We've slaughtered every orc that we have come upon,
And drank at every inn to hear bards sing our song.
We were vet'rans at our trade, and our challenges were few
'Til we thought slaying dragons was the brightest thing to do.
Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons
For dragons don't care if you're human or elf.
Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons
For when they're around it's each man for himself.
For dragons aren't choosy, to them you're just a treat.
And I suggest you run from every dragon that you meet.
We sharpened up our swords, said, "It's a piece of cake
To kill ourselves a dragon, and its hoard to take!"
Oh, we never could have known just how wrong that we would be,
For dragons seldom sleep whene'er you want them to, you see.
We snuck into its lair as quiet as we could,
And had our weapons drawn--as smart adventurers should.
When we saw the dragon grin, then we knew all hope was lost.
You should not seek their treasure if you do not know the cost.
Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons
For dragons don't care if you're human or elf.
Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons
For when they're around it's each man for himself.
For dragons aren't choosy, to them you're just a treat.
And I suggest you run from every dragon that you meet.
The dragon chuckled deep, and rose up from his hoard.
The cleric changed his faith, and the fighter dropped his sword,
Our good bard began to cry, and the wizard soiled his robes,
The ranger fled in terror, and no one can find the rogue.
The dragon shook his head at the spectacle he saw
But he didn't bat an eye, and he didn't raise a claw,
Though instead, the dragon smiled with a vicious toothy grin.
He bade us leave, and spoke the words we shan't forget again:
"Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons,
For dragons don't care if you're human or elf.
Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons,
For when we're around it's each man for himself.
We dragons aren't choosy, to us you're just a treat,
And I suggest you run from every dragon that you meet.
Yes, I suggest you run from every dragon that you meet."
