We Will Lift You

Heralds get a bad rap, invariably from people who are used to getting their own way and can’t quite cope with having to maintain a higher standard of research for their names and armory than they do for everything else.  We all have our ways of dealing with people like that; my new method is going to be this: encourage the spread of this song till everybody knows it, then when someone does something unreasonably hostile to the Heralds, we just answer them with three beats: stomp-stomp-CLAP!

To the tune of We Will Rock You by Queen.  Originally, this was “We Will Make You”, but that had a sort of threatening tone that I never really liked.  Five years to the day from writing it, it came up in my Facebook memories and the proper word popped into my head.  Much better!

Buddy, you’re a newb at your first feast,
Tunic and a cloak, gonna try all the things some day
Wanna earn some fame,
You play that Game,
Come and see the heralds for a cunning new name!
Singin’

We will, we will lift you!
We will, we will lift you!

Buddy you’re a new Lord, top scored,
Got an AoA, people cheering, you feel OK,
It’s all quite nice,
But here’s advice:
See us right now, get a shiny device!
Singin’

We will, we will lift you!
(Sing it!)
We will, we will lift you!

Buddy you’re a King now, somehow,
How the years are flown, gonna spin you some tales this day,
You got time for choice,
While all rejoice:
Remember who’s standing here being your voice!

We will, we will lift you!
(Sing it!)
We will, we will lift you!
(Everybody!)
We will, we will lift you!
We will, we will lift you!
