The Ballad of the Hopengartner Brothers
11/1/2025Aria v1
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Oh gather âround, ye lords and knaves,
To hear the tale of three bold braves:
Young Cody struts in plate and steel,
With pistols, poleaxe, blades to healâ
But once his shot went *wildly* south,
And left poor Fenrir sans his mouth⊠(but not his mouth!)
Then Fenrir, mute, with waxen scrawl,
A revolver king, yet prone to fallâ
His codpiece cursed, his luck amiss,
He pissed on mail and sealed it with a kiss.
To golden shrines heâd oft retreat,
To mend what Codyâd maimed⊠discreet.
And Varg, the eldest, mage of pride,
Summoned a stoneâdominoes! They cried.
He crushed his foes, then mocked the smith,
âYour craftsmanship is *literal* myth!â
Yet when poor Fen lost *manly pride*,
âTwas Varg who found a replacement⊠side.
[Chorus]
Oh Hopengartners, chaos-born,
From blunders dire, their legendâs swornâ
They stumbled into hellâs foul scheme,
Then crushed the fascist demon dream!
[Verse 2]
They tracked a cult through moonlit bogs,
Cody shot onceâtwo heads, two logs!
But healing spells went *devil-ward*,
Asmodeus roared, âThis world is scarred!â
With hellish legions, fascist creed,
The brothers fled, their halls decreedâŠ
[Chorus]
Oh Hopengartners, chaos-born,
From blunders dire, their legendâs swornâ
They stumbled into hellâs foul scheme,
Then crushed the fascist demon dream!
[Bridge]
Exiled, ragged, but still they schemed,
Joined rebels where the torches gleamed.
Codyâs pistols sang their tune,
Fenâs wax wrote âK**k their scaly moon!â
And Varg, with dominoes stacked high,
Sent demons back to scream the sky!
[Verse 3]
They stormed the keep where Asmodeus trilled,
Codyâs shotâhis aim fulfilled!
Fen flipped his board: âLetâs end this farce!â
Vargâs stone crushed Hellâs last pass.
Their mansion reclaimed, though slightly singed,
The brothers laughed⊠and Fenrer *hinged*.
