Description
All gather round to hear the taleEvery evil seeks to upstage
For no terror could quite compare
To the dark genie age
They came clothed in lies of grandeur
To the bright leprechauns
Sold answers to whispered wishes
And in return got pawns
Only nine strong were those who signed
To seal fates of hundreds
Pompous, prideful, and petulant
Mind and heart quite blunted
All gather round to hear the tale
Every evil seeks to upstage
For no terror could quite compare
To the dark genie age
One wish was used for gold
Mountains upon mountains
The next for armor and weapons
For armies of thousands
To grant these things was no small feat
It lay beyond reach
For even great genies alone
Others’ skill they did leech
All gather round to hear the tale
Every evil seeks to upstage
For no terror could quite compare
To the dark genie age
The genies warping powers took
Away life’s loving breath
But they stole it from those they’d bound
So they would avoid death
The leprechauns had grown weary
No energy just stress
Yet still they tread on if only
To await sad death’s caress
All gather round to hear the tale
Every evil seeks to upstage
For no terror could quite compare
To the dark genie age
