Quote Wars Revisited
The Huns held us here
For nigh on three years
For which case we've been held libel
They've fired their best
And all for the rest
Including the Gutenberg Bible
As we hid in this trench
The unbearable stench
With Languages long since forgotten
The Quotes which we've tried
And those which have died
Now lay on the battlefield rotten
It's a curious thing
Whether pauper or king
When Hope seems to flee in the night
Without future in hand
We'll still make our stand
And never give up the good fight
The time has come now
To retake our vows
As we climb up, onto the glen
To defend from attack
All those who lack
Adequate paper or pen
