How Do I Live [Without Root]?

Disclaimer: I do not own LeAnne Rimes' song, 'How Do I Live?', and am not technically doing anything to infringe on anybody's rights, since the title's different, the lyrics are different, and the tune is all up to the reader's mind! ;; But for the sake of being cooperative, I make no money off of this and I also no not own EverQuest, that awesome, addictive bane of all physical exercise except movement of the mouse-clicking finger. ;;

Hope you like this--it's the ode to the spell Root, which holds your enemy mob (or your Barbarian Warrior, in some cases that I'm all too familiar with... Cough) down while you pommul it or flee like a bat out of hell. =) Enjoy!

How would I, get through one night without Root?

If I'd be alive without Root...

What kind of pain would find me?

Oh, I need Root in my book, need it to hold

All those nasty mobs and trolls

If Root ever fizzed,

So help me, I'd be beaten within an inch of my life!

And tell me, now,

How could I live without Root?

(I can't cast SoW!)

How would I sleep without Root,

With mobs on the go?

How could I even vaguely survive?

How could I, how would I, oh, try not to die?

Without Root, there'd be no skip in my stride,

There'd be lots of fear in my life...

There'd be no exp for me!

And I, Tunare I don't know what I would do

I'd be doomed if I lost Root

If Root ever fizzed,

So help me, I'd be runnin' for the rest of my life!

And tell me, now,

Where would I be without Root?

I'm scared to know...

How could I eat without Root,

When Rations are low?

How could I even

Wash my dirty clothes?

How could I, why would I, oh, how could I live?

Please tell me, Tunare,

That I'd stay alive

If Root ever fizzed,

So help me I'd be bruised up 'til I looked like a Darkelf!

Can't you see that Root's my one ticket to staying alive?

And tell me, now,

How could I fight without Root?

I'd just get killed...

How could I loot without Root,

Just other spells?

How could I even sleep at night?

How would I, how might I, oh, try not to die?

Hehe--please review! I love song parodies--do you?
