Return What You Have Stolen: A Song

This song was inspired by the movie TIME BANDITS.
Sung to the tune of DO YOUR EARS HANG LOW or DOES YOUR CHIN HANG LOW.

(To a group of thieves)

Return what you
Have stolen from me
Or else I'll set my werewolves free
And they'll chase you
All the way to Greece
If you don't return to me.

If you DO return
What you've stolen from me
Then I'll bury you
In golden cheese
And I will be
Forever pleased
If you return to me.

But if you don't....

Then I'll torture you
With fire from my glove
And lightning from
The skies above
And you'll wish
That you never fell in love
With what you stole.

And I'll erase
All your good memories
So that you can never be true thieves
And I'll cover your beds
With a whole bunch of fleas
If you make me angry.

So I'm begging you
(Oh, please please please)
To return what you
Have stolen from me
And you'll be able to sing harmony
For this lovely song.

So, that's all for you folks,
Can you please go away?
And I hope you never
Come back some day
'Cause I'm tired of playing
All your silly little games
Now go AWAY!

(Note: what I've said in the last verse is NOT, repeat NOT, what I want. It's just part of the song.)
