No Viking Way

For days now, my wife, i and some friends, have been working on costumes for Viking's day at our up coming Renaissance festival, went suddenly Poetry Fever hit, this is the result---hope you enjoy it---God Bless 

No Viking Way

I used to be like Hagar The Horrible 
Wearing things that were despicable and deplorable
But now those days have past
I stopped dressing like an ass
And the way I look today, is just adorable 

I stopped killing wild animals for fur
Thought the anger from the Gods it may incur
I just have to make my stance
And start wearing woolen pants
I'm sorry, this is one pot, I must stir

Yes, I'm laying down my sword and my axe
No more Nordstroms, I'm shopping down at Saks
I'm over leather, Yes it's true
a polyester blend will do
I saw one that I liked, at MaraMax

So, say goodbye to the horns upon my head
It's time I think, to put those things to bed
With some silk and some cotton 
The old way's soon forgotten
The Brand New Viking way is here instead

Now it's true, it's gonna take some work
To stop dressing, like some big bad crumby jerk
But with our influences and our passion
We'll create a whole new fashion
And when they see how Hot we look
They'll go Berserk

G'day Jerry ... and did they go berserk Jerry or were they calling out for the return of the raping, murdering, pillaging Hagar - Lindsay
