At my game last night we are exploring the darklands on behalf of a huge dwarven metropolis. We had trouble remembering the name of the Dwarf town and half the time we just call it Dwarfopolis. So the idea popped into my head to call it Dwarfstantinople. Any way, that led to the song by They Might Be Giants. I reworked the lyrics and felt I should post them on here in the hopes that someone more musically inclined than I am could put together a nice Youtube parody video.

Lyrics:
Elfstanbul was Dwarfstantinople
Now it's Elfstanbul, not Dwarfstantinople
Been a long time gone, Dwarfstantinople
Now it's Elvish delight on a moonlit night

Every gal in Dwarfstantinople
Lives in Elfstanbul, not Dwarfstantinople
So if you've a date in Dwarfstantinople
She'll be waiting in Elfstanbul

Even old New Orc was once New Halfling-Land
Why they changed it I can't say
People just liked it better that way

So take me back to Dwarfstantinople
No, you can't go back to Dwarfstantinople
Been a long time gone, Dwarfstantinople
Why did Dwarfstantinople get the works?
That's nobody's business but the Orcs

Elfstanbul (Elfstanbul)
Elfstanbul (Elfstanbul)

Even old New Orc was once New Halfling-Land
Why they changed it I can't say
People just liked it better that way

Elfstanbul was Dwarfstantinople
Now it's Elfstanbul, not Dwarfstantinople
Been a long time gone, Dwarfstantinople
Why did Dwarfstantinople get the works?
That's nobody's business but the Orcs

So take me back to Dwarfstantinople
No, you can't go back to Dawrfstantinople
Been a long time gone, Dwarfstantinople
Why did Dwarfstantinople get the works?
That's nobody's business but the Orcs

Elfstanbul


:''D

Superb.

Dwarfstantinople. Not Dwarfstanbul?


I posted before reading the full lyrics, and you already made the joke! LOL.


This is funny.


Awesome!
