Hello,
I know this is almost completely OT, but... well, see for yourself.
The following is based on "Strange Blood", a song from the Elfquest
comic series; published on "A Wolfrider�s Reflections" (c) 1987 Off
Centaur Publications BMI, but the text is filk (like a GPL for music,
means yo can distribute and change it as long as you mention the
original author).
Original Words and Music by Leslie Fish. I changed only 5 words.
Enjoy, or delete at will.
STRANGE BLOOD
Strange blood in our veins - too late we understand
Strength and size and long allegiance to the Amigian band.
Strange blood - for its gifts the price at last comes due.
Strange lands and stranger duties has it brought us to!
Strange blood and its gifts we gained from long ago.
Jay Miner gave us this, for cause we�ll never know.
Strange blood and its wisdom long since changed our track;
Wherever it may lead us now, there is no turning back.
Strange blood! We are Amigians, and we are something more.
Now it brought us endless wandering, hunger, rage and war.
Strange blood kept us fed and brought us help at need.
Now it draws us, by our bond, to go where others lead.
Strange blood! No regrets. We would not turn aside.
It brought us safely through the decade where all the others died.
Strange blood! Howl again, for now we know too well:
Better a friend on paths unknown than be alone in hell!
