Gather 'round you peasants!
[SID'S MOTHER]
Look who's graced us with his presence!
[PEASANTS]
What a hero!
What a mensch!
Oy, what a knight!
[SID'S FATHER]
Plus the kid's on fire
With a farkakte squire!
[SID'S MOTHER]
And a little shiksa wench!
[PEASANTS]
Oy, what a knight!
God, is he to die for
Any girl would give an eye for
Such a hunk of kosher meat!
Oy, what a knight!
Handsome and a charmer!
Is it true that 'neath that armor—
[ISABELLA]
Shh, he likes to be discreet
[RABBI]
Speaking as his rabbi
Why am I not surprised?
Our Sidney is the knight who put
The "sir" in "circumcised"!
[PEASANTS]
Oy, what a knight!
So how's the business going?
[SID]
You know, jousting, tally-ho-ing
Saving damsels in distress
(Oy, what a knight!)
Oh, did I mention slaying?
I did lots of it, just saying
[SID'S DAD]: That's our Sidney, the success!
[PEASANTS]: Hey!
[ISABELLA]
What a gorgeous family
Your Sid can do no wrong
Who knew he came from such a lovely home?
Of course, I'll be converting
So I'm sure we'll get along
[SID'S MOTHER]
Honey, please, you had me at "shalom"!
[PEASANTS]
Oy, what a squire!
So tell us 'bout Sir Sidney
[GALAVANT]
No
[ISABELLA]
He saved your life once, didn't he?
[GALAVANT]
No
[ISABELLA]
So twice?
[GALAVANT]
No
[ISABELLA]
Thrice? Do share
[PEASANTS]
Oy, what a knight!
Oy, what a didle, deedle, daidle!
He's our hero!
He's my idol!
He's adored by one and all!
