The following piece of vile Lunar propaganda was inspired by Nick Brooke's anti-war piece so blame him.
Be gentle with it: the scansion needs help in a few places.
Once a jolly scholar,
Twirling his moustchios,
Laid aside his scrolls
And he said "Let's see.
I've a most cunning plan
To redesign the Universe
Who'll join the Dance of the Goddess with me?"
Dance of the Goddess,
Dance of the Goddess,
Who'll join the Dance of the Goddess with me?
And he sang as he went and roamed around Torang town
Who'll join the Dance of the Goddess with me?
Then a noble gentlemen
Warrior of great reknown
A Slaughterer, A General,
A Hoomakti !
Heard the cunning scholar
Recognized the Truth in him
Joined in the chorus immediately
CHORUS: And they sang as they went and roamed around Torang town...
Then a lowly villain
Weeping for a wasted life
Scarred by the world
And horrid to see
Cried: For my soul
And a chance at some redemption
I'll join the dance to try to break free!
CHORUS
Then a high-born lady
Gazing from her lofty tower
Weaving a web
That few men can see
Leapt from her high place
Tumbling down a spider's web
To weave for them a deity
CHORUS
Out from the shadows
Then there came a horrid hag
As Ugly a creature as ever could be
"By Hell and by Madness
I'm the one to show this Dance
The path of magical conspiracy!"
CHORUS
Then came the one
We do not know
And may not name
Some say it was just folks like you or like me
She Who Waits
Waits Still
That's all I know or need to know
About this part of the ceremony
CHORUS
At last a pretty maiden
Red of hair and fair of face
Swept up by the Dance
Up to Godhood was she
And so may we all
If we dance our parts
With Light and Grace
Who'll Join the Dance of the Goddess with me?
Dance of the Goddess,
Dance of the Goddess,
Who'll join the Dance of the Goddess with me?
And the Dance leads up: to the stars and far beyond:
Who'll join the Dance of the Goddess with me?
