On My Throne
(By Gorlan of the Red Lands, 1998)
(To the Tune of "On My Own" by the Doobie Brothers)
I don't know what is was that possed me
I fought and won a crown once again
It must have been some kind of madness
For the next six months I'm on it again
Oh
On my throne
I've got no chance to get tight
On my throne
I've got to be nice and polite
On my throne
Everybodys got me in sight
All throughout the night.
I not sure what it was I expected
As Viceroy it just wasn't this bad
If you've never had to sit at peerage meetings
Count your blessings, cause I think I've been had
Oh
On my throne
I can find no place to run and hide
On my throne
From those who want me on their side.
On my throne
I sit and rest my royal hide
and pray for regicide.
I must admit at wars it seems worth it
You lead your kingdom out to the fight
But after all the battles are over
the politics continue all night
Oh
On my thrown
Ones with no life want all of my time
On my thrown
With a crown, it seems that I've lost mine
On my thrown
I wish I could decree it a crime
With beheading as the fine.
The Story Behind this Song
Despite having worn a crown once as viceroy of Nordmark,
Matthew Blackleaf went and won the Kingdom crown touney. A tribute to not
learning the first time around.
