Poor Merlin's got one ball on fire
a spell made by his own hand
the counter spell eludes him
this is not what he had planned!
He's feeling mighty angry
also in a lot of pain,
if he doesn't find that counter spell
this will surely end his reign.
For this is Merlin's special ball
through it the future he did tell,
rubbing it oh so gently
and with the coming it did swell!
But now he's lost that feeling
with fears he'll never come again,
what can a poor magician do
for he's feeling this great strain.
Oh yes there is his trusty staff
that stands so proud and tall,
within its beam the answer's there
giving Merlin back his ball.
The smile will come back to his face
when that fire is put out
that's when he'll give the Merlin missus
a grand almighty clout!
For this was really all her fault
this jealousy of Gwenevere,
she tricked Merlin into making this spell
halting his actions most severe.
