Icecrown: The Musical

[Texaporte]

Gee, Tirion Fordring
(to the tune of Gee, Officer Krupke, with apologies to Stephen Sondheim)

Texaporte:
Deeeear kindly Highlord Fordring
We can't just throw grenades
And Arthas' mechanics
All keep on wiping raids!
Our king he is all crazy
While Jaina she just cries!
By the Light, man, naturally we'll wipe!

Raid:
Gee, Tirion Fordring,
We all feel like scrubs
We never got much practice on heroic Anub
We ain't hardcore raiders,
We're casual guys
And these mechanics make us die!

Texaporte:
Make us die!

Raid:
Make us die, make us die,
Make us hurt and die!
Like Infest, that one just makes us die!

Disc priest: (Spoken)
That one's not so bad though, guys.

Texaporte: (Spoken)
Lemme get through phase 1!

Disc priest:
Just sing it to the adds!

Texaporte:
Deeeeear kindly shambling horrors
Your enrage freakin' hurts
You turn real big and angry
And punch right through my skirt!
The Lich King gives us a plague
We need to spread it 'round!
By me own beard, cleanse it or we're down!

Disc Priest:
Cleansed!

Tirion Fordring, you're not worth a knock
We're getting bashed by ghouls while you're stuck in an ice block
We've handled the plague and we're on to phase two -
Now time to run out or we're doomed!

Texaporte:
Or we're doomed!

Raid:
We are doomed we are doomed,
We are mostly doomed,
If we don't move just right we are doomed!

Ranged DPS: (spoken)
Hear ye, hear ye! Ranged spirits are spawning and if you don't taunt them, we will get one-shotted!

Melee: (spoken)
We keep getting aggro too!

Ranged DPS:
Arthas is back, get in!

Texaporte:
Myyyyyyyyy healer's getting kidnapped
Defile's being cast
The ranged stands like they're all sapped
Soul Reaper on my ass
The melee's all around and
The val'kyr's almost out!
Flying gnome butt! Black goo on the ground!

Arthas
Yes, Tirion Fordring, they shouldn't be here!
This raid won't get my loot until they shoot more ice spheres!
The platform's expanded, you're on to phase three!
Time to go on a killing spree!

Texaporte
On a spree!

Raid:
Killing spree! Killing spree!
It is now phase three!
Arthas waaaants a big ol' killing spree!

Texaporte: (spoken)
Okay, maybe phase 2 wasn't so bad. But the Lich King's platform keeps getting smaller!

Ranged:
So take 'im back to the middle!

Texaporte:
Deeeeear kindly Highlord Fordring,
I'm sorry that we're noobs
We're sad that the Ashbringer
Is stuck in an ice cube
We needed welfare buffing
To get this boss to drop
By the Light, man, will the hurting stop?

Arthas:
Tirion Fordring, you'll wish you weren't born!
This raid won't get my loot, they'll get some time in Frostmourne!
It ain't just a question of saving the king,
These ghosts are really gonna sting!

Texaporte:
It all stings!

Raid:
It all stings, it all stings,
We hate fighting kings,
This phase haaaas five things that cause wiping!

Ranged DPS:
The trouble is defile

Healers:
The trouble is infest

Melee:
The trouble's spirits vile

That one hunter who always gets targeted by boss abilities:
The trouble is harvest

Tanks:
The trouble is the debuff!

Arthas:
I have just had enough!

Raid:
Fordring, we can't handle all this stuff!

Gee, Tirion Fordring,
Isn't it that just nice?
We've all just died and your ass is still stuck in that ice
Gee, Tirion Fordring,
What are we to do?
King Terenas wants to
Rez you!

Oh

Em

Gee

I seriously just about split a rib at this one. Not only my favourite musical (Bernstein = genius), but I can just hear this being sung emphatically by The Jets. THIS really does need to get recorded. I see a Machinema entry in to this year's BlizzCon competition...?

[Daewen]

I'm not sure anyone's recorded any of our fights thus far, to use as Machinema, and I'm sure a lot of specifically directed clips would be needed for a good entry. Plus, I daresay our musical is just too long to enter. But maybe we could make a CD of all the tracks...

Good points. I was referring specifically to 'Gee, Tirion Fordring', and since that room is aggro free until the fight starts, I reckon it wouldn't be too difficult to choreograph some sweet moves.
