by: Jhannath Laree, Lady Bard of Elturel date: 1314 source: The Sword Never Sleeps The moon is down, not shining bright So lovers stay in, the beasts do prowl If you skulk out in the trees this night Be the one to pounce - not death howl! A serpent coils by water’s side, It waits to strike, moves inch-by-inch. Where branches twist and dangers hide, Don't fall asleep when you feel that pinch! [Chorus] The sun has set, No stars around, A growing threat (awoo) The moon is down (awoo) (awoo) (awoo) A web is spun, the trap is laid, The spider spins its silken thread. Its fangs gleam bright, a vicious blade, Ignore the traps and you'll be dead! So take a blade and keep it tight, Watch your back, and pack a light! If something growls, just don’t freeze— Run like hell or climb some trees! The werewolves hunt, their eyes aglow, No one's infected if they're dead, They leap with claws and then you know, They need no moon to take your head! [Chorus] The sun has set, No stars around, A growing threat (awoo) The moon is down (awoo) (awoo) (awoo)
