Can’t channel them for Healing spells, oh no I thought that I heard you gasping I thought that I heard you scream I think that we are gonna die But I can’t keep you healed I can’t keep you healed

Are you ready to be making a save? Out of the darkness the quarrels rip From the depths of the cave Another one dies to drow Another one dies to drow Another another one down, and another one down Another one dies to drow Hey, they're gonna crit you too Another one dies to drow How do you think we're gonna get along Now that our healer's gone?

Lazzmaniandevil 03-04-07, 07:48 AM	:heehee I still haven't found what I'm looting for Sung to the tune of: I still haven't found what I'm looking for with apologies to U2 I have climbed highest mountain and run through the orcs Only to get some gold Only to get some gold I have roll I have crawled I have shattered these dungeon walls These dungeon walls Only to get some gold But I still haven't found what I'm looting for But I still haven't found what I'm looting for I have kissed demon lips Failed my save, took two more sips Was saved by the fighter his cold iron ranseur I have summoned tons of angels I have fought the darkest devils, a frost worm in the night, I was once turned to stone But I still haven't found what I'm looting for But I still haven't found what I'm looting for I prevented lichdom come Made all his minions bleed into one Bleed into one Well yes I'm still running You blast the minds and you feed on brains you'll feel the wrath Of my flail Of my flail You ought to believed it But I still haven't found what I'm looting for (4X)
Tintagel 03-04-07, 09:17 AM	Oh, that is classic!
Lazzmaniandevil 03-04-07, 09:18 AM	I'm honestly starting to think that I have to much time on my hands.... Anyhow, here is another one... You will survive Sung to the tune of: I will survive with apologies to Freddie Perren & Dino Fekaris (the authors), as well as to Gloria Glaynor, Cake and all the other artists who have performed the original song... First I had to save, Not to be petrified Kept thinking I could never live Without a party by my side But I spent so many spells, Thinking how it could go wrong I grew strong, I learned how to carry on And so I won Thanks to my mace I turned around to find you there With that stone look upon your face I should have learned break enchantment I should have help you make your save If I had known for just one second A medusa was in that cave ! So now I will, walk out the door You can't turn around now 'cause you're not fleshy anymore Weren't you the one who tried to bring one more ally Try not to crumble You can't even lie down to die ! Oh no, not you You will survive As long as there's no delver here I know you'll stay alive I've got all our loot to give I've got all my gold to give And you'll survive You will survive It took all the gold I had But I bought a scroll I'm trying hard to mend the pieces of your stony soul 'cause you spent oh so many nights just waiting here for myself that you decayed Now I need to hold your head up high Can you see me ? Feel something new ? You're now that same little person Before the medusa gazed at you and so you feel your flesh again and you thank me to be free Next I'm casting all my buffing 'cause her sister followed me !
Tintagel 03-04-07, 09:42 AM	Lazzmania, that one is crazy good! I think there are a few little rough spots with the pacing or syllables though. I LOVE the premise though, and certain parts of the lyrics match so well, I was laughing out loud. :D

By the way, if you have some suggestions on how to correct the rough spots, don't hesitate to post them!
