Yippee-ay-oh, Yippee-ay-eh. The crunchy goons in Sharn. The mem'ries of the Last War had not had their time to heal, And before he knew it the old warforged had drawn steel. He ran to get between them and he let out his war cry, "For Cannith and For Cyre, I cannot let you by." Yippee-ay-oh, Yippee-ay-eh. The crunchy goons in Sharn. The goons let out a scornful laugh and advanced upon the pair. They started up their chanting but the Warforged didn't scare. He simply stood his ground and even gently laid a hand Upon the shoulder of the lass from his ruined land. Yippee-ay-oh, Yippee-ay-eh. The crunchy goons in Sharn. Light shattered on his mithral blade as he swung it in the air He dodged the flails against him and struck them down with flair A mighty feat of cleaving did our Warforged Fighter do He struck down all the Emerald Claw and their lil' dog Toto, too. Yippee-ay-oh, Yippee-ay-eh. The crunchy goons in Sharn. The crunchy goons. . . in Sharn.

JohnSnow 03-01-05, 06:12 PM	Fun idea... THE HIGHWAYMAN - (by "The Highwaymen" - Willie Nelson, Kris Kristofferson, Waylon Jennings and Johnny Cash) I was a highwayman. Along the trade roads I did ride. With sword and dagger by my side. Many a young maid lost her baubles to my trade. Many a Deneith shed his lifeblood on my blade. The bastards hung me in the spring of '25. But I am still alive... I was a sailor. I was born upon the tide And with the sea I did abide. I sailed a galleon ‘round the Teeth to Xen’drik, oh I went aloft to furl the mainsail in a blow And when the shards broke off they said that I got killed. But I am living still... I was an artificer working for Cannith full of pride. Where steel and magic did collide. A place called Eston on the shores of Lake Arul. I watched the grey mist coming for us like a fool. None buried me in that great tomb that knows no wound. But I am still around... I'll always be around, and around and around and around… I’ll fly an airship across the Dolurrh plane divide. And when I reach the other side, I'll find a place to rest my spirit if I can. Perhaps I may become a highwayman again. Or I may simply be a single drop of rain, But I will remain... And I'll be back again, and again and again and again and again…

Dagda Mor 03-02-05, 05:22 PM	Linkin Park's Somewhere I Belong, as sung by a warforged. It converts very easily: (when this began) I had nothing to say And I got lost in the warrior inside of me (I was confused) And I fought it all out to find That there's more there's more to me than the destruction in mind (inside of me) But I don't think that they can see the soul in my steel Is the only real thing that I’ve got left to feel (nothing to lose) The Last War is all that I've known And now I'm all alone, and now I'm all alone [chorus] I wanna heal, I wanna feel what I thought was never real I wanna let go of the pain I’ve felt so long (erase all the pain till it’s gone) I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I’m close to something real I wanna find something I’ve wanted all along Somewhere I belong And I’ve got nothing to say I can’t believe I didn’t keep trying to kill (I was confused) Looking everywhere only to find That it’s not the way I had imagined it all in my mind (so what am I) Do I have the capability? ’cause I can’t justify the way, everyone is looking at me (nothing to lose) Nothing but war, that was my home And now I'm all alone, and now I'm all alone [repeat chorus] I will never know myself until I do this on my own And I will never feel anything else until my wounds are healed I will never be anything till I break away from me I will break away, I’ll find myself today [repeat chorus] I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I’m somewhere I belong I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I’m somewhere I belong Somewhere I belong Next up: Breaking the Habit as sung by Kaius I. This one takes alot more tweaking. Oh, and I loved Lycan's work.

Dagda Mor 03-03-05, 05:28 PM	Ok, here's Redeeming Karrnath, as sung to the tune of Linkin Park's Breaking the Habit by King Kaius I. You all assume They’ve saved you from your doom My people have found hope again She’s in control I’ve sold my nation’s soul I only cared that we would win I don't want to be the one The battles always choose cause inside I realize That I'm the one confused I don't know what's worth fighting for Or if we could have won I don't know why I thirst for blood And fear the burning sun I don't know how things got this way I know it's not allright So I'm redeeming Karrnath I'm redeeming Karrnath Tonight There is no way To keep this thirst at bay I try to gain control again I hurt much more Than anytime before I had no options left again I don't want to be the one The battles always choose cause inside I realize That I'm the one confused I don't know what's worth fighting for Or if we could have won I don't know why I thirst for blood And fear the burning sun I don't know how things got this way I know it's not allright So I'm redeeming Karrnath I'm redeeming Karrnath Tonight It may cost us the war But this is worth much more We’ll drive out the undead Cause this is where it ends I don't know what's worth fighting for Or if we could have won But now I think I finally See what needs to be done I don't know how things got this way I'll never be allright So I'm redeeming Karrnath I'm redeeming Karrnath I'm redeeming Karrnath Tonight I love how combining the complex history and this emotional song give both things alot more depth. I feel like I know Kaius alot better now that I've written this. The song's especially tragic if you keep in mind how his confrontation with Vol turned out.

GoodGuy89 03-08-05, 01:49 PM	:bump: Love these!
TheFlamingCow 03-10-05, 01:18 PM	In the words of Peter Griffin, these are "Frickin' Sweet!". I'm playing a bard in a game, and have been searching for songs that can be used that are setting & genre acceptable. The songs here that aren't "Meta" the game (i.e. might actually be sung by a character in the game) are perfect for me! Keep it up folks! Here's one that's an actual song with just a few words changed to work for Eberron... it's based on a celtic war ballad I believe, called "The Loyal Soldier". The Loyal Soldier (Eberron Edition) When in the field of Dollurh we lye, amongst those Martial wights, Who never daunted are to dye for King and Countries rights, As on Arrah's God I wait and her attendant be, Yet being absent from my mate, I live in misery. When lofty winds aloud do blow, it snoweth, hail or rain, And the Keeper gives his worst show, yet stedfast I'le remain, And for my shelter in some barn creep, or under some hedge to lye, Whilst such as do now strong Castles keep, knows no misery. When down in straw we tumbling lye, with alchemy charms asleep, My heavy, sad and mournful eye in security so deep, Then do I dream within my arms with thee I sporting lye, Then do I dread, or fear no harms nor feel no misery. When all my joys are thus compleat, the Cannons loud do play; The Drums alarum strait do beat, trumpets sounds, horse away, Awake I then, and nought can find but death attending me, And all my joys are vansiht quite; this is my misery. When hunger oftentimes I feel, and water cold do drink, Yet from my Colours I'le not steal, nor from my KING will shrink: No Traytor base shall make me yield, but for the Cause I'le be: This is my love, pray Heaven to shield, and farewell misery. Then to our Arms we straight do hie, and forthwith march away; Few Townes or Cities we come nigh, good liquor us deny: In Khyber deep, our woes we streep, our Loves forgotten be, Amongst the Jovialists we sing hang up all misery. Propitions Fate then be more kind, grim death lend me thy dart, O Sun and Moons, and eke the Wind, great gods take thou our part, That of these Round-heads and these wars, an end that we may see, And in Dorn's name wee'l all applaude, and hang all misery.

