Title:Building A Mystery
you come out at night
that's when amusement comes
and the players roll dice
and the GM groans
you strut your miniatures
and your character sheet
and a cross from a caricature
still incomplete
you're building an RPG
you keep all your notes
underneath your Drama Dice
and you won't give up the quotes
at least not more than twice
you bring dice to the game
and a smile that won't wash away
can you say they roll the same
without your Hybris getting in the way
oh you're so beautiful
with an edge and a charm
but so careful
when Sidhe's in your arms
(chorus)
'cause you're working
building an RPG
holding on and holding it in
yeah you're working
building an RPG
and handing out XP
you woke up screaming aloud
a prayer or apnea?
you play on our fears
and hold back our tears
give us a traitor
with a know it all grin
just when we need one
when the evening's thin
oh it's a beautiful
a beautiful messed up plan
we'll get our Cecil back
as soon as we can...
chorus
repeat chorus
