WE BUILT THIS CITY IN AN EVIL COVE (Sung to the tune of⊠(barf)⊠âWe Built This City on Rock-n-Rollâ by the Starship)
We built this city
We built this city in an evil cove
Built this city
We built this city in an evil cove
Say you don't know why
Well, I think that you do
Say you don't remember
But you must have a clue
Knee deep in the witchcraft
Demons in the night
Creepy old lighthouse
With a disappearing light
The mansion is the mystery
Can we find some heroes?
Don't you remember?
We built this city
We built this city in an evil cove
We built this city
We built this city in an evil cove
Built this city
We built this city in an evil cove
Someone's always playing
Evil occult games
Who cares, theyâre long gone
But the evil still remains
We just want a trade route
But the beacon wonât stay lit
Donât think weâll take a look
Weâre all scared as shit
The mansion is the mystery
Can we find some heroes?
Now here comes a big party
Searching for some clues
Letâs let âem keep the treasure
Once theyâve paid their dues
Weâll just count the money
After the trade routeâs clear
Weâll just rake it in
Commerce from far and near
Don't tell us you need us
We're just the adventure hook
Nothing more than text
From the front of Ryan's book
The mansion is the mystery
Can we find some heroes?
Listen to the radio
We built this city
We built this city in an evil cove
We built this city
We built this city in an evil cove
Built this city
We built this city in an evil cove

I dunno if it's a repeat.

I think it is a repeat, but I also think that my next one may be a repeat, too.

Lighthouse of the Haunted One
(to the tune of The Animal's "House of the Rising Sun")
There's a lighthouse in Fair Haven
That's haunted by a ghost
It's kept the ships from safe harbor
And dashed them on the coast
My mother was a halfling
She died when I was born
My father turned to a life of crime
In two his heart was torn
He was killed when I was little
Waterdeep raised me well
So I ask myself why I traveled so far
To this lighthouse straight from hell
------ organ solo ------
Oh mother tell your children
Not to do what I have done
To take a job in Fair Haven:
Lighthouse of the Haunted One
Well, I got one foot in the harbor
The other foot in the grave
I'd go straight back to Waterdeep
If only we hin weren't brave
Well, there's a lighthouse in Fair Haven
They call the Haunted One
And it's been the ruin of many a poor hin
I fear my time is done

Anybody else down for a plan? We have time before we enter the lighthouse. We think it may be haunted. Let's take a day to prepare spells that may be of use in such a situation. We may be dealing with ghosts, etc. A day may also give us a chance to find someone who has been in the lighthouse or knows more about the creepy family that owned it. Also we still have an exploding donkey.

When will I get to see the Magic Cave... to the tune of
Linda Ronstadt's 'When Will I be Loved'
I've been jones'n
hopin for some rollin'
Oh, When will I be there
I've been pushed down
I've been pushed 'round
When will I be there
When I find a new chicken
With a coop that is a pimpin'
That GM he always breaks my heart
It happens every time
I've been made dead (almost)
I've been teased
Oh, When will I be there
When I find a new cave
That I want to die in
Distant sound of mournful chicken
It happens every time
Oh, I've been cheatin'
Been mistreat'n
My favorite party
Miss'n my special special farty
Tell me, when will I be there
