When Dr. Daniel pulls his blade,
don't count on nothing to be save.
I wouldn't count of my own fingers
to stay attached to my own hands.
If it bounces at your feet,
don't pick it up, it's not good to eat.
Just leave it lying there
and walk straight on home.
If Michael draws his blade,
he'll send old Hob back where he came
writhing like a snake,
ground the dragon in a cave.
In England he goes by George
but he's still a wall against the dragon's scourge.
Swing his blade with all his might,
sword gripped with both his hands.
