It felt a bit like a movie in which two stoners try to steal a military helicopter

This thread has inspired me to make a little something up of my own...
For benefit of the blissfully uninitiated (and uncertainty about the forum rules) I won't specifically direct anyone to the song this is sung to, but fans of Electric Six (or Abraham Lincoln) should know how to follow along:

Quote from: Dwarf Fort
Girl!
I wanna take you to a Dwarf Fort,
I wanna take you to a Dwarf Fort,
I wanna take you to a
Dwarf Fort

Let's start a war
Start an elephant war
At the Dwarf Fort
Dwarf Fort
Dwarf Fort

(guitar solo)

Now tell me do ya
Oh do you mine any Bismuth?
I wanna smelt all your Bismuth
At the Dwarf Fort
Dwarf Fort

I've got ☼Steel Bolt☼ to put in you
I've got ☼Steel Bolt☼ to put in you

Is it here? In this veeeein?
Hold on to this pick. This is not just a game.
Always i wanna MINE with you
get microCLINE with you
and live in harmony harmony ... OH GOLD! !

I have been inspired to complete this worthwhile attempt!


Strike the earth, I see
You've started mining!
Willing to die for me
Never stop mining!

When it's hot (When it's hot) inside (inside)
Have we struck a vein?
Hold on to your picks
'cause this IS no game.

Always i wanna MINE with you
get microCLINE with you
and live in harmony harmony OH GEMS!
Always i wanna MINE with you
get microCLINE with you
and live in harmony harmony OH GEMS!

Melting the ice for me
By pumping that magma!
Wrestle all those Unicorns I see
While I sit back and sip Java

When you're told (When you're told) to dig (to dig)
Have we struck a vein?
Hold on to your picks
'cause this IS no game.

Always i wanna MINE with you
get microCLINE with you
and live in harmony harmony OH GEMS! (The ceilings coming crashing down)
Always i wanna MINE with you
get microCLINE with you
and live in harmony harmony OH GEMS! (The whole ceilings coming crashing down)

I'm looking through a hole in an elf
I'm seeing dwarves through this hole in an elf
I'm getting closer to the end of the mine
I'm living easy where the sun doesn't shine

I'm living in a room without any chests
I'm living disgusted because I get bothered by pests
The dinning hall fixes all that I've said
Those statues realy mess with my head

Hole in the earth, gateway to spirals
Portal of glass, through it I pass

I'm seeing the kobolds that disappear in the pits
The shooting's easy if you've got the right bits
And even though I'm sitting looking for socks
I don't believe there's anything other than rocks

Hole in the earth, gateway to spirals
Portal of glass, through it I pass

I've watched the dwarves of war enjoying their feast
I've seen the elven world go down in the east
The food of love became the goods for our trade
And now we're living on the profits we've made

Forget down stairs, make an up stair
And then what?  Mine the sky? . . .  Actually, that'd be awesome.

It doesn't fit the syllable pattern though... :P "elephant" even has the stress on the same syllable! And y'know, Boatmurdered and all.
