When he's not venturing into the Hells, or helping out on Dusty runs, ShortSpike likes to compose ballads so that later generations may still revel in the glory of Higher Ground. Here are a few of his favourites: (With apologies to the original authors!)
Ectoplasmic Weave
Oh Lord, won’t you buy me Ectoplasmic Weave? My friends all have Hawklights, they say its a breeze. Levelled hard all my lifetime, I'm down on my knees, So Lord, won’t you buy me Ectoplasmic weave ?
Oh Lord, won’t you buy me a Kukri (DB)? Deverils in the Desert are trying to kill me. I'll wait at The Crossroads each day until three, So oh Lord, won’t you buy me a kukri (DB) ?
Oh Lord, won’t you take me on an Illithid run? I’m counting on you, Lord, don't tell me its been done. Prove that you love me and let me join the fun, Oh Lord, won’t you take me on an Illithid run?
Everybody! Oh Lord, won’t you buy me Ectoplasmic Weave? My friends all have Hawklights, they say its a breeze. Levelled hard all my lifetime, I'm down on my knees, So Lord, won’t you buy me Ectoplasmic weave ?

The Wizard
On a warm summers evening on a run bound for nowhere, I met up with a Wizard; we were both in need of sleep. So we took turns at resting, and buffing up each other ’til boredom overtook us, and he began to speak.
He said, son, I’ve made a life out of casting all my emp. FoDs, And knowing what their spells were by the way they wave their hands. So if you don’t mind my saying, I can see you’re out of spell-slots. For a taste of your Absinth, I’ll give you some advice.
So I handed him my bottle and he drank down my last swallow. Then he bummed a Ring of Cold and we searched for a fight. And the night got deathly quiet, and his face lost all expression. Said, if you’re gonna play the game, boy, ya gotta learn to play it right.
You got to know when to Hold em, know when to Cold em, Know when to port away and know when to run. You never split your l00ts when you’re still out on in the desert. There’ll be time enough for splitting when the fighting’s done.
Now every Wizard knows that the secret to surviving Is knowing what spells to throw, knowing what to keep. cause every spell’s a winner and every spell’s a loser, And the best that you can hope for is to reach 60 in your sleep.
So when he’d finished speaking, he turned back towards his spellbook, passed me back my Cold Ring and faded off to sleep. And somewhere in the darkness the Wizard, he made 60. But in his final words I found some magic I could keep.
You got to know when to Hold em, know when to Cold em, Know when to port away and know when to run. You never split your l00ts when you’re still out on in the desert. There’ll be time enough for splitting when the fighting’s done.
You got to know when to Hold em, know when to Cold em, Know when to port away and know when to run. You never split your l00tz when you’re still out on in the desert. There’ll be time enough for splitting when the fighting’s done.

Sharp Dressed Toon
Hawk Robes, Bastion boots And I don't know where I am going to. Dusty blade, Orudins Eye I don't need a reason why. They come running just as fast as they can Coz every girl crazy 'bout a sharp dressed man.
Neg Potions, Cold Ring, I ain't missing a single thing. Unknown Miscellaneous Thin When I step out I'm gonna do you in. They come running just as fast as they can Coz every girl crazy 'bout a sharp dressed man.
Titans Top for a hat, I don't worry coz my bank vault's fat. Ecto weave, Brazen gloves, Looking' sharp and looking for love. They come running just as fast as they can Coz every girl crazy 'bout a sharp dressed man.

Veterans High
There goes the shout-out that warns of the Hell Run Then comes the sound of the Vets shouting back Off to the item-shop we've got to get potions Got to get heals for the coming attack.
Jump to the Workshop and buff-up the tanks Perm all the enchantments theres no time to waste Gathering speed as we head through the portal Gotta get walled-in before it's too late.
Running, casting, healing Singing, cursing, healing, going in again Run, live to l00t, l00t to live, do or die Run, live to l00t, l00t to live, Veterans High.
Move in to blast at the mainstream of Demons Let of a meteor and then run away heal up and buff up and come in behind them Move to their blindside and cast it again.
Big mobs of Demons spawn up behind us Ten Red Abishai come out of the blue Buffing and sending our STR-tanks to face them ... Heading straight for me… I can take out a few ….
Running, casting, healing Singing, cursing, healing, resurrecting again Run, live to l00t, l00t to live, do or die Run, live to l00t, l00t to live, Veterans High.

Enrith
Enrith, Enrith, Enrith, Enrith, I'm begging of you please don't take my Hawks. Enrith, Enrith, Enrith, Enrith, Please don't take them just because you can.
Your bank vaults are beyond compare, With mule-toons full of Ultra-Rares With Tiamat drops and l00tz I’ve never seen Your Bard has become Demi-God Your Shifter is not far behind And I cannot compete with you, Enrith.
I think about them in my sleep, An' there's nothing I can do to keep, From crying when you take my Hawks, Enrith. And I can easily understand, How you could easily take my robes, But you don't know what they mean to me, Enrith.
Enrith, Enrith, Enrith, Enrith, I'm begging of you please don't take my Hawks. Enrith, Enrith, Enrith, Enrith, Please don't take them just because you can.
You could have your pick of l00tz, But I can rarely win the rolls They’re the only one for me, Enrith. I had to have this talk with you: My happiness depends on you, And whatever you decide to do, Enrith.
Enrith, Enrith, Enrith, Enrith, I'm begging of you please don't take my Hawks. Enrith, Enrith, Enrith, Enrith, Please don't take them just because you can.
Enrith. ( Enrith.)

The Hell's Crew
Another Run, another place, Another toon, another face, Another loot, another race, I'm looting junk, feeling bad, Another night, I'm going mad, My woman's leaving, I feel sad, But I just love the life I lead, Another run is what I need, Another foe, my wounds bleed, We Are The Hell's Crew
Loads of junk I've left behind, Another spell that makes me blind, Another secret I can't find, Another magic blade for you, Another mob, Abashi (blue) Another portal to get through, I'm buffing like a maniac, Port my way to hell and back, Another day of slash'n'hack, We Are The Hell's Crew
Another Layer, we can burn, Another twist, another turn, Another goddam map to learn, Another rest-stop on the way, Another way I learn to play, Another word I learn to say, Another bloody forum post, Another set of l00tz to boast, This is the run I love the most! We Are The Hell's Crew
