Lyrics I Wonder What the King Is Doing Tonight (From "Camelot") - Richard Burton
I
know
what
my
people
are
thinking
tonight
As
home
through
the
shadows
they
wander
Everyone
smiling
in
secret
delight
They
stare
at
the
castle
and
ponder
Whenever
the
wind
blows
this
way
You
can
almost
hear
everyone
say
I
wonder
what
the
king
is
doing
tonight?
What
merriment
is
the
king
pursuing
tonight?
The
candles
at
the
court,
they
never
burned
as
bright
I
wonder
what
the
king
is
upto
tonight?
How
goes
the
final
hour
as
he
sees
his
bridal
bower
Being
regally
and
legally
prepared?
Well,
I'll
tell
you
what
the
king
is
doing
tonight
He's
scared,
he's
scared
You
mean
that
a
king
who
fought
a
dragon
Hacked
him
in
two
and
fixed
his
wagon
Goes
to
be
wed
in
terror
and
distress?
Yes
A
warrior
who's
so
calm
in
battle
Even
his
armor
doesn't
rattle
Faces
a
woman
petrified
with
fright?
Right
You
mean
that
appalling
clamoring
That
sounds
like
a
blacksmith
hammering
Is
merely
the
banging
of
his
royal
knees?
Please
You
wonder
what
the
king
is
wishing
tonight?
He's
wishing
he
were
in
Scotland
fishing
tonight
What
occupies
his
time
while
waiting
for
the
bride?
He's
searching
high
and
low
for
some
place
to
hide
And
oh,
the
expectation,
the
sublime
anticipation
He
must
feel
about
the
wedding
night
to
come
Well,
I'll
tell
you
what
the
king
is
feeling
tonight
He's
numb,
he
shakes,
he
quails,
he
quakes
And
that's
what
the
king
is
doing
tonight
