I Am Dungeon Master Lyrics

Elven princess, human mage, a warrior priest and a thief
the path of danger dare they tread,
with leather, steel and magic!
I chronicle they perilous journey
advise them from here to yonder,
I am the master manipulator,
I am Dungeon Master!

I see many battles before you
I see the ruin of countless lives
I see the death of one of you
and I see others in levels rise

(DM:) Behold! A Dragon!
(Goblin King:) My cloak of invisibility shall protect me!
(Warrior:) My broadsword cries for justice! Tis dragon-blood I seek!
(DM:) The dragon still stands! Who dares defy it?
(Elven Princess:) Tis elven magic I bring - this dragon I will slay!
(DM:) And still the dragon stands! Will the thief finish the job?
(Thief:) In the shadows I will stay - from the shadows I will slay...

Who will live?
Who will die?

The mage stands!
The warrior lives!
The thief stands!
the princess dies!

A journey fraught with danger,
path of thorns and sorrows,
good friends lost but treasures gained,
who has suffered most?
I chronicle the stories, but I also shape the lives,
advise them from here to yonder,
I am Dungen Master!
