Sir Galla had a dreadful night
Around the round card table
He owed Sir Lance a lot of gold –
To pay he was unable

They found Sir Galla’s body dumped
Behind the old Merle Inn
And apprehended Lance as he
Was leaving for Berlin

They took him in for questioning
And found he had no aliba
Ballistics checked his pistol and
They found it was X-calibre

Judge Arthur King declared, “Sir Lance,
On knights you cannot trample
We’re living amid evil times
I must set an example

The round card table is disgraced
You have betrayed your charter
This court does hereby sentence you
To hang with your own garter.”
