lyrics
This is a song that tells of the death of my dad
He was cut down in battle, but I'm not sad
He was a hero and I am proud to bear his name
And one day I hope to share in his glory and fame
CHORUS
You fought to your last breath, and you watched as the valkyries flew,
And daddy, when I grow up I want to be dead, just like you
Daddy when I last saw you I was sat on your knee
When they carried you away, they left part of your leg with me
You said "keep your head in the chin in the air keep your feet on the ground"
But they buried you quickly and got it the other way round
CHORUS
I don't want to put on my 'jamas and head off to bed
I want to drink twelve horns of mead and get out of my head
I don't want to go to school and learn how to rhyme
I just want to go to the Valhall and have a good punch up
CHORUS
I'll head off to battle and lay down my young Norscan life
I can't lift your sword but I found your old fruit peeling knife
I don't have the reach to strike at men's heads or their hearts
But by Loki they'd better watch out for their sensitive parts
CHORUS
I want to be riddled with arrows and fall to my knees, just like you
I want to die on top of a pile of my dead enemies, just like you
I want to die howling defiance and cursing my foes, just like you
I want to see pieces of my brain drip out through my nose, just like you
I want to feel my life force draining through deep tissue cuts, just like you
I want to get stabbed in my stomach and spill out my guts, just like you
I want to be choking on blood when I swear my last vow, just like you
I want to be smothered in chocolate and fed to the drow, just like you
