The idea doesn't; it's just a case of making it work. Like these guys did:martinharder2000 wrote: Yo this is a story all about how
Our lives got withturned upside down
After our quest went awry when we all dared
To apply to be contestants on a show called Knightmare.
Sucks doesn't it?

They whistled for Motley and when he came near, the mine cart said fresh and had dice in the mirror!
If anything they thought that this ride was free, but they thought na forget it: go on to level three!

(I can't believe I checked up on the Fresh Prince words on Google. My most embarrassing search ever is now "Fresh Prince 'This is a story all about how'".) Imagine Hugo on aforementioned spinning chair if it helps blot out the awful words.Trial_by_Spikes wrote: I have often thought Knightmare would have been a better series if Treguard had rapped a bit more. At the beginning. Like the Fresh Prince. In a spinning chair. Tim Child. I speak for the whole Knightmare community.
Now this is a story all about why
Julie from Leicester was doomed to die.
I'll just recap a minute, don't tell me to talk faster
Because I'm Treguard Dunshelm, the funky Dungeon Master.
Back in Level One on a quest for the sword
Got questioned by Brangwen and two good truths scored.
Sidesteppin', walkin' forward, turnin' right, stop
And all laughing loud at Amanda's starry top.
Got life force damaged on the wellway by a ghoulie
But it was Amanda's horrid outfit that really frightened Julie.
Got wrong one little riddle and missed out on magic
So they were doomed to a death both hilarious and tragic.
They went on through the level and escaped Mogdred's minions
Then into a long room where they had some strange opinions.
In the corridor nasty things then paid a visit
But instead of escaping they shouted out "Who is it?".
Got surrounded by goblins, it was lookin' real unpleasant
But they just tried to offer the evil creeps a present.
So as the goblins started to stab and thump her
I said "Ooh, that is nasty" but I meant Amanda's jumper.
Onto my latest offerings. First, Merlin sings about what he was up to during certain Series 4 quests. Based on Living in a Box by none other than Living in a Box. Official music video
Woke up this morning
Closed in round my feet
Helen's questing
She shows compassion
As I open my eyes
I was testing
I've found a way to get
Many dungeoneers' aid
Let Gundrada try it too
And the maid
Am I sitting in the stocks
Am I sitting in a set of stocks
Am I sitting in the stocks
Am I sitting in a set of stocks
Am I sitting in the stocks
Life goes in circles
Around and around
Circulating
Seven quests later
I'm asking Giles for help
With escaping
I've found a way to get
Many dungeoneers' aid
Let Gundrada try it too
And that maid
Am I sitting in the stocks
Am I sitting in a set of stocks
Am I sitting in the stocks
Am I sitting in a set of stocks
Am I sitting in the stocks...
Second, a song about the final parts of the winning quest of Series 6. Based on Walk the Dinosaur by Was (Not Was). Official audio
Boom boom acka-lacka lacka boom
Boom boom acka-lacka boom boom

It was a day like this back in 1992
Entered a spider's lair, picked up an astrolabe to go
The captain he was grateful, he wanted to thank me
He summoned up the wind, and I got to Level Three
And walked the Mines of Gore, thanks, Captain Nemanor
Open the door, get on the floor
Everybody walk the Mines of Gore
[x 4]
Boom boom acka-lacka lacka boom
Boom boom acka-lacka boom boom
[x 2]
I went into a cave, conjured Hordriss with a TRICK
He had to be my slave, and then he helped me out quick
That day I had a sorcerer right there at my behest
We sent him back, I stayed awake and got on with the quest
And walked the Mines of Gore, I walked the Mines of Gore
Open the door, get on the floor
Everybody walk the Mines of Gore
[x 4]
A villain on a ledge, smug enough to be Lord Fear
A flying splashing noise sweeter than I'll ever hear
I knew I had to take the crown, and linger there no more
Suddenly a crucial dash down a dwarvish corridor
I left the Mines of Gore, I left the Mines of Gore
Open the door, get on the floor
Everybody leave the Mines of Gore
[ x 4]
Boom boom acka-lacka lacka boom
Boom boom acka-lacka boom boom...
