Ballad of the Fish Bat



Twas not so long ago...
On a bridge near Widow's Breach
Our men were under an attack.
And I thought that I'd step right in and
Help Meridies to win but my helmet would not cut me
any slack...

The battle raged and people fell
Their war cries rose and they died well
Till one Knight pushed them all back
With one arm and a fish bat!

I turned my eyes back to the fight
When I saw us cheering from the side
and heard an epic battle cry
I said.. yeah THAT'S MY KNIGHT!!!

So bye bye Ansteorran line
Somehow your shield wall had wavered
against a one armed Knight
You shuffled your feet and backed away from the fight
saying who the Hell is this freaking guy?
saying who the Hell is this freaking guy?

Did you know our chivalry
are the bane of every battle fray
even when they've lost a limb?
Do you believe that you can win
when black and white comes crashing in
your chances start to look well, pretty grim?

Well I know that you've fought other wars
and died right next to us before
But this time you had to know
your army would get owned!

Their shield wall shook and pissed themselves
as the knight charged screaming into hell
And I knew as their banner fell
Oh Yeah.. that was my knight!!!

We started singing

Bye bye Ansteorran line
Somehow your shield wall had wavered
against a one armed Knight
You shuffled your feet and backed away from the fight
saying who the Hell is this freaking guy?
saying who the Hell is this freaking guy?

Now for years and years we held our own
called amoeba wherever we had roamed
But that's all gonna change you see
With a strength and will from our king and queen
We will prove ourselves with chivalry
And make our enemies cry and flee


Oh, and while those poor souls backed away
Our army took from them the day
They all had realized
It was a Fish bat of fear PLUS FIVE!
And while we took away their win
we all high fived and cheered and grinned
We saw this epic fight begin
and said.. yeah That's our KNIGHT!


We were singing

Bye bye Ansteorran line
Somehow your shield wall had wavered
against a one armed Knight
You shuffled your feet and backed away from the fight
saying who the Hell is this freaking guy?
saying who the Hell is this freaking guy?

Somewhere in the Gulf Wars air
Their shield wall shuddered in dispair
Knights and Dukes alike in awe
A One armed Knight had scared them back
They backed away their jaws went slack
as he dared them step right up and get a whack

Now about this time we'd won the fight
and I knew that we would drink tonight
and tell this epic tale
Oh other stories paled
It was a sight to see, for one and all
how one lone warrior stopped a wall
It echoes in Valhalla's Halls
Oh yeah... that was my Knight!

I started Writing

Bye bye Ansteorran line
Somehow your shield wall had wavered
against a one armed Knight
You shuffled your feet and backed away from the fight
saying who the Hell is this freaking guy?
saying who the Hell is this freaking guy?


I wrote this great and epic tale
and hoped it would not epic fail
but how long is this friggin song?!
So come on Bard get on your game
and write your Knight's name into fame
I didn't think it could be this long...

Oh and as I jotted down my words
I felt this great and prideful surge
My knight had won the day
Let no man taketh away
And as I looked across that bloody field
And saw everybodies sword and shield
The whole thing looked so surreal
Oh yeah.. that was my Knight!

And we're still singing...

Bye bye Ansteorran line
Somehow your shield wall had wavered
against a one armed Knight
You shuffled your feet and backed away from the fight
saying who the Hell is this freaking guy?
saying who the Hell is this freaking guy?

[Slow Down]

I met a knight Sir Samurai
Who's armor seemed to catch my eye
I'm running out of things to say...
There is no Kingdom greater than
Meridies, where we're real men (and women)
We Kill and drink and drink and drink some more

And back at camp we told the tale
of Ansteorra's epic fail
But we are not that heartless
we love them all regardless!
And the two things I have learned from this
A fish bat isn't just for fish
A one armed man still swings a stick
Oh yeah.. Cuz he's MY KNIGHT!


And they were singing:

Bye bye Ansteorran line
Somehow your shield wall had wavered
against a one armed Knight
You shuffled your feet and backed away from the fight
saying who the Hell is this freaking guy?

They were singing,

Bye bye Ansteorran line
Somehow your shield wall had wavered
against a one armed Knight
You shuffled your feet and backed away from the fight
saying who the Hell is this freaking guy?
