In my training, out of novice hood,
I had to spar, many a foes,
Unfortunately, many do not spar,
When they are weak, and not high in might.
So there I was, seeking spars,
I can only find, those quadruple my might,
'Bring it on!' as I declared,
Quaking while, I shout out loud.
So there was this druid,
Whose name I will not name,
Who thought I was easy,
And could kill me real fast.
But what he did not realise,
Was that I learnt to use shield,
Na nana nana nana,
Na nana nana nana.
We started the spar, I sweated profusely.
Can't hit jack, and taking pain.
I tried my hardest, with my attacks,
And my health ran low, and my mana too.
So there I was, taking hits after hits,
Eating moss, and drinking vials,
But as much as I tried, my health slipped down,
And finally, I could take no more.
Although he can kill me,
He cannot kill me through shield,
You need to get a hammer,
Na nana nana nana.
So I was shielded, as my health crept up,
I wondered why, he doesn't hammer me now.
After a while, my health was full,
I was ready, to rock for round two.
Unfortunately, I missed more then I hit,
My combos he healed, with accuracy,
I tried all sorts, but to no avail,
My health neared again, right to nought.
Although he can kill me,
He cannot kill me through shield,
You need to get a hammer,
Na nana nana nana.
So there I shielded, to prepare for three,
When he shouted, 'don't' use your pussy shield',
I finally realised, he had no hammer,
And could prepare fully, for round three.
I did come to realise, during round three,
That I had no chance, against him,
I think even, if he just stood there,
He would not die, as I only, seem to miss.
Although he can kill me,
He cannot kill me through shield,
You need to get a hammer,
Na nana nana nana.
During round three, his rants came,
'Stop shielding you fool, you weak no brain'
'No pussy shield' as he exclaimed
As he tried hard, to psych my brain.
His attacks, bounced off my shield,
And I watched, as he turned schizo,
Battering my shield over, and over, and over again,
Then his veins, started to pop out of his brain.
Although he can kill me,
He cannot kill me through shield,
You need to get a hammer,
Na nana nana nana.
Round Four came, and my vitality went,
So I quickly, shielded again,
Standing composed, as I waited it out,
My vitality back, bring on five.
Unfortunately, his rants increased,
'motherwhore, loser, bore'
His face was flushed, his eyes balls popped,
I felt disgust, as his mouth frothed.
Although he can kill me,
He cannot kill me through shield
You need to get a hammer,
Na nana nana nana.
Final round, I decided,
There was not much, that I learnt,
His insanity cause him, only, to maul,
I feared his insanity, all the more.
My guild required me, to win or lose,
I cannot, afford a draw.
Seeing his froth, was no fun,
I decided not, to pain him more.
The main point of this story,
Is that you need a hammer,
Do not expect favours,
If you do not have a hammer,
I will use a good shield,
Do not expect me to lie down,
If you don't have a hammer,
Na nana nana nana.
