D&D General Friday Fun: Now THIS Is D&D Rock!

[Reynard]

SImple rules: change one or two words in a song title to make it about D&D or D&D adjacent things.

Examples: Master of Mimics, The Ghoul of Tom Joad, Waterdhavian Rhapsody.

Like that. Go.

 

[GreyLord]

No need. Expedition to Barrier Peaks has this as a theme song with it!

 

[Snarf Zagyg]

You never made it as a wise man
You couldn't cut it as a cleric healing
You tired of playing as a good man
Now you wants to play a class that's unappealing
And this is how you remind me

This is how you remind me
Of what Bards really are
This is how you remind me
Of what Bards really are

You never will say that you're sorry
Play a different Bard but the same old story
You play a class that's godforsaken
Another cutting word and my mind is achin'

You say that I'm wrong, Bards are fine
Same jokes scrape the bottom of every barrel
These five words in my head
Scream "Do you hate enough yet?"

Now do gnomes!

 

[Snarf Zagyg]

Now do gnomes!

Load up on dice, bring your friends
It's fun to play D&D and to pretend
You'll get a sword and raid the dragon horde
Oh no, gnome is a dirty word

Hello, hello, hello, do I roll low
Hello, hello, hello, do I roll low
Hello, hello, hello, do I roll low
Hello, hello, hello

Bring a cleric, it's less dangerous
We've got a DM, entertain us
Fighter is stupid but courageous
We've got a DM, entertain us
Don't go solo, fireball needs guano, hit a deathblow, play with gusto
Yeah, hey
Yay

The thief is worse at what he should do best
Just lets the magic user knock open the chest
Our little group has always been
And always will until the end

Hello, hello, hello, do I roll low
Hello, hello, hello, do I roll low
Hello, hello, hello, do I roll low
Hello, hello, hello

Bring a cleric, it's less dangerous
We've got a DM, entertain us
Fighter is stupid but courageous
We've got a DM, entertain us
Don't go solo, fireball needs guano, hit a deathblow, play with gusto
Yeah, hey
Yay

And I forget just why I play
Oh yeah, I guess D&D makes me smile
I found THACO hard, I'm not math inclined
Oh well, whatever, nevermind

@Snarf Zagyg is absolutely brilliant. A true master-bard, singing the songs of the entire hobby!

PS There’s a guy works down the chip shop, swears he’s Gygax.

 

[GuyBoy]

When bulettes bite hard and hit points are low,
And dragons fly high but enlarge spells won’t grow
And we’re changing our dice, getting different rolls

Then owlbears, owlbears will tear us apart again.
Owlbears, owlbears will tear us apart again.

There are some explicitly D&D themed bands that I just listen to in rotation. To wit:
