o!
Yet as all heroes, she did fall
When grasping giants she did meet
The giants boiled her in a pot
To serve her to their kin!
She'd scales for a skin, so
Her foes could never win-oh,
Yet giants boiled her in a pot
And they called her Pangolin, o!
But there are more of these brave knights,
That we should aid and honour true,
So raise a glass and raise your voice
For the wond'rous pangolin!
She'd scales for a skin, so
Her foes could never win-oh,
So raise a glass and raise your voice
And call her Pangolin, o!
She'd scales for a skin, so
Her foes could never win-oh,
So raise a glass and raise your voice
And call her Pangolin, o!Chords:
