Poster Bard, that was totally awesome!

 

[Anti-Sean]

Came up with this little number after our party rumbled with some Hextorite cultists a while back. IIRC, this is the hymn my rogue claimed to hear the cultists singing as he snuck into their church.

Sung to the tune of the Flintstones theme song:

Hextor! Evil Hextor!
He's the god of War and Tyranny.
From the plane of Ach'ron,
Seeks to rule over both you and me.

Hates his half brother Heironeous.
Perfoms deeds that are felonious.

Hextor! Evil Hextor!
He's the Champion of Evil
The Scourge of Battle
He is an evil guy!

I'm impressed! Actually I'm impressed with the quality of all the song posts so far. Keep them coming - this is certainly an education.

[Remathilis]

my favorite bard song:

When that I was and a little tiny boy,
With hey, ho, the wind and the rain,
A foolish thing was but a toy,
For the rain it raineth every day.

But when I came to man's estate,
With hey, ho, &c.
'Gainst knaves and thieves men shut their gate,
For the rain, &c.

But when I came, alas! to wive,
With hey, ho, &c.
By swaggering could I never thrive,
For the rain, &c.

But when I came unto my beds,
With hey, ho, &c.
With toss-pots still had drunken heads,
For the rain, &c.

A great while ago the world begun,
With hey, ho, &c.
But that's all one, our play is done,
And we'll strive to please you every day.

(Shakespeare, William, Twelfth Night)

MojoGM and Poster Bard can I use your songs for a little Rp thing I am doing?

 

[Stormonu]

This is not my own of course, but this is the song that makes me want to play a bard, using this for his Inspire Courage song:

But I'll also post unique ones like this:

UP ON THE ROOFTOP (Bejamin Hanby's "Up on the Rooftop/Housetop")

Up on the rooftop snowflakes fall
But you still hear Cthulhu's call
Up from the deepest darkest of seas
Heralding the old ones
Insane pleas

Chorus

Iä, iä, iä!
What do you say?
Iä, iä, iä!
What do you say?
Up on the rooftop
Click, click, click
Down thru the chimney with
Tentacles thick

First comes the taking
Of little Nell
Oh, dear Cthulhu
Do it well
Show her your visage
She laughs and cries
Horror will open
And shut her eyes

Repeat Chorus

Next comes the stalking
Of little Will
Oh, just hear what
A glorious trill
Here comes a shoggoth
"Tekeli-li!"
Run down the hall
And attempt to flee!

Repeat Chorus

HOOKED ON GMING (Mark James "Hooked on a feeling")


I can't stop GMing deep inside of me
Y'all just don't realize what gaming does to me
When I draw my homebrewed maps all night
I got to know everything's all right
I-I-I, I'm hooked on GMing
High on believin' that gaming is for me
Drinks as sweet as candy, the taste stays on my mind
Snacks to keep me thirsty for another Coke or nine
I got it bad for you, game, but I don't need a cure
I'll just stay addicted and hope I can endure
Painting minis when I'm all alone
Keep it up, game, yeah ya turn me on
I-I-I, I'm hooked on GMing
High on believin' that gaming is for me
[Instrumental Interlude]
Painting minis when I'm all alone
Keep it up, game, yeah ya turn me on
I-I-I, I'm hooked on GMing
I'm high on believin' that gaming is for me
