Walk the road to the trading post Thirty bear pelts I had sold For a flask of the finest yak's Pee in these woods For a flask of the finest yak's Pee in these woods Now the empty pizza boxes Lie beside me in the darkness Haven't slept at least Since level three Haven't slept at least Since level three Unbeknownst to my poor soul The drink, it wouldn't help my goal To have the cold steel of my blade Finish my foe To have the cold steel of my blade Finish my foe I'll die a thousand times To kill you But I can't live Without my enemy There in the forest lies a cheat What quickning potion did he drink Don't lie to me Or to the forest ye lie too Don't lie to me Or to the forest ye lie too Though ye may vanquish me today I swear that we shall meet again Once I've acquired better weapons to smite you

I'll tale ye a tale now that ye may learn Of the brave Sir Genwald Thuswindburn His blade is fierce and his handshake firm And he smells of a bear's entrails And each level through he'd duel and duel With Sir Luke John, that lunging 'ol fool Who'd boast of writing death haikus With a quill from the blood he'd spill But thy'd say, "Haiku yer face to my blade Yer face to my blade, ye foul, foul knave" Thy'd say, "Haiku yer face to my blade And fly to mortality's passing" Swing, Swing The sword that he swings it Sings, Sings Hymns of thine enemies' demise Hymns of thine enemies' demise Lie-die-die-di-di-die-die-die Prepare to relinquish your life, aye Lie-die-die-di-di-die-die-die Alas, what's this? A wee churro, tis. Nay, he'd say, tis a warwitch And try though ye may, ye shan't kill it For its shield is the Lion's Blaze But the brave Thuswindburn died and died Again and again, he foolishly tried Until he'd nearly lost all of his lives And most of his inventory But there is just one more course that is known To join the War Dance of Hammersnow He'd need one more in his party though So he asked Sir Luke John to join him Chorus And Thuswindburn slayed the dragon indeed But to bring the doom to the Skeleton King He must become the legendary, the legendary Battle Bear
