The Madrigal's Army

The Madrigal’s Army

The Madrigal’s Army is coming to town, they say that it will be here soon

fleet galleons will port around about ten, though it may just be closer to noon

The Madrigal’s Army is as wide as it’s long, and it stretches from here to over there

it’s talked about frequently, sometime in song, one that may be triangular or square

The Madrigal’s Army makes a fine display, and the Madrigal stands tall and strong

“I wear my shoes on both feet” he would say, “Though my socks sometimes just stay on one”

The Madrigal’s Army would have no foe were it not for that motley crew ...

the Teaser of the Clutch ... his General, Whipnash ... and his Captain, Justbut the Blue

The Madrigal’s Army stands forthright and bold, the Teaser’s is scowly and growls

yet neither is as good or as bad as they seem, in fact both of them shout rather loud

The Madrigal’s Army, the Teaser’s wild horde, both were friends once in days long afar

but a lady of means came between them it seems, with the secret she kept in a jar

The Madrigal’s Army brought caution to bear, with alertness and other such stuff

yet a doing was brewing with plans of affray, by the Teaser of the Clutch

The Madrigal’s Army, Teaser’s own crew, traded insults, pulled faces, and more

it goes on to this day, and the wise ones will say “No one seems to be keeping the score”

The Madrigal’s Army does such a fine job, it is said in the news every day

yet the Teaser is equal to all he confronts, whatever will stand in his way

The Madrigal’s Army is coming to town, followed soon by that motley crew

we will stand and behold while the story unfolds, for that is what we are meant to do.
