Camelot Lyrics

Camelot

 Broadway Cast

 

 -title song from the 1960 Broadway musical

 -Words by Alan Jay Lerner and Music by Frederick Loewe

 

 Spoken

 BRIt's true, it's true, the crown has made it clear

 BRThe climate must be perfect all year

 BR

 BR

 BRA law was made a distant moon ago here

 BRJuly and August cannot be too hot

 BRAnd there's a legal limit to the snow here

 BRIn Camelot

 BR

 BRThe winter is forbidden till December

 BRAnd exits March the second on the dot

 BRBy order summer lingers through September

 BRIn Camelot

 BR

 BRCamelot, Camelot

 BRI know it sounds a bit bizarre

 BRBut in Camelot, Camelot

 BRThat's how conditions are

 BR

 BRThe rain may never fall till after sundown

 BRBy eight the morning fog must disappear

 BRIn short, there's simply not a more congenial spot

 BRFor happy ever-aftering than here in Camelot

 BR

 BR

 INSTRUMENTAL interlude

 BR

 BRCamelot, Camelot

 BRI know it gives a person pause

 BRBut in Camelot, Camelot

 BRThose are the legal laws

 BR

 BRThe snow may never slush upon the hillside

 BRBy nine PM the moonlight must appear

 BRIn short, there's simply not a more congenial spot

 BRFor happy ever-aftering than here in Camelot
