Knightsland National Anthem
« on: September 20, 2006, 03:14:06 PM »
With apologies to my german friends, I need a german speaker to come up with some lyrics for "Knightsland Uber Alles!".  I think it is time that we Knights, being  almost always outnumbered and attacked from two sides, need a song to steel us in our resolve to drive the Bishop and Rook "shafen bumsen" (extra points if you can fit that or its equivalent into the lyrics ;) ) from the skies.  

I considered multiple tunes when thinking about a Knightsland National Anthem.  The tune for O' Canada! was a close 2nd, but O' Knightsland just doesn't sing right ;)  I didn't feel right about ripping off Britain again (especially since the Star  Spangled Banner's tune is already a rip off of an old english drinking song), and the Marseillaise seemed more fitting for the Bishops.

Why not just rip off Queen,

We could use "We are the Champions" or "Another One Bites the Dust", or "We Will Rock You"

I would rather rip off Weird Al...."Another One Rides the Bus". :)
