Robin Hood and His Merry Band

walking along 
the forest floor
into the woods
to find real Robin Hoods

with their bows in hand
and alms for the poor
backed up 
by their yea saying merry band

the light comes true
between the rows of trees
only to expose 
their padded knees

in the very very back
with coin in a sack
stand the three Mouseketeers
with a man being tortured on a rack

screaming one for all and all for one

while the merry band plays
loved Disney chants 
and the Robin Hoods 
zip up their pants
