Goodnight Wyvern
(Tune: Billy Joel, "Goodnight Saigon")

We lost a castle
On Scottish highland
We found a hassle
On New York island
And we were sharp
As sharp as swords
And we would risk our lives
For our human lords

We came here spellbound
As statues sleeping
They followed hellbound
Like insects creeping
And we held fast
To faith and pride
When we discovered
One we'd trusted had lied

We fought the Vikings
We fought the Archmage
We claimed no honor
And swallowed heart's rage
And there was death
On every side
And in the end fate chose
Who lived and who died

We had the clocktow'r
Our newfound home here
We watched the TV
And read some Shakespeare
And it was cold
So cold at night
And we held close to each other
Like rookery brothers
And dreaded the coming of light

And we would stand or fall together
We said we'd stand or fall together
Yes, we would stand or fall together...

Remember Kath'rine
Remember Magus
They called us monsters
Their scorn would plague us
But who was wrong?
And who was right?
It didn't matter by the end of the night

They held the day
In the palm of their hands
And we ruled the night
And the night
Seemed to last a thousand years here
On New York island
The Hunt continues
The skies are silent
And they were sharp
As sharp as knives
Their fathers hunted for cent'ries
They came here as sentries
And they nearly paid with their lives...

And we would stand or fall together
We said we'd stand or fall together
Yes, we would stand or fall together...
