Once there were two knights and maidens
They'd walk together
Out in the gardens
In all kinds of weather
The knights always pestered the maidens
To love them together
Out in the gardens
And they could watch each other
The maidens had other plans for the two knights
They'd give them potions
And make them see dreams and lights
The knights took the potions gladly
They laughed at their visions
But outside the garden
Tigers smelled them together
The maidens had other plans for the two knights
They'd give them potions
And make them see dreams and lights
The knights only laughed at the tigers
They thought they were visions
Out in the garden
The maidens watched them together
Ah, but for the two knights
Ah, but for maidens
Who gave to them dreams and lights
They'd walk together
Out in the gardens
In all kinds of weather
The knights always pestered the maidens
To love them together
Out in the gardens
And they could watch each other
The maidens had other plans for the two knights
They'd give them potions
And make them see dreams and lights
The knights took the potions gladly
They laughed at their visions
But outside the garden
Tigers smelled them together
The maidens had other plans for the two knights
They'd give them potions
And make them see dreams and lights
The knights only laughed at the tigers
They thought they were visions
Out in the garden
The maidens watched them together
Ah, but for the two knights
Ah, but for maidens
Who gave to them dreams and lights

In my opinion this is basically a totally normal modern day drama thats been converted into a fairytale
"The knights always pestered the maidens To love them together Out in the gardens And they could watch each other"
its quite naughty really and i basically get that its about two men (the knights) that want to "make love" and watch each other but the women werent comfortable doing that at all.
I might be totally wrong but thats exactly what i get from it i think hes just written a cheeky song in a way that is totally non threatening.
