Lyrics

Sung by Janis Goblin

We've got a baby, we can feast!
We can dine three days at least.
Baby blood and baby bones,
Baby butter for the baby scones.

Little baby feets, little baby toes.
Every one of us wants the nose.
Baby's had such very bad luck.
Now into baby, we will tuck.

Eat the baby, add some salt,
Bay leaves, barley, powdered malt.
Now baby's salted, she's a treat.
Her destiny, it's time to meet.

Baby we need,
Baby we feed,
Eat with our teeth,
Better than beef.

Baby so soft,
Carried aloft.
Big brown eyes,
Caramelise!

He's the Goblin King,
Yes, the Goblin King.
He's not a myth, he's an actual thing.
Here's the King, here's the King,
Here's the King, here's the King Goblin.

We love the King, we sing ding-a-ling.
And we love his chin when it's wobbling.
He likes to dine on coincidence.
It fills him, builds him up and hence,

He can eat,
He can eat,

Five hundred puppies with golden fur,
Orphan boys with jet-black hair,
Circus clowns with a red balloon,
(He can eat me, he makes me swoon!)
A banquet for a king on high,

Oh little baby, oh little baby,
Say goodbye!

Sung by the Fifteenth Doctor and Ruby Sunday

(The Doctor):

'Cause the Goblin King,
Oh, the Goblin King,
It's so good to meet you,
You great big thing.
I can see you're having a fun day,
Meet my friend, she's Ruby Sunday!

(Ruby):

It's good to meet you,
Good to greet you.
Good to say "How diddly-deet you".
It's my birthday, my oh my.
I'm fifty miles up in the sky.
But goblins you can go to hell,
'Cause you're not eating Lulubelle.

(The Doctor):

Me and Rubes, we got just one hope,
(Aha) If I have understood that rope.
'Cause stuck up there where things got hot,
I think I found the master knot.
The master knot has been undone,
That's when we start having fun!
