Herbert:

Lancelot you might as well just fess up

Really you're a different kind of guy

Move aside your scabbard

For underneath your tabard

There is waiting to escape a butterfly

Men:

His...name...is Lancelot

And in tight pants a lot

He likes to dance a lot

You know you do

Lancelot: I do?

Men:

So just say thanks a lot

And try romance, it's hot!

Let's find out who's really you.

His name is Lancelot

He visits France a lot

He likes to dance a lot and dream

No one would ever know

That this outrageous pro

Bats for the other team.

Herbert:

You're a knight who really likes his night life

And by day you really like to play

You can all find him pumping at the gym

At the Camelot Y.M.C.A.!

Men/Women:

His name is Lancelot

La, la, la

Just watch him dance a lot

La, la, la

He doesn't care what people say

La, la, la

Lance: No Way!

Men/Women:

For when he starts to dance

La, la, la

Just grab your underpants

La, la, la

Herbert:

He can finally come out and say that he is G.A.

All: Y.M.C.A.

All: He's Gay!

Lancelot: Ok!
