Don't Mess Around With 'Dil

Don't Mess Around With Jim- Jim Croce

An account of the fight between Lykouleon and Nadil to win Raseleane.

Rune-boy is a faerie.

Thatz is a lazy bum.

Nadil is a snappy-dressing, dragon-killing

Princess-stealing son of a gun.

Yeah he's big and bad

As they've ever had

But he's louder than Rath can cuss.

And when the demons all get together at night

You know they all call Nadil "Boss"

Just because.

And they say you don't tug on Shydeman's cape

You don't echo Lady Jilge.

You don't pull the arm offa old Bierrez

And you don't mess around with 'Dil.

Well, outa south Draqueen came a Dragonlord

He say "I'm lookin for that youkai 'Dil

I ride the Light Dragon

My name's Lykouleon

But back home, they call me 'L'

Yeah I'm lookin for the king of the castle

Kinda tall and his heart is black

He done took my honey

And it may sound funny

But I've come to get my honey back."

And everyone say ACK

Dontcha know you don't tug on Shydeman's cape

You don't echo Lady Jilge.

You don't pull the arm offa old Bierrez

And you don't mess around with 'Dil.

Well a hush fell over the throne room

And Nadil put down the queen.

And when the cursin were done

The only part that wasn't bloody

Was the soles of Lykouleon's feet.

Yeah he were cursed in about a hundred places

But he picked him up his sword

And you better believe

They sung a different kinda story

When Nadil's head hit the floor.

Now they say, you don't tug on Shydeman's cape

You don't echo Lady Jilge.

You don't pull that arm offa old Bierrez

And you don't mess around with L.