You and me will all go down in history, With a sad Mithral Golem, And a Generation that didn't agree. Generation.......... Khyber Pie--By D'aa'n My'alk'lay'n A long, long time ago... I can still remember How that Rajah used to make me smile. And I knew if I had my chance That I could make those people dance And, maybe, they’d be happy for a while. But Olarune made me shiver With every paper I’d deliver. Bad news on the doorstep; I couldn’t take one more step. I can’t remember if I cried When I read about his widowed bride, But something touched me deep inside The day the Rajah died. So bye-bye, Miss Khyber pie. Rode my horsey to the levee, But the levee was dry. And them good old rakshasas were drinkin’ dragon’s blood and lies Singin’, this’ll be the day that I die. This’ll be the day that I die. Did you write the Book of Love, And do you have faith in the Host above, If the Sovereigns tells you so? Do you believe in music with rocks in? Can music save your mortal soul? And can you teach me how to dance real slow? Well, I know that you’re in love with him `Cause I saw you dancin’ in the colloseum. You both kicked off your shoes. Man, I dig those rhythm and grues. I was a lonely teenage Paladin of Tyranny With a pink carnation and a special mount, But I knew I was out of luck The day the Rajah died. I started singin’, Bye-bye, Miss Khyber pie. Rode my horsey to the levee, But the levee was dry. And them good old rakshasas were drinkin’ dragon’s blood and lies Singin’, this’ll be the day that I die. This’ll be the day that I die. Now for ten years we’ve been on our own And moss grows fat on a rollin’ stone golem, But that’s not how it used to be. When the bard sang for the king and queen, In a coat he borrowed from Shemeska the Dean And a +20 to perform checks that came from you and me, Oh, and while the king was looking down, The bard stole his thorny crown. The courtroom was adjourned; No verdict was returned. And while Kaius read a book of Karnnath, The quartet practiced in the park, And we sang dirges in the dark The day the Rajah died. We were singing, Bye-bye, Miss Khyber pie. Rode my horsey to the levee, But the levee was dry. And them good old rakshasas were drinkin’ dragon’s blood and lies Singin’, this’ll be the day that I die. This’ll be the day that I die. Helter skelter in a Argonossen swelter. The dragonhawks flew off with a Jorasco shelter, Eight miles high and falling fast. It landed foul on the grass. The players tried for a forward pass, With the bard on the sidelines in a cast. Now the half-time air was sweet perfume While the sergeants played a marching tune. We all got up to dance, Oh, but we never got the chance! `Cause the players tried to take the field; The marching band refused to yield. Do you recall what was revealed The day the Rajah died? We started singing, Bye-bye, Miss Khyber pie. Rode my horsey to the levee, But the levee was dry. And them good old rakshasas were drinkin’ dragon’s blood and lies Singin’, this’ll be the day that I die. This’ll be the day that I die. Oh, and there we were all in one place, A generation lost in the planes With no time left to start again. So come on: Jack be nimble, Jack be quick! Jack flash sat on a Wand of Fireballs Cause fire is the daelkyr’s only friend. Oh, and as I watched him on the stage My hands were clenched barbarian rage. No nightmare born in Dal Quor Could break that daelkyr’s spell. And as the flames climbed high into the night To light the sacrificial rite, I saw the daelkyr laughing with delight The day the Rajah died He was singing, Bye-bye, Miss Khyber pie. Rode my horsey to the levee, But the levee was dry. And them good old rakshasas were drinkin’ dragon’s blood and lies Singin’, this’ll be the day that I die. This’ll be the day that I die. I met a girl who cast necromancy spells And I asked her for some happy news, But she just smiled and turned away. I went down to the profane temple Where I’d worshipped the Rajah years before, But the cultist there said the Rajah wouldn’t grant spells. And in the streets: the mortals screamed, The cultists cast and the inspired dreamed. But not a word was spoken; The church bells all were broken. And the three men I admire most: The Traveler, Flame, and the Sovereign Host, They caught the last lightning rail for the coast The day the Rajah died. And they were singing, Bye-bye, Miss Khyber pie. Rode my horsey to the levee, But the levee was dry. And them good old rakshasas were drinkin’ dragon’s blood and lies Singin’, this’ll be the day that I die. This’ll be the day that I die. They were singing, Bye-bye, Miss Khyber pie. Rode my horsey to the levee, But the levee was dry. And them good old rakshasas were drinkin’ dragon’s blood and lies Singin’, this’ll be the day that I die. This’ll be the day that I die.

Missekat 12-29-05, 12:35 PM	Man.. I can sure use these songs. Or at least some of them. Im always looking for poems and song that can be used by bards and artists In Game. Wasn't there a thread awhile back where a guy in here created a lot of nation-themed songs from scratch? I used some of his word and applauded him a fair bit, but I can't remember his name, and I can't find the old thread. Anyone remember it?

Leave the mists, gray and black, Tell ‘em I ain’t comin’ back, Burn the land and boil the sea, You can’t take the Cyre in me. There’s no place left for me, Home lost to eternity, But you can’t take the Cyre in me.

