Purple Worm

Derived from Purple Rain by Prince.

I never knew I’d see a Crystal Arbor
I always knew adventuring brought harm
I only wanted to stop the Jester’s intrigue
I didn’t want to see the
Insides of a purple worm

Purple worm, purple worm
Acid burnt me, squeezing harm
Purple worm, purple worm
Took all I had to stop
Digestion by a purple worm

Never saw the flash of halfling’s smiting
Nor saw Zeke defended by his magic stave
Didn’t see Rune bleed and run to save me
From becoming worm turds
On the floor of a deep cave

Purple worm, Purple worm
Arcane transfer brought free-dom
Purple Worm, Purple Worm
Keep me dry and safe,
Outside of a purple worm

Gleaner's blade, behemoth banished
Warlock sent Rune far from home
Tortured by that baby shark song
Returned to make fresh chutney
Of that purple worm.

Purple worm, purple worm
Warlock’s minion, maw of doom
Purple Worm, purple worm
The tunnel terror slain by
Enigma’s might of arms

{cittern solo with lute rhythm}
Purple worm, Purple worm
Jester foiled, Warlock doomed
Purple Worm, Purple Worm
Keep me dry and safe,
Outside of a purple worm
