From Jayne (Lady of Pain) Chaos - "Blighted Girl" (to the tune of "Barbie Girl" by Aqua)
Hi Blightie
Hi Kwellen
Do you wanna go hunt some hides?
Sure Kwellen
Follow me...
(Chorus) I'm a blighted girl, in a gifted world
Life's elastic, it's so spastic.
you can't find my hair, yet drag me anywhere.
Incantation, that is your creation.
Come on Blightie, let's go farmin'
(Chorus)
I'm a bad blighted girl, in a gifted world,
Buff me up, stay and fight, I'm your servant.
You are my flame, fire'n'Ash, feel the Gigeroth thing,
Follow me here, summon me there, Thank ye thank ye.
You can tank, you can pull, if you say "I'm only yours"
boo woo ah..
(Chorus)
Come on Blightie, let's go farmin'
(4 times)
Make me cast, see me hover, do whatever you please,
I can act like a Lava, I can beg, but no knees.
Come thumpin', be my fiend, let us kill them again,
hit the town, ghoul around, let's go farmin'
You can tank, you can pull, if you say: "I'm only yours"
You can tank, you can pull, if you say: "I'm only yours"
Come on Blightie, let's go farmin'
(4 times)
(2x Chorus)
Come on Blightie, let's go farmin
(4 times)
Oh, I love being on the run!
Well Blightie, we just got startled.
Oh, I love you Kwellen.

From Sephiranoth ShadowSeeker of Order - "Istarian Raspberry" (to the tune of Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody")
Is this the real life?
Is this just a fantasy?
Caught in the Deadlands
No escape from reality
Open your eyes
Look up to the skies and see...
I'm a Confectioner, I need some sympathy Because the air is green, thunder rolls Blight is nigh, Heals are low, Anyway the wind blows, I can smell Fyakki, Fy-a-kki...
Helcat, I need a rez,
That 'ol Mhedon stomped my head, made the earth quake, now I'm dead Death Points, now I've fifty one...
Ambrosia is silver I can't pay
Helcat, o-o-o-oh, didn't mean to make you die I forgot to say that Mhedon had a brother And a wife, and a son. Time for me to recall...
Dragon, your youth is gone
The Adult Rite is thine
Wings are waiting at the Storm
Take ye to the Spiral, you must face the Shade And the Cold one and the one that walks the sands Dragon, o-o-o-oh ( seek to ride the wind roads) You probably will die Make sure you have a few healer friends along
I see the sky twist and it's bearing down upon me Rek-oo-lar, Val-key-oth, Umyarr golem tango Thunder and the Lightning, Fool and Fair are dancing free Eastern Deadlands, 'Bominators Satyr islands, Blue Vexators So you can grow they must go, yes they must go
But I'm Sephiranoth and Nobody loves me
( He's Sephiranoth and none understands it) Don't let it talk or our ears, they will bleed!
I did Fall, Five must Feast, it was long ago...
Bismillah! No - we will not let you speak - I am Fool!
Bismillah! We will not let you speak - You are Wise!
Bismillah! We will not let you speak - She is no more!
Will not let you go - No-one and None ( ever) Never let you go - I am Bound Never let me go - ooo No, no, no, no, no, no, no - Oh mama mia, mama mia, mama mia let me go Serilian has a Binding put aside for me for me for me

Thwickers Weebleworth of Chaos - "Cooks Just Wanna Make Dough" (to the tune of Cyndi Lauper's "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun")
Spent seven hours on a gruok stew
Sold only a couple: like literally two.
A life of poverty is no way to go
Oh, cooks just wanna make do-ough.
Yeah, confectioners wanna make dough.
Beef peppered jerky, chicken pot pie.
They'll make you feel better every time that you die.
Served up in style, with a classy Bordeaux
In exchange, we just need some do-ough
Oh, confectioners just want some dough.
That's all we really waaaaaaant
Is some doooooooough
All this ambrosia makes sales so slow
Oh, cooks, they just want some do-ough
Yeah, confectioners wanna make dough.
Haven't sold fried minnow in over a year
It's rotting in storage; you can smell it from here.
Don't have the heart to give that batch the heave-ho.
Oh, confectioners need to make do-ough
Yeah, us cooks, we just need some dough.
Cooks, we want
We wanna make dough, Cooks
Wanna make dough
We just wanna
We just wanna
No surprise, I guess, that no one will bite
In a world of immortals with no appetite.
What wise guy said you always reap what you sow?
All our work, it brings us no do-ough.
Oh, cooks, we wanna make dough

Klaus Wulfenbach of Chaos - "Tinker's Song" (to the tune of "Tigger's Song")
The wonderful thing about Tinkers
Is Tinkers make wonderful things
Their gloves are made out of rubber
Their pockets are loaded with springs
They're freaky, geeky, squeeky, cheeky
Fun, fun, fun, fun, FUN!
But the most wonderful thing about Tinkers
Is finally finding one!
The wonderful thing about Tinkers
Is Tinkers help crafters to craft
Clothes loaded with struts and with hinges
Though cargo hats make you look daft
They're freaky, geeky, squeeky, cheeky
Fun, fun, fun, fun, FUN!
But the most wonderful thing about Tinkers
Is finally finding one!
Tinkers are popular fellahs.
Tinkers are awfully sweet.
All of them seem to be hiding,
And thats why I repeat and repeat...
The wonderful thing about Tinkers
Is Tinkers make wonderful things
Their gloves are made out of rubber
Their pockets are loaded with springs
They're freaky, geeky, squeeky, cheeky
Fun, fun, fun, fun, FUN!
But the most wonderful thing about Tinkers
Is finally finding one!
Fi-i-i-i-nly finding one!
(WHIRRRRRRR!!...)!!!