poeticyde 12-29-05, 03:54 PM	Erandis d'Vol (to the tune of Minnie the Moocher, with apologies to Cab Calloway) Folks, here’s a story of Erandis d’Vol, A crazy elf lich with the blackest soul, Back before she was the toughest frail, She was just a little girl, now here’s her tale… Hidee-Hidee-Hidee-hi Hodee-hodee-hodee-ho Heedey-hee-dee-hee-dee hee Hidee-hidee-hidee-ho Her mom messed around with a dragon smokin’, Who took an interest in the House of Croakin’, Thought it’d be wild, if they had a child, So peace twixt elves and dragons would be styled… Hidee-Hidee-Hidee-hi Wooooooah Heedey-hee-dee-hee-dee hee Hidee-hidee-hidee-ho So passion’s fires, they soon were feedin’, And soon successful in their plans of breedin’, And soon there was born, to Aeranal’s fears, A babe with scaly skin and pointy ears! Hidee-hidee-hidee-hidee-hidee-hidee-hi Hodee-hodee-hodee-hodee-hodee-hodee-ho Scoodley-woo-scoodley-woo-scoodley-woodley-woodley-woo Zit-dit-dit-dit-dittle-but-dut-duttleoo-skit-dit-skittle-but-dit-zoy They raised her in secret, and taught her enchantment, A billion spells, mostly necromantic, She learned to raise corpses, to play with the bones, And to take delight at hearin’ them zombie moans… Hidee-Hidee-Hidee-hi Hodee-hodee-hodee-ho Heedey-hee-dee-hee-dee hee Hidee-hidee-hidee-ho Pride soon overwhelmed her mom and the dragon, They got loose lips, and they started braggin’, They thought the elves would praises hail, But instead they angered, and began to wail! Whooooooooooooa, Yyeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaah, Hey de he de he he Whoaaaaa Whoaaa And soon House Vol, it began to crumble, Before the Aeranal wrath to tumble, So Mom took Erandis, and with a dying breath, She made her a lich with powers over death! Hi de hi de hi de hi Ho de ho de ho de ho Skiddley doodley doodly do Skiddly diddly day Poor little Erandis, it made her crazy, As good and bad became a little hazy, And gave her a thirst for vengeance so strong, She was just a poor girl, but they done her wrong. Hi de hi de hi de hi Skooby de be do He de he de he de he Whoa, Whoa Whoa Poor Vol, Poor Vol, Poor Vol...

Kinger 12-30-05, 01:44 AM	I just had a thought... "Sleeping Awake" by POD could be used as the theme for a Dragon Prophet or, indeed, anyone dragonmarked, with very little tinkering at all. Reveal to me the mysteries. Can you tell me what it means? Explain these motions and metaphors. Unlock these secrets in me. Describe this vision, The meaning is missing. I promise I will listen. Define the riddles of the signs. Nothing is really what it seems. Dreaming of dragons, awake, Sleeping awake. Dreaming of dragons, awake, Can't stop sleeping awake. Do you see what I see? Can you hear what I hear? Do you feel like I feel? Can't stop sleeping awake. Do you see what I see? Can you hear what I hear? Do you feel like I feel? Can't stop sleeping. Can you see it? The writing? Can you tell me what it means? Translate the symbol's enigma. Expressions keep questioning me. The message is written, The meaning is missing. I promise I will listen. Prophecy. Interpreting the signs. Nothing is really what it seems. Dreaming of dragons, awake, Sleeping awake...
Straylight 12-30-05, 02:22 AM	Another one that needs very little tweaking is tobymac's "New World" (hear it on the Chroncles of Narnia OST): No one believed her No one imagined it was true No one could see her gaming haven coming into view She says she's seen the land beyond She said she's walked her Babylon She felt the dice beneath her sheet And time stood still where the DM won't sleep (where the DM won't sleep) I've seen a new world (like nothing before just step through the door right) Into a new world (Into Eberron) I've seen a new world (like nothing before just step through the door right) Into a new world (Into Eberron) Roleplay was fading A darkness far beyond their might But hope came crusading on the wings of Baker's artifice He gave them something to believe Hellcow in all His majesty He conquered Faerun through His world and handed them the land they were dreaming of I've seen a new world (like nothing before just step through the door right) Into a new world (Into Eberron) I've seen a new world (like nothing before just step through the door right) Into a new world (Into Eberron) I never dreamed it but it seems that He's at work again Penning His words He's just the same as I remembered Him The Realms are weakening with every word He's writing in And when He writes she can't ignore that He's our king again There, just beyond the Greyhawk I've seen a new world (like nothing before just step through the door right) Into a new world (Into Eberron) I've seen a new world (like nothing before just step through the door right) Into a new world (Into Eberron) I've seen a new world Into a new world Into Eberron And while I'm at it, (changed 9 words. Put down your drinks before you open this one, trust me.) The Shifter (with apologies to Bryan Powers) Well a Shifter clad in kilt left a bar on evening fair And one could tell by how we walked that he drunk more than his share He fumbled round until he could no longer keep his feet Then he stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street Ring ding diddle diddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh He stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street About that time two young and lovely girls just happend by And one says to the other with a twinkle in her eye See yon sleeping Shifter so strong and handsome built I wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath the kilt Ring ding diddle diddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh I wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath the kilt They crept up on that sleeping Shifter quiet as could be Lifted up his kilt about an inch so they could see And there behold, for them to see, beneath his Brelish skirt Was nothing more than Host had graced him with upon his birth Ring ding diddle diddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh Was nothing more than Host had graced him with upon his birth They marveled for a moment, then one said we must be gone Let's leave a present for our friend, before we move along As a gift they left a blue silk ribbon, tied into a bow Around the bonnie star, the Brey's kilt did lift and show Ring ding diddle diddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh Around the bonnie star, the Brey's kilt did lift and show Now the Shifter woke to nature's call and stumbled towards a tree Behind a bush, he lift his kilt and gawks at what he sees And in a startled voice he says to what's before his eyes. O lad I don't know where you been but I see you won first prize Ring ding diddle diddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh O lad I don't know where you been but I see you won first prize
Ashlock 12-30-05, 09:55 AM	I actually amused myself with this one recently... Frosty the Warforged Frosty the warforged Was a jolly happy clone With a darkwood heart and a mithral nose And two eyes made out of stone Frosty the warforged Is a nice construct they say He was fond of snow And artificers know How he came to life one day There must be lots of magic In creation forges now For when they turned it on that day He began to dance and bow Frosty the warforged Was alive as you and me And the Canniths say He could fight and slay But they saw he'd rather flee Frosty the warforged Knew the forge was hot that day So he said, "I'll run! I'm the slave of none Now I'm off without delay!" Down to the village With a greatsword in his hand Running here and there All around the square Saying, "Catch me if you can!" He led them down The streets of town Right to the magewright's shop Then finally paused a moment And his greatsword made them stop Frosty the warforged Stole the magewright's sleigh But he waved goodbye Saying, "Don’t you scry Or I'll kill you all one day!"

