Yes, we must be protocoligorically correct
Good form must never suffer from neglect
The rules and regulations we respect
Must be treated circumspect
Else the kingdom will be wrecked
We've a system to protect
Checked and double checked
And protocoligorically correct
When its army is battered and broken
And back to its borders it crawls
To what clings a tottering kingdom
If not to its protocols?
And when the treasure is tapped of its treasures
Are the tapestries stripped from the walls?
No, the court carries on with its pleasures
Inquisitions and banquets and balls
But they must be protocoligorically correct
Good form must never suffer from neglect
The rules and regulations we respect
Must be treated circumspect
Else the kingdom will be wrecked
We've a system to protect
Checked and double checked
And protocoligorically correct
If the daughter of the Duchess of Snodden
Were to be seated by the Countess of Sneed
For this breach of decorum to Snodden
The invasion of Sneed would proceed
And seat the heiress to the barony of Neuburg
By the side of her hated cousin, Gwenn
Oh, how quickly the armies of Neuburg
Would deploy to destroy us again
So we must be protocoligorically correct
Good form must never suffer from neglect
The rules and regulations we respect
Must be treated circumspect
Else the kingdom will be wrecked
We've a system to protect
Checked and double checked
And protocoligorically correct
So we must be protocoligorically correct
Good form must never suffer from neglect
The rules and regulations we respect
Must be treated circumspect
Else the kingdom will be wrecked
We've a system to protect
Checked and double checked
And protocoligorically correct
Protocol! Protocol! Protocol
Above all! Above all! Above all
Makes a kingdom rise or fall
So we must be protocoligorically correct
Good form must never suffer from neglect
The rules and regulations we respect
Must be treated circumspect
Else the kingdom will be wrecked
We've a system to protect
Checked and double checked
And protocoligorically correct
