Dungeon Shanties

Players in adventure games (TTRPGs) behave much like pirates. They probably should sing songs about their experiences.

Dead Companion

(Sung to the tune of Drunken Sailor)

What can you do with a dead companion?
What can you do with a dead companion?
What can you do with a dead companion,
Deep down in the dungeon?

Chorus
Run, run, run for the exit!
Run, run, run for the exit!
Run, run, run for the exit
Deep down in the dungeon!

Heave him out and bury him proper
Heave him out and bury him proper
Heave him out and bury him proper
Deep down in the dungeon!

Chorus

Loot the body and let it rot there
Loot the body and let it rot there
Loot the body and let it rot there
Deep down in the dungeon!

Chorus

Feed him to your mates as iron rations
Feed him to your mates as iron rations
Feed him to your mates as iron rations
Deep down in the dungeon!

Chorus

That's what we do with a dead companion
That's what we do with a dead companion
That's what we do with a dead companion
Deep down in the the dungeon.

Chorus
