lyrics

TROLL IN VALHALLA
Music & Lyrics: Alexander James Adams

There’s a troll in Valhalla ‘neath the bright Rainbow Bridge,
He jumps out and scare you if you’re close to the ridge!
But just give him a kiss or a fierce fighting grin,
And he’ll offer you treats and then welcome you in!

TO VALHALLA! WHERE THE VALKYRIE SINGS!
WHERE THE ALE HORNS ARE FULL AND THE HORSES HAVE WINGS!
VALHALLA! IT'S WARRIOR'S GOAL!
TO FIGHT FIERCELY, LOVE LUSTILY AND PAY OFF THE TROLL!

He’s the hero of children and the bane of king’s men,
He breaks regulations again and again!
If you’re weak-willed or lazy, or your heart is not true,
Then you’ll meet with his axe and you’ll never get through!


When the music starts up and the Storm Father sings,
The troll gets his dulcimer covered in strings-
Which he beats with a hammer ‘til the wood flies apart,
Oh the sound isn’t pretty, but it comes from the heart!


He challenges scoundrels, he'll terrorize thieves!
He'll take down the peddlers of poisonous leaves!
You can’t bribe him with gold or with jewels or with pearls,
But I’ve heard he’s a thing for those blond pretty girls!
In Valhalla! Valhalla!

Live your life to it’s fullest, ‘til your time is at hand,
And the Valkyrie carry you far from this land-
Let your foes, friends and lovers be many and great,
So when you meet the troll, he will open the gate!
