    Ode to an Empty Commons

    Butterfly, flutter by
    Every day do you flutter
    Small and cute, wee and bright
    You look happy to flutter
    Peerie insect do you chyrsalis
    But it's not forever
    Butterfly, flutter, fly
    Bonnie for ever after

    Rainabell

    There is a worry within my heart
    Raina, Raina
    Planted today by a slip o’ a lass
    Planted by Rainabell
    Whether she knows it or knows it not
    Sometimes it's hard to tell;
    She’s got a Daddy who loves a lot
    You silly lass Rainabell!

    Chorus:
    Raina Raina
    Orcs not a place for you
    I'm half crazy
    All with worry boot you
    Will not be all so exciting
    When they’re the ones who’re hitting
    You’ll not look sweet off your feet
    All bloody and more than half dead

    Or how it would sound 😉

    There is a worry wi'in ma heart
    Raina, Raina
    Planted the day by a slip o’ a lass
    Planted by Rainabell
    Whether she kens it 'r kens it nae
    Sometimes it's hard tae tell;
    She’s goat a Daddy who loves a lot
    You silly lass Rainabell!

    Chorus:
    Raina Raina

    Ye'll nae look sweet aff yer feet
    Aw bloody 'n mair than hof deed

    Night of the Blats

    Come listen to my tale
    Of Rath Nergal the bard
    Hobber went to Norwick for Ostromog
    Why did he go there
    Whatever did he share
    Came to say Ostromog is the real king
    Queen Val she walked out
    Talked to Biswan you see
    Said Norwick rejects the offer of kingship
    But Ostro he was mad
    Bulettes entered in
    Bugbears went to Norwick for Ostromog

    Fight Night Fanfare

    Beourn the Bold, Beourn the Bold, fighting for his kin
    Beourn the Bold, Beourn the Bold, fighting for his clan
    Feared by the bad, cheered by the good
    Beourn the Bold, Beourn the Bold, win win win.

    Goran the bolter one packed his bolts
    And said goodbye to bold Be-ourn
    Off he went with his bow and his bolts
    Shoot shoot shoot

    Mining Song
    We're three going on a mining trip today
    No more sleeping for a right wee bit.
    Me Beourn and Vic on our mining trip today,
    I’m here keeping him safe for Mum,
    For a right wee bit.

    We're going where the ore shines brightly
    We're going where the beasties lair.
    Always help kin in need of aid,
    Get back to hearth and home.

    Everybody gets a wee cut or two
    Some of them get poisoned or diseased
    I’ll always patch them up best I can oh aye,
    For the good of us all
    For kin and clan.

    Drookit Dawn

    What do you do on a rainy morning
    What do you do on a rainy morning
    What do you do on a rainy morning
    In an empty Peltarch

    All wet and up it rises
    All wet and up it rises
    All wet and up it rises
    Big puddles everywhere

    That's what you do on a rainy morning
    That's what you do on a rainy morning
    That's what you do on a rainy morning
    Watch the puddles waxing

    The Melting of Murztong or Gruzznax's Best Friend's Yarting

    Well
    We knew what we’d be fighting
    But didn’t know where we'd be
    And we knew what all we knew
    But didn’t know much at all
    And we're not shiny pallies
    To smite smite ev-ry-where
    The words they weren’t certain
    Needed time to work them out

    We all went through a portal
    Out other side
    Trip to the abyss it was
    We took that ride

    Picked up our instruments I
    Picked the drums
    Off to the stage and Murztong wise
    Here we go
    Here we go

    We're all Helena’s backers
    Close to her side
    Playing that competition
    Taking her lead
    Didn’t much want to stay in there
    Had to though
    Not going to leave the lassie
    Leave her there
    Leave her there

    She’s a right brave lassie
    Canny brain in her fair head

    It ended well
    Well
    Not for some
    Some sacrifices
    But orcs better off that way

    And it’s all right
    It is
    It’s all right
    Helena won her gem
    And I help’t her sing her song

    Thorn's Head

    Oh Thorny boy, the thorns, the thorns, they’re piercing
    From front to back, and in from ev-ry side
    Your brain is hurt, and your smarts off with the fairies
    It’s you. It’s you must come so I can heal
    Thorn come back for healing your empty head
    Or when the Antsy’s right hurt and red with blood
    You'll not be there for your apprentice laddie
    Oh Thorny boy, the thorns, the thorns, they’re piercing
