We will take the defensive position
By building our fortress on the cliff face.
From up here, we’ll see any invasion
Long before they can get close to this place.
It will give us time to boil our grease,
And get each soldier to notch an arrow
That they can aim through the castle wall’s crease.
Our goal is to land the decisive blow
In this holy war we’re destined to win.
It has been foretold within the pages
Of our sacred text, to kill each pagan
Who won’t surrender to this fight’s wages.
It is the way the divinity planned,
Defending out spot on their stolen land.