Thanqol 12-30-05, 05:37 PM	The Artificer (The Pianoman, by Billy ir'Joel) It's nine o'clock on a Saturday... Regular crew shuffles in. There's a fighter sitting next to me, Cursing the sword he'd smashed in. He says "Son can you make me a weapon, I don't really care if it stinks, But I'm fighting a Demon and his whole motley crew, And I don't want a weapon that breaks" La la la, de da da La la, de de da da da Make us a sword, you're the Artificer, Make us a sword tonight! When we're all wanting new weapons, And want a fairer fight! Now Henry the Wizard is a friend of mine, He casts me some spells for free, And he's quick with a joke, or a nasty Force Choke, But there's something that he'd rather be. He says, "Bill I believe I'm not doing it," As his wand croaked it's last charge, "While I'm sure I could be a Redcloak, If I could find a wand that lasts" Oh, la la la, de de da La la, de de da da da Now Wand is a Warforged Cleric, Who never had a +1 mace, And he's talking with Pintate, Who's still a Dread Pirate, And broke his rapier on a face. And the Changeling is plotting a murder, While the Shifter stares out at the moon, Yes they're planning a daring mission, But they won't be going alone. Make us a sword, you're the Artificer, Make us a sword tonight! When we're all wanting new weapons, And want a fairer fight! It's a pretty good crew for an adventure, And d'Cannith gives me a smile, 'cause he knows that without me, the crew that you see, Wouldn't have much life in a while. And the Wand of Fireballs sounds like the Apocalypse! And the Magic weapons hack through flesh like air! And they return to the bar and put coins in my jar, And say "Man, you're something to fear!" Oh, la la la, de de da La la, de de da da da Make us a sword, you're the Artificer, Make us a sword tonight! When we're all wanting new weapons, And want a fairer fight! ~Thanqol.
Count Nerindil Van Seraph 12-30-05, 06:55 PM	Ok, here we go. Karn Perfume (to the tune of "French Perfume" (http://www.lyricsdownload.com/great-big-sea-french-perfume-lyrics.html) by Great Big Sea) "It's of a half-elf smuggler From Greentarn he did sail He rode the capes of Lhazaar And never saw the jail He filled her up with contraband, perfume, lily, and rum he hoped the ship was quick enough to make another run [chorus:] You can still see the sight On a frosty night Of his wake by the light of the moons If the wind turns right If you don't take fright you can smell that Karn perfume But two Reaver boats were waiting As he sped toward Skairn Bay And and as they circled round him He saw no other way He didn't bring her head round When they told him to heave to, He gripped the wheel of his magic ship And sped straight towards his doom. [Chorus] They say they heard him laughing, He was quickly closing in. The Reavers screaming murder, All he could do was grin. The seagulls started lifting, like an angry banshee choir He rammed both ships at 50 clicks And the sky lit up with fire. It's of a half-elf smuggler From Greentarn he did sail He rode the capes of Lhazaar And he never saw the jail And when its cold and foggy Around late Olarune They say you hear him laughing and smell that Karn perfume [Chorus X2]" Also, Mutter (http://herzeleid.com/en/lyrics/mutter#mutter) by Rammstein is the perfect song for a bitter Warforged.

I thought the Minnie the Moocher one was nice, but this wins. If there are any Country fans on the boards (whadaya mean there aren't any Country fans on the boards?) then below is my humble contribution. Lucille to the tune of Lucille by Kenny Rogers In an armory in Breland, Across from the halberd-stand, On the counter, she laid down her mace, I thought I'd move closer, So I walked on over, Showed her a broadsword +2. She looked at it glitter, She said "I'm no quitter, But I finally quit living on faith. From here on my XP, Goes to Martial Weapons Proficiency, (sung really really fast) And I'm after whatever the Fighter path brings. In his loincloth I saw him, With his Greataxe I feared him, He was of the Half-Orcy race He came to the woman, Whose lunge I was helping, He had a strange look on his face. The big arms were bleeding, He was built like a werebear, For a minute I thought I was dead. But he started shaking, His war-wounds were aching, He looked at the woman and said: "You picked a fine time to class change, Lucille, My rage state is ending and my blood will congeal. I lived through some bad fights, Fought through some long nights, But this time, the hurtin' wont heal. You picked a fine time to class change, Lucille." After he left us, I showed her my guisarme, But I thought how she'd watched him expire. From polearm and longbow, to repeating crossbow I raised her Attack Bonus higher and higher, She handled the blade well, but the weapon I could not sell, She must have thought I'd lost my mind. I couldn't train her, for the words that he'd explained t'her Kept comin' back time after time. "You picked a fine time to class change, Lucille, My rage state is ending and my blood will congeal. I lived through some bad fights, Fought through some long nights, But this time, the hurtin' wont heal. You picked a fine time to class change, Lucille." Repeat

'Cause the eyes of a ranger are upon you, Any wrong you do, he's gonna see, When you're in Eldeen, look behind you, 'Cause that's where the ranger's gonna be!

Waracle 01-02-06, 06:12 PM	"The Warforged" by The Lord of Blades (aka: Rock LoBster!) (to the tune of "The Soulforged", with apologies to Blind Guardian) I'm not insane That's how it seems though Spiteful, cruel but wise beyond his age My body fails. My war will (rise) The end of life's immortalized Disease and agony And I see death through Warforged eyes (Beyond the door) There's nothing more It seems there's just one way... On through the heat I've felt the touch of evil I still feel The icy claw in me For a descent price I've banned kindness from my heart The spirit of all truth and beauty pawned for my desire And from the flames As chance would have it The Warforged will come into light! And from the flames As chance would have it The Warforged, the stainless will rise! I will never change my mind I will leave it all behind And through the scrying glass Everything's grey, everyone's pale Nor colour nor beauty will enlighten my heart The seat of life's empty and cold Cadaverous you all soon will be! Stillborn but you're still alive You're still alive... Truth lies in loneliness When hope is long gone by I'll wipe out the bliss of the new age And welcome you precious night And from the flames As chance would have it The Warforged will come into light! And from the flames As chance would have it The Warforged, the stainless will rise! From a distant time voices echo in the Mournlands "Come and join us, end life and everything is ours now" And through the scrying glass I still hate mortality and Its loss in the end (Unlimited) power in my hands ("Mourn for the Last War, He's cursed and condemned") The claw of the LoBster descends! Each step I take, may it hurt, may It ache Leads me further away from the past But I don't need to breathe (and) no smile on my stone face I'm on my way to find back to the Peace of mind And from the flames As chance would have it The Warforged will come into light! And from the flames As chance would have it The Warforged, the stainless will rise! I will never change my mind I will leave it all behind

