lyrics

First I am his kinsman and his host
I could not, dare not, bear the knife myself
Besides this Duncan borne himself so meek
his virtues plead like angels, trumpet-tongued
I have no spur to prick my own intent
but vaulting ambition, which oer leaps itself.

Duncan, oh Duncan,
Id have loved you, but you were in my way.
Duncan, oh Duncan,
Id have loved you but for what the seers say.

To be thus is nothing, but to be safely thus
Theres none but he whose being that I fear
The sisters hailed him father to royalty,
my soul given to make the seeds of Banquo kings!
Rather than so, come fate into the list
and champion me unto the utterance

Banquo, oh Banquo,
Id have loved you, but you were in my way.
Banquo, oh Banquo,
Id have loved you but for what the seers say:

When will we, meet again
in the thunder and the rain
When the hurly-burlys done
when the battles lost and won.
That will be ere the set
of the sun
Fair is foul, foul is fair
hover through, the fog and air
