Come my children, ride the dragon’s wing… Come with me and you will see- what a glorious invitation, Come with me and you will see sights defying interpretation: Lands of old and beasts of gold Spinning deeds legend has foretold, Ride the dragon, see his magic, feel the wind in your hair- Ride the dragon, feel his fire, our dreams can take us there- Soaring through the sky on his golden scale, The king of the air- all beasts shall hail- Hail to the dragon king in his halls of stone, Hail to the dragon king on his lofty throne, Hail to the dragon king in his earthy home, Hail to the dragon king… or he shall chew your bone! It came to pass- an upstart youth defied you- dragon king, And with tooth and claw and flaming breath he called you up to wing, But you were king and he your foe- he challenged for the throne, Ancient wyrm fought mighty drake, you struggled for your home- And with talons ripping flesh- you threw him out to roam. But in exile the youngster grew, nurtured by his hate, And now that wyrm, brave and proud, returns to challenge fate! His flaming breath sweeps the ground as he calls out “IT IS TIME! Tyrant lord! King of worms! Your carcass shall be mine!” And terror grips you now, as it always will When you see that golden comet streak above the hill! You hear that roar, the call of death, destruction is his goal! Lights dim, life ends… death has claimed your soul. Now a new lord rules the dawning day And he brings a strange new way. He shall rule with love and wisdom pure, and justice without fail, So him we praise, this dragon lord, and him- we all shall hail! Hail to the dragon king in his halls of stone, Hail to the dragon king on his lofty throne, Hail to the dragon king in his earthy home, Hail to the dragon king… or he shall chew your bone! Ride the dragon, see his magic, feel the wind in your hair- Ride the dragon, feel his fire, our dreams can take us there-
