The Lyrics

Just watched this movie last night and I had been practicing Ecitable Boy for my band. Just seemed to click.
Agamemnon sailed across the Aegean Sea
For Helen of Troy they all said
To wage war with the Trojans was his decree
For Helen of Troy they all said
All that for Helen of Troy they all said

Well the battle wore on nonstop for over ten years
For Helen of Troy they all said
Hector and Achilles died and there were so many tears
For Helen of Troy they all said
All that for Helen of Troy they all said

When it was over the Trojans had been undone by deceit
For Helen of Troy they all said
A wooden horse full of Greeks and the trap was complete
For Helen of Troy they all said
Well they pillaged and plundered and turned every stone
For Helen of Troy they all said
Packed up their booty and made there way home
For Helen of Troy they all said
All that for Helen of Troy they all said

You didn't horse around with this one. Maybe not a thousand fives, but it should launch a few.