Aneul 01-04-06, 07:54 AM	Warforged Wizard To The Tune Of "Pinball Wizard" Ever since I was a young boy, I’ve worked at Cannith Hall. From Flamekeep to Fairhaven, I must have cast in all. But I ain’t seen nothing like him, In any Cannith Hall- That wood, stone, and iron kid, Sure casts a mean fireball... He stands like a statue, Becomes one with the machiene. Tapping all charges, Always castin’ clean. Casts by intuition, The best in Cannith Hall- That wood, stone, an iron kid, Sure casts a mean fireball... He’s a warforged wizard, Has to be a trick. A warforged wizard’s got such a heavy fist. How do you think he does it? I don’t know- What makes him so good? Ain’t got no distractions, When he’s a casting spells. Don’t feel no gauno squishing- Casts like bloody hell. Always got components, Never seen him stall, That wood, stone, and iron kid, Sure casts a mean fireball... I thought I was, But I just took a skim, I just handed my arcane crown to him. He blasted my favorite table, He can beat my best. His side plating getting sooty, And he just doesn’t rest. He’s got crazy mithril fingers, Never seen him fall- That wood, stone, and iron kid, Sure casts a mean fireball... There's A Cleric To The Tune Of "There's A Doctor" There’s a man I’ve found, Can bring us all joy- There’s a Cleric I’ve found can cure the boy! A Cleric I’ve found can cure the boy! There’s a man I’ve found, Can remove this sorrow, He lives in Flamekeep- Lets see him tomarrow! Lets see him tomarrow! Go to Her, Miron To The Tune Of "Go To The Mirror" He seems to be completely unreceptive. The prayers been answered make no sense at all. His eyes react to light, my spells detected- He hears but cannot answer the Flame’s call! (Chorous): See me, feel me, Touch me, heal me. Se me, fell me, Touch me, heal me. There is no chance, no untried Evocation. All hope lies with him, and none with me. Imagine though, the shock of isolation- When he suddenly can hear and speak and see! See me, feel me, Touch me, heal me. See me, feel me, Touch me, heal me. His eyes can see, his ears can hear his lips speak! All the time the Silver Flame burns on. No spell can give the kind of stimulation- Needed to remove his inner block! Go to her, Miron; boy! Go to her, Miron; boy! I often wonder what he is feeling. Has he ever heard a word I’ve said. Look at him, filled by Miron, dreaming- What is happening, in his head? Listening to you, I get the Music- Gazing at you, I get the heat! Following you, I climb th Mountain- I get exitment at your feet! Right behind you, I see Gorilions- On you, I see the glory! From you, I get opinions- With you, I fight the Quori! What is happening in his head? Ooooooo I wish I knew..... I Wish I Knew.

Pan_Ai_Khan 01-05-06, 08:25 AM	Here's a Cruxshadows track, modified very little. Not funny, but I feel it fits the Warforged very well... Dry your eyes, and quietly bear this pain with pride For heaven shall remember the silent and the brave. And promise me, they will never see the fear within our eyes. We will give strength to those who still remain. Chorus: So bury fear, for fate draws near and hide the signs of pain With noble acts, the bravest souls endure the heart's remains. Discard regret, that in this debt a better world is made That children of a newer day might remember, and avoid our fate. And in the fury of this darkest hour, we will be your light. You've asked me for my sacrifice, and I am Warforged born. Without denying, a Faith is come that I have never known. I hear the Angels call my name, and I am Warforged born. Hold your head up high, for there is no greater love. Think of the faces of the people you defend. And promise me, they will never see the tears within our eyes Though we live like men, with mortal sins, Angels never cry. [Chorus] And in the fury of this darkest hour, I will be your light A lifetime for this destiny, for I am Warforged born. And in this moment - I will not run, it is my place to stand. We few shall carry hope within our bloodied hands. Within this moment now, I am for you - though better Men have failed. I will give my life for love, for I am Warforged born. And in my dying I'm more alive than I have ever been. I've lived for these few seconds, for I am Warforged born.

Lurkalot 01-14-06, 01:57 PM	(SPOKEN): Dear Xoriat, you spawned many, many Mindflayers. I realize, of course, that it's no great shame to be an Ithilid... but it's no great honour, either. So what would have been the difference if I were just a little less sane? If I were a Daelkyr, Icky wibble wobble Wibble burgul durgul do All day long I'd gibber-giggle-foo. If I were as mad as you! I wouldn't have to make sense, Urby-burby f'thagn Ioggy-sothy-frothy-pooey-weer. If I were the embodiment of madness, A crazy CR 30 Daelkyr. I'd build a big tall house made out of colour, Sitting in the middle of Khorvaire, A fine flesh roof with real torture rooms below. There would be one long staircase just going up And one even longer coming down, And one more transcending time itself, just for show. I'd fill my yard with Dolgrimms, Aboleths, Beholders, And Cultists for the Druids to see and hear, Chanting just as noisily as they can, And each loud "Ia! Iog-Sothoth! Cthulhu! F'thagn!" Would land like a trumpet on the ear, As if to say, "Here lives a Daelkyr." Oy! If I were a Daelkyr, Icky wibble wobble Wibble burgul durgul purgle do All day long I'd grow heads on people's elbows, If I were a Daelkyr. I wouldn't have to make sense, Urby-burby f'thagn Ioggy-sothy-frothy-pooey-weer. If I were the embodiment of madness, A crazy CR 30 Daelkyr. I see my spawn, my aberrations, swarming the land Eating the Gatekeepers, Tearing out seals to their heart's delight. I see me standing on one leg pretending to be a lettuce, Oy! What a crazy mood I'm in, Screaming at my breakfast day and night. The most important men in Eberron will come to fawn on me-- They will ask me to spare them, Like a merciful conqueror "If you please, Lord of Madness?"-- "Pardon me, Lord of Madness?"-- Offering tributes that would make a dragon blush, (chanting) Ya va voy, ya va voy voy vum... And it won't make one bit of difference To whether they're in luck, When you're mad, you do not give a... monkey's. If I were a Daelkyr, Icky wibble wobble Wibble burgul durgul purgle do All day long I'd grow heads on people's elbows, If I were a Daelkyr. I wouldn't have to make sense, Urby-burby f'thagn Ioggy-sothy-frothy-pooey-weer. If I were the embodiment of madness, A crazy CR 30 Daelkyr. Xoriat that spawned the Ithilid and the Mouthers, You decreed I should be Int 18, Would it spoil some vast, eternal scheme, If I were a Daelkyr? It will be so so so soooooooo hard not to have a Mindflayer break into that in front of the players. I can just see it stepping out in it's robes, head back, tentacles waving and claws shimmy-shammying as it laments its lowly CR 8 status. Does anyone know where I can get a Kareoke edition of Fiddler on the Roof?
Count Nerindil Van Seraph 01-14-06, 05:51 PM	If I were a Daelkyr... :OMG! :clap: :clap: :clap: :rofl: :bow: That. Was. AMAZING. I can't stop laughing! Absolutely inspired!

