Edgar


Enguard!

Beware my attacks

For I lay my traps

In the form of words

That I once I heard

Come out of your mouth

Your message was caught

And now you're trapped

With the same earful

 

Prudent steps you must make

Because one wrong move

And I'll soon take

All you know

So try not to blow

Your only chance

When it's time to dance

 

I'm the blessed spear

That you'll learn to fear

Parce que le couer

Est ce j'ai toujours

Ignore the dukes

They're all just flukes

Because now it's time

The conquest is nigh

 

I've had my strifes

But still I breathe life

Across the centuries

That's what you heard

So fuck the doubters

Because I draw nearer

 

Fight is what I do

And Peace is what I want

Quick! Watch out

Here comes your one clue

I'm a spiritual fighter

And I shan't flaunt

My achievements and goals

Because I'm the ace in the hole

 

The words are ending

But here's one last verse

We're all just plants

Needing some T L C

Because now you see

That we can all chant

But now ends my turn

And I shall forever burn
