The Clumsy Knight and the College of Magic

V3.5

Verse 1: Through snowy winds, he made his way, Our clumsy knight to Skyrim’s fray, He saw the College, its towers so grand, And dreamed of magic in his hand. He knocked on the gate with armor askew, “I’m here to learn! Teach me what you do!” The mage at the door gave a skeptical frown, “You need a spell, or turn back to town.” Chorus: Oh, the clumsy knight in robes so bright, He fumbles and stumbles but holds on tight, With a flick and a flop, he’ll give it a try, Oh, the clumsy knight, aiming for the sky! Verse 2: He waved his hands to conjure flame, But instead set fire to his own cape’s frame, The mages gasped, “He’s quite the mess!” But the knight just grinned, “It’s my first success!” In a lecture hall, with books stacked high, He tried levitation and launched a pie, The Archmage scowled, “What’s wrong with you?” The knight replied, “This spell’s brand new!” Chorus: Oh, the clumsy knight in robes so bright, He fumbles and stumbles but holds on tight, With a flick and a flop, he’ll give it a try, Oh, the clumsy knight, aiming for the sky! Bridge: One fateful day, a frost troll attacked, The students all panicked, their courage cracked, But the knight stood tall, with a glowing staff, And tripped on a rock to the troll’s behalf. The troll slipped too, crashing through the floor, It fled in fear, roaring out the door, The mages cheered, “A hero, indeed!” Though the knight himself didn’t quite succeed. Verse 3: They gave him a title, “Master of Chance,” For spells gone wrong and his awkward stance, He left the College with a mage’s hat, And a book of spells he couldn’t grasp at. Now through Skyrim, his legend is sung, The clumsy knight with spells half-flung, He bumbles through magic, but his heart’s still strong, In Tamriel’s tale, he’ll always belong. Chorus: Oh, the clumsy knight in robes so bright, He fumbles and stumbles but holds on tight, With a flick and a flop, he’ll give it a try, Oh, the clumsy knight, aiming for the sky! Outro: So tell the tale in Winterhold’s halls, Of the knight who tripped and saved them all, With magic and mayhem, he finds his way, The clumsy knight, forever astray!
