Lyrics

Woke up right at about dawn Just minutes before my tiny hut gets gone I gotta tune my lute before the day begins Before Mugs shows up with some fresh muffins I'm about to strum and dang near went blind Some goblins near the camp lurkin' in some pines Ran in the hut and grabbed my flute Lyrad's drawin' her bow, gettin' ready to shoot Bailed outside and I start some croonin' Just as I thought, the fools start swoonin' Jumped on my horse, tapped my heels on his sides Just to take him out for a quick joyride Then I let my bagpipes play I was blowin' new tunes that'll make your day It was "Faerie Fire" flowing out through my lips Then I played some more stuff, it went somethin' like this Cruisin' down the lane on my brown horse Singing some lyrics, writin' some prose Went to Will's house to get the scoop Hoj and Vale outside tryin' rally the troops A cart pulls up, who can it be? A fresh load of potions from the Watcher Tree Juni jumps off the cart and she starts to say This stuff oughta help when we enter the fray [Chorus] Cause my hood knows that I'm the greatest bard Making spells out of songs is my calling card Using nothin' in life but my charm and wit To write so many plat'num hits Bored as heck and I wanna sing songs I go where there's drinks all day long The fellows in there just hang in the tavern Day or night it's dark as a cavern They greet me with some cheerin' and I start strummin' I get up on the stage and the place is hummin' I'm about to go and rock this diner Of all the bards, you'll find no one finer I get the party started and my set's real rad Then a fan did somethin' that made me mad They're talkin' through my set, I couldn't believe So I had to stop my song and kindly ask them to leave They started hecklin', wouldn't you know? I dug deep like a bard and let some mockery flow Then the barkeep jumped up and he started to shout So I sang a lullaby and gently knocked him out [Chorus] Cause my hood knows that I'm the greatest bard Making spells out of songs is my calling card Using nothin' in life but my charm and wit To write so many plat'num hits [2:55] Please keep tippin' me through the night I think we'd all agree my coffers should not run dry
