This song has been stuck in my head for a while now, and as with many things, I woke up with the last bit suddenly there in my head. Hah!

Dire Straits' Money for Nothing, with thanks - and curses! - to Savage Grace for the title.

I want my, I want my PvP...

Now look at them bandits, that's the way you do it.
You die in combat and you rez for free.
That ain't dying, that's the way you do it.
Silver for nothing and your gear for free.
Now that ain't dying, that's the way you do it.
Let me tell you them thieves ain't dumb,
Maybe get a sword cut on your cheek or belly.
Maybe lose a joint off of your thumb.

We got to get this essence and metal.
Crafted weapon deliveries.
We got to move these enchanted tokens.
We got to move this armor plus three.

See the little singer in the blue robes in the back, there?
Yeah buddy, with the tambourine.
That little lady's got her own smallholding.
That little lady, she's a bandit queen.

We got to get this essence and metal.
Crafted weapon deliveries.
We got to move these enchanted tokens.
We got to move this armor plus three.

I should've learned to shoot and stab things.
I should've learned to sneak and run.
Look at that merchant, he got the money and the jewels.
Man, we could have some fun.
That guy up there, what's that? Some kind of peace talks?
Sounding like a carebear means more stuff for me.
That ain't dying, that's the way you do it.
Get your silver for nothing and your gear for free.

We got to get this essence and metal.

Now that ain't dying, that's the way you do it.

silver from nothing?
dang, I can barely to gold from lead!

(but i hear Savage Grace can do gold from steel)


Savage Grace's 2 days of far flung banditry netted almost nothing.

Poachers, though... that's some easy pickings, there... and you're always close to home to bank it.

Just stop tossing out those song titles, OK? Because they get stuck in my head and then I can't get them out til I write the whole song!

(Why yes, yes I do have voices singing in my head. Why are you looking at me like that?!)

Love the original of this song, so of course its now stuck in my head (though Savage Grace, you did start that with the song title ;) Stuck in my head for week).

Awesome job, Deianira!
