We're screwed!

From the first moment I chose to play a bard in D&D, I kept humming in my head "We're screwed" to the tune of "Hey Jude". Finally, I wrote it down but it was several sessions before, finally, it was appropriate for it to have its premier last night. With the assistance of co-gamer and the far more talented singer, Chrissy Bowdery, we sung this, complete with a karaoke version of the tune playing on the computer.

So, for your enjoyment, here are the lyrics to We're Screwed, sung to the tune of Hey Jude:

We're screwed, it's really bad.
We took a good plan and did another.
Remember you should have aimed for the heart
Now we're apart and it's all over.

We're screwed, so be afraid.
We were meant to go out and get them.
The minute we let them under our skin,
We were done in, now it's all bedlam.

And I can't run now for the sprain, I'm screwed, the pain
Blood's trickling down between my shoulders.
For well you that it's not cool to play the fool
By running away as I grow colder.

We're screwed, you let me down
Now this hell on earth is unfettered
So remember now that you've gone astray
You'd better pray I don't get better. (better better)

Don't let it out of the box it's in, we're screwed, so screwed
Everything's gone to hell and it's all over
So you thought you could save your own skin, you're screwed, it's sin,
We are all in this shit-storm together

We're screwed, make no mistake.
We should have listened to everything
The moment that anything fell apart
Was time to start to make with the
running, screaming, begging, pleading, please don't eat me, NOOOOooo.....!

Iä iä iä iä iä, iä iä iä, we're screwed...etc.

Nice one,
Deserves to be come a classic!

Reminds me of the rhyme that did the rounds many years ago
sung to the tune of Mr Ed

"A corpse is a corpse, of course of course
and no one can talk to a corpse of course
But I can talk to a corpse of course
'cos I've got speak with dead!"

My other favourite is the verbal component of the Druid spell 'Entangle':
"Trees and grass, roots and suckers,
rise from the ground and get the ..."