New name in stead of Valentine, but still :-)
Lurkalot 02-08-06, 05:08 PM	I know.. it could use some more work. New names in stead of Valentine and Romeo and Juliet, but still :-) Doing your bit to make sure it remains the most covered song in the history of music? :D Very nice. Instead of Romeo and Juliet, how about "the Coutals and the Lycanthropes" as two (very nearly) extinct species in Eberron? Bit of an odd afterlife image, but there you go. Okay.... my attempt coming up. Should be a song that everyone knows. -K.
Lurkalot 02-08-06, 05:09 PM	I like to picture the Queen of Karrnath, dressed as a goth-school girl for her husband and singing thusly: Oh Kaius, Kaius How was I supposed to know That something wasn't right here Oh Kaius, Kaius I shouldn't have let you go And spend the night with Erandis Show me how you want to bite me, Tell me Kaius 'cause I need to know now, oh because Chorus: Your level drain is killing me I must confess, you 'Dominate' me, When I'm not with you I lose my mind I must be a thrall________________, Bite me Kaius one more time Oh Kaius, Kaius The reason I bleed is you Boy you got me charmed good Oh pretty Kaius There's nothing that I wouldn't do It's not the way I planned it Show me where you want to feed from, Tell me Kaius 'cause I need to know now, oh because Chorus: Your level drain is killing me I must confess, you 'Dominate' me, When I'm not with you I lose my mind I must be a thrall________________, Bite me Kaius one more time Oh Kaius, Kaius how was I supposed to know (Maybe 'cause you have no reflection?) I must confess, I think I'm about to go Down to -10, yeah.

So what you say Jaela The world around us makes me feel so Small Jaela If you can't hear me call Then I can't say Jaela Heaven help you catch me if I fall She's the queen of all I've seen And every song and city far and near Heaven help me mademoiselle She rings the bell for all the world to hear Hey Jaela The stars about to fall So what you say Jaela The world around us makes me feel so Small Jaela If you can't hear me call Then I can't say Jaela Heaven help you catch me when I fall
Lurkalot 04-26-06, 06:00 PM	Sung to the tune of Dream a Little Dream of Me by Louis Armstrong. Moons shining bright above you Night breezes seem to whisper "we'll get you" Trying to stay awake for as long as you can, You can't stop dreaming of Quori. Late at night when everyone's gone, Hold your covers tight and sleep with the light on, While you're alone and as afraid as can be You can't stop dreaming of Quori. Sleep fading but I linger on here, Hidden deep in your mind [in your mind], I’m longin’ to seed all your friends, yeah Enslaving your kind. [Starting with you, Oop-boop-be-doo] Dreaming Dark are going to find you Stop struggling - you're going to do what we tell you But in your dreams whatever they be You can't stop dreaming of Quori. Moons shining bright above you Random strangers seem to whisper "we'll get you" Can't tell the difference between awake or asleep, Your mind belongs to we Quori. Sweet dreams, now that we own you. Sweet dreams but you know we're behind you So in your dreams whatever they be, Know you're serving the Quori. Yes, dream your dreams for the Quori. [Louis Armstrong Voice][i]Nighty-night![/Louis Armstrong Voice]
RaidingPartyGames 05-25-06, 01:09 PM	Lhesh Haruuc and the Raiders present... They took the whole Darguuni Nation And put us on this reservation We carved out a new way of life With the spiked chain and curved knife They took away our native tongue And taught their Common to our young Our armour which used to get 'wows' Is mass-produced by Cannith House. Hobgoblin people, Bugbear tribe So proud to live, so proud to die They ignored all Darguuni's station Until we carved out our own nation And though I with the humans bide I’m still a goblin deep inside Hobgoblin people, Bugbear tribe So proud to live, so proud to die But maybe someday when they learn Ancient Dhakaan will return Will return Will return Will return Will return And then Lorena ir'Karrnath presents, the Mummy's Dance! When in the winter of the year When the trees are dead and black When the silent tomb, and the cursed room Are dressed in carrion rack. When asps climb the breathless crypt In the black shroud of the night The shadows of the dead appear Admist the ghastly light We've been rambling all this life And some fair time beyond Ne'er to return again From where we all were spawned. Who will go down to those shady rooms And summon the shadows there And sacrifice unto those undying arms In the winter of the year The smell of death seems to fill the air When the necromancer prays All their voices can be heard Long past our mortal days And so I tread this pyramid Round in rectangle and line And so the journey of the spirit bids When all the shades are mine. "An offering we bring you here and by threshold we stand It is a soul that felt our pull The work of Queen Vol's hand." We've been rambling all this life And some fair time beyond Ne'er to return again From where we all were spawned.

allenchan 05-25-06, 05:17 PM	"I like Riedrans" (to the tune of Monty Python's "I like Chinese") The world today seems absolutely crackers, The Day of Mourning blew us all sky high. There's fools and idiots sitting on the trigger. It's depressing and it's senseless, and that's why... I like Riedrans. I like Riedrans. They only invade your kingdom Yet they're always friendly, and they're ready to please. I like Riedrans. I like Riedrans. There's nine hundred million of them in the world today. You'd better learn to like them; that's what I say. I like Riedrans. I like Riedrans. They come from a long way overseas, But they're beautiful and they're regal, and they're ready to please. I like Riedran court. The ambassadors never are rude. Think of the many things they've done to impress. There's Egoists, Nomads, Kinetists, and the rest. So I like Riedra. I like Riedrans. I like their giant monoliths, Their Dorjes, their cryssteel, their yin, and yang-ese. I like Riedran thought, The wisdom that Inspired taught. If Dal Quori is anything to shout about, The Riedrans will survive us all without any doubt. So, I like Riedra. I like Riedrans. They only invade your kingdom, Yet they're wise and they're witty, and they're ready to please. All together: Wo ai zhongguo ren. Wo ai zhongguo ren. Wo ai zhongguo ren. Ni hao ma; ni hao ma; ni hao ma; zaijien! I like Riedrans. I like Riedrans. Their food is guaranteed to please A thirteen, a twelve, a draconic prophecy? Oh please! So I like Riedra. I like Riedrans. I like their giant monoliths, Their Dorjes, their cryssteel, their yin, and yang-ese. I like Chinese. I like Chinese. They only invade your kingdom...

