Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Camelot, Camelot
In far-off France I heard your call
Camelot, Camelot
And here am I to give my all
I know in my soul what you expect of me
And all that and more I shall be
[Verse 2]
A knight of the Table Round should be invincible
Succeed where a less fantastic man would fail
Climb a wall no one else can climb
Cleave a dragon in record time
Swim a moat in a coat of heavy iron mail
[Verse 3]
No matter the pain, he ought to be unwinceable
Impossible deeds should be his daily fare
But where in the world is there in the world
A man so extraordinaire?
[Chorus]
C'est moi, c'est moi, I'm forced to admit
'Tis I, I humbly reply
That mortal who these marvels can do
C'est moi, c'est moi, 'tis I
I've never lost in battle or game
I'm simply the best by far
When swords are crossed 'tis always the same
One blow and au revoir
[Chorus]
C'est moi, c'est moi, so admirably fit
A French Prometheus unbound
And here I stand with valor untold
Exceptionally brave, amazingly bold
To serve at the Table Round
[Verse 4]
The soul of a knight should be a thing remarkable
His heart and his mind as pure as morning dew
With a will and a self-restraint
That's the envy of every saint
He could easily work a miracle or two
[Verse 5]
To love and desire he ought to be unsparkable
The ways of the flesh should offer no allure
But where in the world is there in the world
A man so untouched and pure?
[Bridge]
C'est moi
[Chorus]
C'est moi, c'est moi, I blush to disclose
I'm far too noble to lie
That man in whom these qualities bloom
C'est moi, c'est moi, 'tis I
I've never strayed from all I believe
I'm blessed with an iron will
Had I been made the partner of Eve
We'd be in Eden still
[Chorus]
C'est moi, c'est moi, the angels have chose
To fight their battles below
And here I stand as pure as a prayer
Incredibly clean, with virtue to spare
The godliest man I know, c'est moi
Written by: Alan Jay Lerner, Frederick Loewe
