about

Arthur, suddenly finding himself King of England, asks Merlin, "But what exactly am I to do?" Merlin laughs, "Save the world!"

lyrics

Arthur: But what exactly am I to do?

Merlin: Save the world! Save the world! Save the world… from Death!

Young Arthur: How precisely?

Merlin: You begin by finding good men who will follow your lead.
Then you pass the laws helping them to succeed.
Avoid the ugliness of those who feed on their greed
And let each dream of goodness take its seed.
Guarding Mother Nature must be number one,
For what would be our future if she be undone?
The oceans and the forests must be kept pristine
As the whole body-collective must be pure and clean, you see?
To save the world! Save the world! Save the world… from Death!

Young Arthur: You mean like banning plastic and recycle what we’ve got?

Merlin: That’s the spirit, boy, now what else have you got?

Young Arthur: Punish all destruction of wilderness reserves?

Merlin: Yes, because it’s part of us and the Mother whom we serve!

Young Arthur: What about the banning of all poisons and their waste?

Merlin: You better hurry up, my son! Let us make haste!

Young Arthur: Let’s help out the have-nots by taxing those who do…

Merlin: You know I like this king, and I think he’s going to…
He just might be able to… He just might… be able to…

Together: Save the world! Save the world! Save the world… from…

Merlin: [spoken] Death!
