Follow the Northern Star

My love has gone and left me

            called to fight in the War

I know that he still loves me

            and follows the Northern Star

 

CHORUS:

We are the Northern Army

            come to win the War (or listen and hear us roar)

Fighting for what we believe in

We follow the Northern Star

 

Our Chiv barely wear any armor

            They don’t need to rhino hide

They’re so quick that you can’t see them

            ‘Till they hit you from your offside

 

Our Unbelts use many weapons

            pole, sword, spear and axe

They often outrun their Chiv’rly

            In their eagerness to attack

 

Don’t worry ‘bout the rabble

            They always have some fun

Gang up on the enemy

            and beat ‘em ‘till they’re done

 

Others have learned to fear us

            Run from the field they may

Thinking to live ‘til tomorrow

            Our archers kill them anyway

 

Bridge, field or mountain pass,

            castle it doesn’t matter

Outnumbered or outflanked

            Our ballista will make you flatter

 

Northern Shores, North or Central

            Our Army takes all kinds

We even let Feral lead us

            ‘cause it’s just a “State of Mind”

 

ALTERNATIVES:

 

We are the Northern Army

            come to win the War

Fighting for what we believe in  (Fighting for King and Kingdom)

We follow the Northern Star (listen and hear us roar)

 

Our Chiv barely wear any armor

            They don’t need to rhino hide

They’re so quick that you can’t see them

            ‘Till they hit you from your offside (blind side)
