Deck the . . . Dungeon?
A delectable chrismas classic - Now with mayhem!
Clear the keeps of orcs a grunting
Fa la la la la, la la la la
Seek the treasure we are hunting
Fa la la la la, la la la la
Through the door and into peril
Fa la la la la, la la la la
Hope you're carrying many arrows
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Raise the flask now, tip the flagon
Fa la la la la, la la la la
We're about to kill a dragon
Fa la la la la, la la la la
Then to plunder and to stealing
Fa la la la la, la la la la
But the cleric just won't heal me
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Stuck in cells for filching funnels
Fa la la la la, la la la la
Can you spot the secret tunnel
Fa la la la la, la la la la
Filled with traps and spike walls too
Fa la la la la, la la la la
Run like mad or be run through
Fa la la la la, la la la la.

Funny.
Really fun! I honestly laughed aloud several times during verses one and two. I would rework the last verse a little so that it has the same meter, though.
Verses one and two were written about seven years ago, during one of my first gaming sessions. Verse 3 was added when I posted the song. I'm glad it made you laugh, and have reworked verse 3 to work better.
Update: Edited verse 3 to flow more smoothly
I still think verse three could flow better, but it definitely made me smile. Kudos on revamping a seasonal classic.
Tis the season
