(TM):
Once upon a time
There was a White Knight
Armed with a blade and shield
Equipped for the fight
This knight lived long ago
In the magical kingdom of Xolus
Slaying dragons, rebels
And saving maidens
That was his modus
Employed by the king
Who was a ruthless tyrant
The White Knight was tired of war
And close to retirement
Just when the king thought
He was unrivaled in might
Another sought to overthrow him
Enter the Black Knight
(JG):
The White Knight, the White Knight
Armed with sword and shield
Prepared for a fight
The White Knight, the White Knight
Enemies of the king
Beware his sight
The White Knight, the White Knight
Thoroughly convinced
That might makes right
The White Knight, the White Knight
Believes he's a warrior of light
(TM):
The King took this as a threat
And sent the White Knight
And his warriors
To take out the Black Knight
And kill the bastard for glory
The king said; "string him up, flay him
And the like, chop off his fucking head
Then stick that shit on a pike!"
They battled the Black Knight
But fell to his sword
Except the White Knight
Who swore he'd kill him for his lord
The duel was intense
But they were equal fighters
Both wounded, barely breathing
And extremely tired
The two retreated to their lairs
The White Knight was baffled
He told the king
"No man has ever been my equal in a battle"
(Chorus)

The Black Knight

(TM):
This is the origin story
Of the Black Knight
A tale of love, deception
Mystery, betrayal, hope and fright
The White Knight saved a sorceress
Called the White Witch
Took her back to the Kingdom of Xolus
Where they lived in bliss
The White Witch only knew
A couple of spells
Mostly healing magicks for everyone
Telekinesis for herself
The White Knight brought her
To a wizard's estate
Where she could train in mystic arts
And serve the realm for kingdom's sake
But the king had grown
Suspicious of her powers
Now she could create fire
Speak to the dead
Control nature and flowers
Within hours of her graduation
The king made a decree
To have the land of the couple scoured
He accused the White Witch
Of being a source of evil
She was now stronger
Than the alchemist
That was once her teacher
(JG):
Who's never been beaten in a fight?
It's the Black Knight
His strength and skills
Are beyond compare
If health was money
He'd be a millionaire
He's the Black Knight (x3)
Woo!
He's the Black Knight
(TM):
The king called for her execution
And his wrath was rife
But the White Knight pleaded
That the king spare
The life of his wife
Due to his service
The king gave mercy and obliged
Afterwards, sending the White Witch away
To be exiled
Once in a new country
She experienced illness
Not only from pregnancy
But plague from a killer virus
She died in childbirth
And the boy was adopted
Years later finding out
Who was his biological father
He'd return to the kingdom
So he could set things right
Thus, is the origin story
Of the mysterious Black Knight
(Chorus)

The Kingdom of Xolus

(TM):
It's the day of the eclipse
A day of reckoning
The king orders pawns to their sector
Like it's checkmate
The Black Knight is on the warpath
There's gonna be a bloodbath
Can the king's soldier take him down?
Nah, fuck that
Motherfucker's enchanted
They tried to take him for granted
That BK's the baddest motherfucker
That's on the planet
He's 'bout to give the king
And his knaves a hassle
So Black Knight, have fun
Stormin' the fucking castle
(JG):
The Kingdom of Xolus (x7)
Our boy BK in that fortress, clearing rooms
Sending the king's assholes
Straight to their doom
He finally got to the throne room
Guess who's there waiting?
The White Knight ready to fight
There's no debating
But then the old mage
Steps out from the shadows
And tells our heroes the truth
Before they kill themselves in battle
He tells the White Knight
The Black Knight is his child
Conjures up the spirit of the White Witch
Then dies with a smile
She says his words are true
And that she loves them very much
Now the White Knight turns to the king
He's pissed as fuck
"You wanted me to kill my own son?!"
He screams in rage
"I should have killed you wife too
When she got stronger than that mage!"
The king shouted
Sending his head guards into the court
The White Knight and Black Knight
Running through them for sport
They turn to the king
Who's now begging like a pussy
The White Knight told him;
"My Lord, you should have never pushed me!"
The duo shoved him out the window
King lands on a wooden spike
Suffers 'til his last breath
The victory's in their sight
The White Knight is now the king
Black Knight is the prince
And the Kingdom of Xolus
Has been flourishing ever since
The battle was won
Alas, this is the final chapter
The White Knight and the Black Knight ruled
Happily ever after
(Chorus)
