Merlin gives Young Arthur a lesson in how to live life.

lyrics

Merlin:
Come with me child, a-way from this war…
The magical world has so much in store for you!
Learning to walk involves raising your head…
Focussing forward and leaving the dead be-hind!

Young Arthur:
How does the sun… travel to the West?

Merlin:
It doesn’t move at all! It’s the world that just won’t rest!

Merlin
Now, see how the flower breaks through the soil.
It does it it-self! It doesn’t use oil to push…
It focusses forward and raises its head…
It drives with its spirit… and leaves the dead be-hind!

Young Arthur:
How does it know… where it should grow?
Merlin:
It senses Nature’s flow… and pushes itself to go…on…
To the hilt! To the hilt!

Young Arthur:
To the hilt?

Merlin:
To the hilt!
Like this, y’all:
[He hambones with Arthur]

Merlin:
It’s the same with all men, it’s our lot, don’t you know…
In war, debt or love… there’s only one way to go…

Young Arthur:
To the hilt?

Merlin:
Yes! To the hilt! Where do we go?

Young Arthur and Merlin Together:
To the hilt! To the hilt!
To the hilt! To… the… hilt!