I may be showing massive ignorance here, but what is the second one from? Lorena McKennit, "The Mummer's Dance" And three more. Because I can't get them out of my head. “Lady Undead” by Chrisburgh d’Phiarlan I’ve never seen you raising so many zombies as tonight I’ve never seen such arcane might I’ve never seen your necromancy used to make all those bones dance Or vampires looking for neck romance, given half a chance I have never heard that spell you’re casting Or the maggots in your head that catch your eyes I thought were blind The lady undead ensorcelling me beat to beat There’s no living souls, except Kaius III (he’s where I’d rather be) But I’ve never met this lich-queen who had died I’ll never survive, the spells you cast tonight. I’ve never thought you living or undead or whatever, right? Everybody thought you had died you were astounding I’ve never dreamt the Emerald Claw was always there by your side And when you touched me with that spell, it took my breath away I have never since had a feeling Such a feeling of complete and utter doom, as I do tonight The spells you cast tonight I never will survive, the spells you cast tonight The lady undead The lady undead The lady undead My lady undead.

Phaseroth 06-25-06, 01:56 AM	As you know, the continent of Xen'drik was once home to a vast empire of giants. I present here a traditional folk song, popularized many centuries ago by drow bards of Xen'drik. The song is still popular amongst the drow, (now the dominant culture of the Continent of Mystery) and is often sung by mothers to their children to remind them to never disturb sleeping giants! The Giant Sleeps Tonight Aweemaa'weh, aweemaa'weh, aweemaa'weh, aweemaa'weh * In the jungle, the Xen'drik jungle The giant sleeps tonight In the jungle, the Xen'drik jungle The giant sleeps tonight Aweemaa'weh, aweemaa'weh, aweemaa'weh, aweemaa'weh ... Near our village, our hidden village The giant wakes tonight Hears our party, our celebration The giant wakes tonight Aweemaa'weh, aweemaa'weh, aweemaa'weh, aweemaa'weh ... Hush my child, I think it's safe now The giant's gone for now Though his club smashed your little brother I think he's gone for now Aweemaa'weh, aweemaa'weh, aweemaa'weh, aweemaa'weh ... *"Aweemaa'weh" is believed to be a drow adaptation of a figure of speech from the the language of the ancient giants. Translated into Common it means, roughly, "What in Khyber is all that racket? Dost thou know the hour? Verily, I doth attempt to slumber!"
Sythion 06-26-06, 03:19 AM	OMG these are great! "Round Cyre" by Counting Crows Step through the mist like a ghost into the fog Where know one notices the difference of left or right. And in between the cleric and you You suddenly get a better view Of the fallen bodies dead without a fight. I walk through the mist 'tween Valenar and Thrane Through Metrol and to Eston Where? I don't know Titania says she's dying. She can't heal, but she keeps trying Why? I don't know Round Cyre Flame Strikes stand up straight Round Cyre Cloud Kills radiate Titania came from Karnnath with a prayer book in her hand She said she'd like to meet a man who looks like Kaius She walks along the edge of the glowing chasm and the land Just like she's walking on the cliffs in her homeland She parks the airship outside of Metrol Takes her mail off Says she's close to finding out what did this She knows she's more then just a little too hopeful She has trouble casting spells like clairvoyance Round Cyre We're trying to stay sane Round Cyre Corpses don't decay Round Cyre we fight like Rakshasa But she the chasm is where she stands Round Cyre she's growing extra hands Wake up children got to run from the wind Follow the lightning rail Mage's living spell better not be comin' Follow the lightning She says, "Quori's only in my head." She says, "I know Quori's in my head." But the warforged 'ficer and the juggernaut says "Go ahead punk, try to take a shot, Can't you see your flesh is mutatin'?" Then she looks down at her third arm and says she's thinking of runnin' She says she doesn't wanna die And the lord of blades is coming Round Cyre We're always about to die Round Cyre This was a waste of time Round Cyre was never a good idea And treasure has to wait Round Cyre we enter mist very, very, very, very late And I can't see nothing, nothing Round Cyre Catch me if I'm falling Round Cyre

Dr. Benway 01-08-07, 01:01 AM	A bardic tune that emerged in the final years of the last war.... Roland the Headless Darkwand Adept (to the tune of roland the headless thompson gunner by warren zevon) Roland was a warrior, from the House of the Manticore with his darkwood wand for hire, eager for the war the deal was made in Rekkenmark, on a dark and stormy day so he set out then for Metrol, to join the bloody fray Thru '86 and '7, they fought the great Last War, with their wands and spell components, knee-deep in gore thru days and nights they battled, the Flamers to their knees they killed to earn their living, and to help out the Cyranese (chorus) Roland the darkwand adept! Roland the darkwand adept! His comrades fought beside him, Van Owen and the rest but of all the darkwand adepts, Roland was the best so the Emerald Claw decided, they wanted Roland dead that son of a bit ch Van Owen, blew off Roland's head (chorus) Roland the headless darkwand adept! (Time, time, time for another peaceful war) Karnath's bravest son! (But time stands still for Roland 'til he evens up the score) They can still see his headless body stalking through the night In the lighning flash of Roland's darkwood wand In the lighning flash of Roland's darkwood wand Roland searched the continent, for the man who'd done him in he found him in Q'barra, in a barroom drinking gin Roland aimed his darkwood wand, he didn't say a word But he blew Van Owen's body from there to old Korranburg Roland the headless darkwand adept... Roland the headless darkwand adept... Roland the headless darkwand adept... Talkin' about the man! Roland the headless darkwand adept... The eternal darkwand adept, still wandering through the night Now it's ten years later, but he still keeps up the fight In Valenar, in Droaam, in the Mournland and in Reidra! King Jarot heard the shot of Roland's darkwood wand And bought it

I grew up with a hide and axe And a friend by my side who could follow tracks We would fight rival tribes and find things to steal Till that boy ended up as a rakshasa's meal Born in the Demon Wastes Born in the Demon Wastes, yeah Born in the Demon Wastes You just know I was born in the Demon Wastes I set out to escape this land Over hellish terrain with my trusty band A patrol at the edge tried to turn us back But we launched into them with a mighty attack There was blood, guts and dark fiendish sorcery Everyone went to Dolurrh except for me As I fled, I yelled out in the pouring rain "Adios, Demon Wastes, I won't see you again!" Born in the Demon Wastes Born in the Demon Wastes Born in the Demon Wastes I ain't never going back to the Demon Wastes! Now it's come to the end of my little yarn If you wanna talk more, come and meet me in Sharn Swinging axes and raging, that's what I do I'm the hot jungle man for your Xen'drik crew Born in the Demon Wastes Born in the Demon Wastes, I was Born in the Demon Wastes I'm an axe-swinging Daddy from the Demon Wastes!

