The Lyrics
Aimed William Tell so true,
In a straight line,
Toward his son's head the arrow flew.
It was flyin',
Yeah, it was flyin.
And it hit the apple,
Then the juice ran down
The face of the laddie,
Who shat his pants; that juice ran to ground.
Aimed William Tell so true--
In a straight line,
Straight line.
Straight it flew,
Straight it flew,
Straight it flew,
Straight it flew--then, KAPOW!
Hit the fruit square
"I'd rather," said he,
"Have used my Frau. . .
Missed! Dear me!"
Will Tell won't aim so true,
Maybe, next time.
[fade on sound of arrow whizzing through the air]
In a straight line,
Toward his son's head the arrow flew.
It was flyin',
Yeah, it was flyin.
And it hit the apple,
Then the juice ran down
The face of the laddie,
Who shat his pants; that juice ran to ground.
Aimed William Tell so true--
In a straight line,
Straight line.
Straight it flew,
Straight it flew,
Straight it flew,
Straight it flew--then, KAPOW!
Hit the fruit square
"I'd rather," said he,
"Have used my Frau. . .
Missed! Dear me!"
Will Tell won't aim so true,
Maybe, next time.
[fade on sound of arrow whizzing through the air]
