Characters singing

Lyrics

Austin: Knights are tough, and knights are brave.

Tasha: Knights have shields that they can wave.

Austin: Knights aren't scared and knights don't fuss.

Tasha: So if you want a knight...

Austin and Tasha: Don't call us!

Tasha: There are many things that I can do: cast a spell with a tweedily-doo.

Austin: Fly around in a loop-dee-loop.

Tasha: Wave my wand and say "boo-hoo!".

Austin: There are many things that I have done: grab some treasure just for fun.

Tasha: Snag some sneakers for a run.

Austin: Swipe some juice and a cinnamon bun!

Tasha: But when it comes to daring adventures, who knows where to begin?

Austin: When it comes to heroic rescues.....

Tasha: Our résumés are quite thin!

Both: We're not knights. That's right! We're not knights. That's right! We've got nerves and limitations, fears and frights. We're not knights! We're not knights. That's right.

Austin: There are many things I will not do: try to swipe a giant shoe.

Tasha: Race a shark in a small canoe.

Austin: Wash a troll's hair with shampoo.

Tasha: There are many things I will not try: looking ogres in the eye.

Austin: Wearing sweaters in July.

Tasha: Liverwurst on a marble rye!

Austin: And when it's time for a daring challenge, we're not a qualifying team.

Tasha: When it comes to not-so-nice dragons.....

Both: We want to run and scream! We're not knights. That's right! We're not knights. That's right! We've got nerves and limitations, fears and frights. We're not knights! We're not knights. That's right!
