Well, since Mother's voice is not in my head, the first Musician I hear singing
that, get's punched into submission.
Then a growled question. "Where. Did. You. Learn. That. Song?"

Many of you will hear the following song being sung around town by street
musicians and by some of the minstrels in taverns. Bonaluria's skald does not
sing it; or at least you have not heard it.
Hagar the Coward
Hagar was a little dwarf
Cowardice was his trade
He'd run at the first sign of trouble
With no plans to stay
Chorus:
Oh, Hagar, Hagar
A dwarf so brave and bold
He'd hide at the sound of battle
And leave his friends in the cold
He'd tremble at the slightest noise
His knees would start to shake
He feared the dark, he feared the light
He feared every step he'd take
Chorus:
Oh, Hagar, Hagar
A dwarf so brave and bold
He'd hide at the sound of battle
And leave his friends in the cold
But did Hagar foind his heart
And courage he did not find
He stood not tall, he faced his fears
And wet his small behind
Chorus:
Oh, Hagar, Hagar
A dwarf so sad and cold
He'd hide at the sound of battle
And leave his friends in the cold
