lyrics
I was born a wolf
but raised humans and rescued
You will laugh at me
because I like to drink my juice
You accuse me
of taking honor for a laugh
but I can’t take away
what you do not have
The way of the warrior
To be an honored son
The way of the warrior
Is not an easy one
Hear my battle cry
’Tis a good day to die
To do a deed worthy of being sung
She may be impressed
how I handle my sword so wise
You must think me a fool
to make such transparent lies
Plans that you have made
are ill-begotten and conceived
But I recognize
the same brashness lies within me
The way of the warrior
To be an honored son
The way of the warrior
Is not an easy one
Hear my battle cry:
’Tis a good day to die
To do a deed worthy of being sung
You ask my favor
This foolish errand I won't help
’Tis not what I owe them
It is what I owe myself
Though I have no mate
My son is far, safe and sound
The way to rid the pain
Suiting up to stand your ground
The way of the warrior
To be an honored son
The way of the warrior
Is not an easy one
Hear my battle cry:
’Tis a good day to die
To do a deed worthy of being sung
but raised humans and rescued
You will laugh at me
because I like to drink my juice
You accuse me
of taking honor for a laugh
but I can’t take away
what you do not have
The way of the warrior
To be an honored son
The way of the warrior
Is not an easy one
Hear my battle cry
’Tis a good day to die
To do a deed worthy of being sung
She may be impressed
how I handle my sword so wise
You must think me a fool
to make such transparent lies
Plans that you have made
are ill-begotten and conceived
But I recognize
the same brashness lies within me
The way of the warrior
To be an honored son
The way of the warrior
Is not an easy one
Hear my battle cry:
’Tis a good day to die
To do a deed worthy of being sung
You ask my favor
This foolish errand I won't help
’Tis not what I owe them
It is what I owe myself
Though I have no mate
My son is far, safe and sound
The way to rid the pain
Suiting up to stand your ground
The way of the warrior
To be an honored son
The way of the warrior
Is not an easy one
Hear my battle cry:
’Tis a good day to die
To do a deed worthy of being sung

Adam Sakellarides Los Angeles, California

He sings about love, science, politics, socially awkward people, and things like that. Now armed with witty lyrics, catchy melodies, and a bunch of mediocre jokes, he's ready to entertain you. ... more
