Lyrics of Arrow in the Knee by Johnny Medlar
Gather round ye people
And mind to listen well.
I got an epic tale to tell you from the land of Tamriel.
I was traveling north of Cyrodiil in the province of Skyrim.
I had just arrived in Whiterun and that where i met him.
Well, to me he looked like just another guard walking down the street.
But to him it seemed i stuck right out, like a bald khajiit.
And he walked right up to me with a look of nostalgia in his eye.
He said, "We are not so diffrent,..."
"...You and i."
Then he said,
"I used to be an adventurer like you,"
"But then i took an arrow in the knee!"
"Just ask any of my fellow guards---"
"They′ll tell you that it's true---"
"That i took an arrow in the knee!"
Well he told me he was on duty, so he couldnt stay to chat.
Someone stole a sweetroll,
And he was investigating that.
I said, "dont let me hold you up, sir."
And then we parted ways.
I mubled to myself,
"This is looking like one of those days."
I was feeling kind of tired
Decided to head right for the inn.
But i′d never been here before.
Didnt know wich direction it was in.
I walked up to another guard,
And asked him where i could find a bed.
He looked at me,
Then he smiled and said,
"I used to be an adventurer like you,"
"But then i took an arrow in the knee!"
"Just ask any of my fellow guards---"
"They'll tell you that it's true---"
"That i took an arrow in the knee!"
The first one was kind of random,
But now i was freaking out.
I was thinking i should run away,
Or use a dragon shout.
I was starting to calm down,
And thats when i looked up and saw...
Another guard comming right toward me!
That′s when i said,
"FUS RO DAH!"
Well in retrospect
That turned out to be not the greatest plan,
Now i′m sprinting for the stables,
Running as fast as i can.
But it's just my luck---
The stablemaster know how to use a bow.
Now he′s aiming for my legs!
Oh NoOoOoOOo!
"I used to be an adventurer like you,"
"But then i took an arrow in the knee!"
"Just ask any of my fellow guards---"
"They'll tell you that it′s true---"
"We've all taken arrow in the knees!"
"An arrow in the Kneeeeeeee!"
"An arrow in the Kneeeee!"
So very painful!
"I used to be an adventurer like you,"
"But then i took an arrow in the knee!"
"Just ask any of my fellow guards---"
"They′ll tell you that its true"
"We've all taken arrow in the knees!"
4x"An arrow in the Kneeeee!"
THE END
