From the Dragon's Lair

In the heart of a mountain 
           a ferocious creature 
resides
     his majesty the dragon!
     With huge wings and a 
mouth that breathes hot flames
He lives only for 
gold and related treasures
   His eyes pierce the shadows
His greed is endless 
    Better say your prayers
Ladies and gentleman 
     For there is an ancient creature here
    And he does not fear anything!
   Say your prayers 
    Hope you do not perish 
   Due to his evil will!
