Fatguys Banner - Vert, a tankard Or.

Fire God

(by Lord Gorlan of the Red Lands, 1998)
(Tune: "Don't Mess Around with Jim")

    The West had got it's Mega-Dukes
    The East has got it's Laurels
    But Drachewald has got Lord Alexander
    I tell ya he's a Fire God
    Ya he's big and dumb
    As a Lord can come
    But he sure knows how to work a flame
    An when the folks gather round the fire at night
    You can hear them call out his name

    Chorus:
    Everybody shouts "Fire God!

    The fires low
    So please another log on
    We need a little more heat
    We want a fire that they can see on the moon
    And will finally warm up our feet.

    The Fire God came to Nordmark
    To attend the Double Wars
    At first he was grumpy
    I tell ya, he acted real funny
    For the first couple days or so
    One night the wench needed fire
    And only Alexander was close at hand
    In a blink it was blazing
    It was truly amazing
    That's when we knew we he was God

    Chorus:

    So for the rest of war we were toasty
    Cause we had a Fire God of our own
    We were free to loot and to pillage
    Cause we knew that village
    Would burn when we came home
    By day we would win all the battles
    By day we would take the town
    But the night's not complete
    Without our special treat
    Of burning it all to the ground

    Chorus:


History. The Story Behind this Song

 At Double Wars 1998, Lord Alexander was the primary fire tender. And when the fire got low, there were shouts of fire god, etc. The title has stuck. As a bribe to fight on one side of the Magna Carter Wars, the Fat Guys were promised that they would be able to burn the village. Which we did that night around the camp fire one log at a time. Fat Guys as a rule like to burn things.
