Song of the Hertasi Water Killers Lyrics

We're just the little lizard-folk
Who cook and clean and sew
Who fetch the wood and water
So that you don't have to go
Who set the table, serve the meal
And slice the roast so nice
But never think that is all
That we slice

Never think a servant cannot
Stand up for their right
Never think that those who serve
Can't also stand and fight

We may lack strength to swing a sword
Or use a mace or bow
But we can use a knife
As well as anyone you know

We cannot fight on battlefields
With humans and their Spinks
But meet us in the water
And we'll see who sinks
Never think a servant cannot
Have his own free will
Never think that those who serve
Do not know how to kill

We serve our brother humans
We seek no wealth or fame
But our forebears ruled the world
Before the monkeys came
We strive to serve our humans,
Their comfort guarantee
But never that we are never
Fierce and free

Never think a servant cannot
Fight alongside you
Never think that those serve
Cannot be heroes, too

Never think a servant cannot
Stand up for their right
Never think that those who serve
Can't also stand and fight

Hisssssssssss!
