Lyrics

Deep within the Peliger Hills, Where the land is thick with magic, There lived a lizard named Gervase, Whose life was rather tragic, For he had kindness, wit, and speach, And he longed to be a wizard, But who would ever think to teach, High magic to a lizard?

So poor Gervase would sit and dream, Or sigh there sadly ruing, The fate that kept him ever, From good he could be doing,

One day as he sat dreaming there, All in the forest sunning, He heard the noise of horse and hound, And sounds of two feet running, A human stumbled into his glade, A human worn and weary, Dressed in the shreds of a wizard’s robe, His eyes past hope and dreary

The magic of his birthplace gave, Gervase the gift of speaking, So he hesitated not at all, But ran to the human squeaking, Hide human, hide! Hide in my tree! He danced and pointed madly, The wizard stared, the wizard gasped, Then hid himself right gladly,

Gervase lay down at once in the sun, Until the hunt came nigh him, Then like a simple lizard fled, As panic seemed to try him, He glowered in his hollow tree, And when they came too near him, He bit the dogs upon nose, Until they learned to fear him,

Damn that wizard! The hunter snarled, He’s slipped our tracking neatly, The hounds have clearly been misled, They’ve lost the trail completely, He whipped the dogs away from the tree, And sent them homeward running, Never guessing he’d been tricked, By a clever lizard’s cunning,

The wizard out of hiding crept, Saying much thanks I accord you! Is there some gift within my power, With which i can reward you?

I want to be a man like you, Gervase cried out unthinking, A wizard - or a man? Replied the mage who stood, unblinking,

For I can only grant one, The form of man or power, Whichever one choose swiftly, I must leaver within the hour, Gervase thought quickly, Who would except a mage who was a lizard, But still he knew his dream had come true, He chose to be a wizard,

Now in the councils of the Wise, There sits a welcome stranger, His word is sought by high and low, When there is need or danger He gives his help to all in need, And pledges to defend them, And every helpless creature knows, He lives but to defend them, Now no one cares what form he wears, Human, man, or lizard, Beloved by all both great and small, Is Gervase the lizard wizard,
