Glitter and Shine

Honor is dull and glory is blind.
The only thing that matter is what glitters and shines.
For that the only thing that makes the world go around.
So where off to our next job to get what matters the most of all.
Raising our banners for all to see to know that we’re for hire.
We sell our swords to the highest bidder.
We don’t stop until the money drops.
It doesn't matter what job we take, were ready to bash a few skulls to hear a few sacks that go clickity clack
We can't wait to get payed with what glitters and shines.
Glitters and shines.
We'll slit some throats for a few gold coins.
We'll break a couple bones for couple of gems.
You don't want to know what we'll do for a pound of silver.
For the only thing that matters is what glitters and shine.
Glitters and shines.
Just rubbing two coin together, just makes the job more satisfying.
It doesn't matter if we go off to war or be bodyguards to some old fart.
As long as we get what is owed to us or there will be hell to pay.
Sure it sounds a little greedy, but we are just very needy.
We'll get to wear the fanciest cloths and guzzle down the finest of wines.
We enjoy ourselves with the pleasures we buy, knowing that were set for life.
Until we spend it all away on luxuries that clean our pouches out.
All thanks to everything that glitters and shines.
Glitters and shines.
We don’t mind getting our hands a little dirty.
We could just be decent folk to avoid any violence.
But why would we spoil all the fun in that.
Why toil away on measly scrapes.
We all know where the real money is really at.
Sure we have to do away with a few poor saps.
But it's nothing personal its only in the contract.
When the job is done you better not give us credit
Or you're really going to get it.
With you face buried in the dirt.
While we’re kicking you while your on the ground.
Because we only accept pay that glitters and shines.
Glitters and shines.
We don't care if were hire by a merchant or king.
As long they can pay for our daily fees.
Anyone can be treated like a king as long as they have a lot of gold stashed aside.
Were the ones you send when the going get rough.
We do are jobs with no question asked and keep our mouths shut.
While gladly die to get payed with what glitters and shines.
Glitters and Shines.
Why not join of band and travel the great big world.
You’ll get to see new places and get to mingle with the natives.
Why not add some spice to your life for the world is your play ground.
But you must be warned, you might lose some body parts along the way the longer you stay.
But if you make it out mostly intact, you get your life in luxury.
So let’s give a toast to what truly matters the most.
To everything that glitters and shines.
