Lyrics[edit]
I have a dear friend.
Her name is Sherry.
And if you ask her,
"Sherry, will you help me?"
Then she will tell you
"Sure I'd like to help but
First you'll have to go and
Fetch me some cheese..."
Cheese, cheese.
Where am I to get some..?
Cheese, cheese,
How am I to find some...?
Everybody likes it!
Everybody HIDES it!
How am I supposed to
Get me some cheese?!
- from Ultima: Runes of Virtue