Count Nerindil Van Seraph 02-19-07, 06:56 PM	Wow. This thread has fallen to page seven. Allow me to cast true resurrection, bard style. Disposable Soldier (Based on the Metallica song "Disposable Heroes. Honestly, it's not all that different.) Bodies fill the fields I see, hungry heroes end I have to play soldier now, it's not just pretend running blind through killing fields, forged to kill them all Victim of what said should be a servant `til I fall Soldier boy, made of steel just an empty shell barely one, Cannith's son he will serve us well Forged to kill, not to care just do as we say finished here, Greeting Death he's yours to take away Back to the front you will do what I say, when I say Back to the front you will die when I say, you must die Back to the front you coward you servant you half-man Roaring of the magic fire, does nothing to me now sounding of the clock that ticks, get used to it somehow Half a man, a useful tool, never knowing friends bodies fill the fields I see the slaughter never ends Soldier boy, made of steel just an empty shell barely one, Cannith's son he will serve us well Forged to kill, not to care just do as we say finished here, Greeting Death he's yours to take away Back to the front you will do what I say, when I say Back to the front you will die when I say, you must die Back to the front you coward you servant you half-man Why, Am I dying? Kill, have no fear Die, live off dying Death, death is here I was born for dying Life planned out before my birth, nothing could I say had no chance to see myself, molded day by day Looking back I realize, nothing have I done march to die without a friend My war is never won Soldier boy, made of steel just an empty shell barely one, Cannith's son I will serve them well Forged to kill, not to care just do as they say finished here, wish for death I'm death's to take away Back to the front you will do what I say, when I say Back to the front you will die when I say, you must die Back to the front you coward you servant you half-man Back to the front.

Leave the mists, gray and black, Tell ‘em I ain’t comin’ back, Burn the land and boil the sea, You can’t take the Cyre in me. There’s no place left for me, Home lost to eternity, But you can’t take the Cyre in me. Oh man, this is beautiful.

Eled_the_Worm_Tamer 04-19-07, 08:08 PM	Not so much Eberron as D&D based but none the less, in memory of 30 years of Dragon magazine I give you: The Day that Dragon Died (With apologys to Don McLean) A long, long time ago... I can still remember How that natural 20 used to make me smile And I knew if I had my chance That I could make my players dance And, maybe, they’d be happy for a while. But April made me shiver With every page the net deliverd. Bad news on the doorstep; I couldn’t take one more step. I can’t remember if I cried When I read about the things they cried, But something touched me deep inside The day that Dragon died . So bye-bye, to this DM’s delight. Drove my chevy to game store, But the game store was dry. And them good old boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye Singin’, "this’ll be the day that I die. "this’ll be the day that I die." Did you write the book of rules, And do you have faith in WoTC's fools, If the SRD tells you so? Do you believe in rock ’n roll, Can music save your mortal soul, And can you teach me how to roll just so? Well, I know that you’re in love with cash `but of my game you’ve made a hash. You both kicked off your shoes. I hope to god a job you lose. I was a lonely teenage broncin’ buck With a bag of dice and one of guts, But I knew I was out of luck The day that Dragon died. I started singin’, "bye-bye, to the dreams and the Die." Drove my chevy to the game store, But the game store was dry. Them good old boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye And singin’, "this’ll be the day that I die. "this’ll be the day that I die." The day that Dragon died…
Snipers_Promise 04-20-07, 05:33 PM	Iv'e got an irish rebel song called The Sniper's Promise. The last war seems to connect in some way. I changed a few words. Here is the song. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BMK74QQp8M8) The night was icy cold I stood along I was waiting for an army foot patrol And when at last they came within my sights I squeezed the trigger of my crossbow light Oh Mama, oh Mama comfort me For I know these things have got to be But when the war for freedom has been won I promise you my bage will be undone. A shot rang out, I heard a soldier cry "Oh please don't leave me here alone to die" I realized his patrol had run away And left their wounded comrade for me to slay. Oh Mama, oh Mama comfort me For I know these things have got to be But when the war for freedom has been won I promise you my bage will be undone. "There's nothing in this world I would not do If there's mercy in your heart you'll let me live" And in his eyes I saw a burning flame As my sword slowly moved towards his brain. Oh Mama, oh Mama comfort me For I know these things have got to be But when the war for freedom has been won I promise my bage will be undone. The dawn was breaking as I reached my base I will not forget the look on that boy's face Fear, agony, and torment where all there Oh but to your memory, mother, his life I spared. Oh Mama, oh Mama comfort me For I know these things have got to be But when the war for freedom has been won I promise you my bage will be undone.

Missekat 02-11-08, 10:08 AM	This one didn't even need to be changed. If you can get the song, with Malene Dietrich singing it, it's awesome for Eberron. I based Mox, a barde in Sharn on her and some of her other songs. Where have all the flowers gone? Long time passing Where have all the flowers gone? Long time ago Where have all the flowers gone? Girls have picked them every one When will they ever learn? When will they ever learn? Where have all the young girls gone? Long time passing Where have all the young girls gone? Long time ago Where have all the young girls gone? Taken husbands every one When will they ever learn? When will they ever learn? Where have all the young men gone? Long time passing Where have all the young men gone? Long time ago Where have all the young men gone? Gone for soldiers every one When will they ever learn? When will they ever learn? Where have all the soldiers gone? Long time passing Where have all the soldiers gone? Long time ago Where have all the soldiers gone? Gone to graveyards every one When will they ever learn? When will they ever learn? Where have all the graveyards gone? Long time passing Where have all the graveyards gone? Long time ago Where have all the graveyards gone? Covered with flowers every one When will we ever learn? When will we ever learn? Maybe I should add that she also sang "Lili Marlene", and that song will also fit right in.
Shiftkitty 02-11-08, 03:53 PM	My players' PC drow pursued, captured, and are now trying to decide what to do with a bunch of adventurers who tried to steal a ruby from the tribe. We had the radio playing softly in the background, and as the pursuit was nearing it's near-lethal (to the NPC's) conclusion, Guns 'n' Roses "Welcome to the Jungle" started playing. We thought it quite appropriate without modifying it.
Elton74 02-18-08, 10:22 AM	How about something based off "Cows with Guns?"
