They're parodies of two songs from two famous adverts.</p>
<p dir="auto">First off, the Halifax advert that was itself based on a song, 'Sex Bomb' by Tom Jones. No Howard Brown here, though, instead, Treguard reassures a nervous dungeoneer through the medium of song.</p>
<p dir="auto">*I'm a dungeon master who's completely obsessed,</p>
<p dir="auto">My helmet of justice, is bound to impress,</p>
<p dir="auto">This knapsack for food, will, put you in the mood,</p>
<p dir="auto">As, you make ready for your big quest.</p>
<p dir="auto">Now you, probably think that it's a, forlorn hope,</p>
<p dir="auto">With Fear watching you, through his telescope,</p>
<p dir="auto">But say "Where am I?", and, without any fuss</p>
<p dir="auto">You can rely on your advisors!</p>
<p dir="auto">Knightmare, Knightmare, I know you want more,</p>
<p dir="auto">I'll give you the Eye Shield as you walk through the door,</p>
<p dir="auto">Knightmare, Knightmare, though I cannot deny,</p>
<p dir="auto">Like most, you'll probably die.*</p>
<p dir="auto">Christmas is coming up, and with it the famous Toys R Us song that's been around since at least 1989. Here's the Knightmare take on it, though...</p>
<p dir="auto">*There's a magical place, we're on our way there.</p>
<p dir="auto">With quests in their millions, all under one roof.</p>
<p dir="auto">It's called "Knightmare Castle"!</p>
<p dir="auto">Soon after Countdown, with mind-boggling tests,</p>
<p dir="auto">Treguard and helpers make ready the Quests!</p>
<p dir="auto">From ceiling to floor, traps, puzzles and maids</p>
<p dir="auto">They've got Trials by Spikes, and Corridors of Blades!</p>
<p dir="auto">"There's millions!" says Treguard, "All under one roof!".</p>
<p dir="auto">It's called Knightmare Castle, Knightmare Castle, Knightmare Castle!*</p>
