  -----------

  Didja see her arrive, Gak-tooth?

   No I did`n.

   That`s cause everyone died who did.

   Der brains jez popped and dey iz dead!

   How many did she kill?

   Dat number`s still growing

   It`s still growing...

   She`s here, she`s here, -akkkK!

  Tremble, oh oooo oh, Tremble, she comes...

   Wow didja see dat beast explode?

   Da light just reached out

   And boomdead it got.

   Da light, dat cursed light,

   Can barely see it sweeping past

   Pulsing, no burns, only curse

   Da eye is pon us, see it see it

   It`s comin dis way -akkkK!

  Tremble, oh oooo oh, Tremble, she comes...

   Dat gold, it cut dat ur right in two!This story has been taken without authorization. Report any sightings.

   Don`t talk, she might see!

   Don`t look, she might hear!

   Don`t fart, she might feel!

   Don`t move, she might smell!

   Da fire, it took her,

   An she did`n burn at all!

   Purp and whites and blood -akkkK!

  Tremble, oh oooo oh, Tremble, she comes...

   She waz spinning

   Or! She wuz dancing, ya git,

   Ya seen it, da pretty lights

   Goin` in allz directions

   Gobs dying and popping t`see

   No chances to scream

   Only to diez

  "Gorb turned to Flark

  =============

  "Tremble, oh oooo oh, Tremble, she comes...

  Or, guyz! Itz her! Dat skinny

   In da black plaz ain`t goin` back to

   Gold sword anz killin all

   Shown em whatz a git

   E`en da trees and bugs

   Or me name`s not Gogrum-"

  Paten aimed. The shocked hobgoblin crossed his yellow eyes at the leyser dot on his flat nose, shouted, "akkK!" and his head blew off, right on cue. The stanza ended with a certain set of very familiar notes to a certain gaping urgob, throwing off the normal lead-in...

  =========

  "Gorgum said Kill er,

   An` she`s right killin`, she is.

   Damn dat Sword cuttin`

   Slicin` up da urs` suits like cheese

   Watchum squeal and squeak

   Spitting da steel, screaming

  =======

  "Dey wuz a hard Kill Crew,

   Gorgum`s lads, shining and clawed.

   Bam, dat fire going off,

   Dere claws and fangs all flailing

   Wee, watchum go flying

   Or, he lost is hand, go givit back,

   An` dere`s his head sayin`- akkK!"

  =========

  "Or, watch dat cannon go!

   Oops, dat wuzna shootin`

   Great color, da gun core

   Gribble-hue red, good stuff,

   Once, twice, Gorgrum`s Rock

   Haz a new hole dere an` dere,

   Or, he`s fallin`, gunna hit -akkK!"

  =====

  "Or, der went Gorgrum`s Rock,

   Wattashow, dat Plant goin` off,

   Did e get er? Is she singin`?

   All dat fire, all dat blow?

   Smoke and scream hadda be...

   Or, she`s right here -akkK!"
