Description
#DnDMusic #ComedySong #TavernFolk
"I Was Dead" is a hilarious, high-energy comedy folk anthem dedicated to every tabletop adventurer who has met the grim reaper, only to be dragged back to life by an exhausted cleric. Death might be peaceful, but coming back to the mortal realm only to catch your so-called friends treating your freshly dropped inventory like a free loot box? That’s a natural 20 in betrayal. This upbeat, chaotic track captures the absolute madness of surviving a dungeon with a party of greedy loot goblins you secretly love.
Perfect for your Dungeons & Dragons tavern playlists, funny TTRPG moments, or just getting hyped up for a chaotic game night. Grab your dice, pay the diamond fee to your local healer, and let the world know you woke up and chose violence.
🎵 Lyrics:
I caught a cold, cold sword in the chest
A quick crack of bone, I was laid to rest
The crypt was dark, the silence was sweet
Till a cleric cast a spark at my freezing feet
I felt the silver, the shock, and the stitch
I woke up coughing in a muddy ditch!
You spent the diamond, you chanted the spell
You dragged my spirit from the gates of hell!
I stretch the rust from my reckless frame
And shout my own heroic name!
Because I was dead, yeah, I was dead
(really, really dead)
I met the reaper and I kicked him in the head!
You thought the cold abyss would be my final bed
But I woke up and chose violence instead!
(I was really dead)
But I came back to lead this idiot pack!
So pay the cleric and tell the world who's back!
I wipe the dirt
I check my shirt
Why is the rogue wearing my enchanted skirt?
My pockets are empty, my potions are gone
You split my gold before the crack of dawn?!
You thought I wouldn't notice my boots on the bard?
Dying is easy, but this party is hard!
Because I was dead, yeah, I was dead
(really, really dead)
I met the reaper and I kicked him in the head!
You thought the cold abyss would be my final bed
But I woke up and chose violence instead!
(I was really dead)
But I came back to lead this idiot pack!
So pay the cleric and tell the world who's back!
A casket is a quiet place to think about the past
To realize that the metal and the glory never last
But a second chance...
Is a lethal dance!
A chaotic, crazy, combat trance!
If death is just a door you can pick with a lock
Then swing the heavy sword and let the monsters mock!
I am the ghost with the sharpest blade!
The finest mistake that the gods ever made!
Because I was dead, yeah, I was dead
(really, really dead)
I met the reaper and I kicked him in the head!
You thought the cold abyss would be my final bed
But I woke up and chose violence instead!
(I was really dead)
But I came back to lead this idiot pack!
So pay the cleric and tell the world who's back!
I swear to the gods, I could strangle you all!
You stumble, you bungle, you trip and you fall!
You trigger the traps, you shatter the stealth!
You gamble your lives and you squander our wealth!
But when the darkness won...
you didn't turn and flee
You gave up everything to rescue me!
Because I was dead, yeah, I was dead
(really, really dead)
I met the reaper and I kicked him in the head!
You thought the cold abyss would be my final bed
But I woke up and chose violence instead!
(I was really dead)
But I came back to lead this idiot pack!
So pay the cleric and tell the world who's back!
