Rat King Legends

Lyrics

[Intro] Rat King Legends, gather up! One more minute—someone’s gotta plug in! [Verse 1] We built a little family out of loot and bad advice, Made a banner, made a promise, said, “Tonight we’re doing nice.” Six brave heroes in the fireteam, everybody dressed to slay— Then the game says “Launch,” and one guy’s wandered clean away. [Pre-Chorus] “Are we ready?” “Yeah!” “I’m ready!” “Wait, my screen is black!” Somebody’s controller’s blinking like it’s planning to defect. [Chorus] Rat King Legends, climbing up to fame, We’re screaming at the boss and forgetting its name! We group up, gear up, then somebody goes AFK— The raid starts, the batteries die, and we still yell, “Okay!” Rat King Legends, glorious and unwell, We charge into the fight, then launch ourselves to hell! [Verse 2] “Hold on, I’m just changing shaders”—now the rally flag is gone, One is shouting callouts backwards, one’s been dead since we spawned. I jumped off the ledge to dodge a shot; the floor said, “Nice try, friend.” We’re killing every enemy except the one we need to end. [Pre-Chorus] “Who’s got the relic?” “Not me!” “I thought you had it, man!” A headset crackles, someone’s yelling, “I can’t feel my hands!” [Chorus] Rat King Legends, climbing up to fame, We’re screaming at the boss and forgetting its name! We group up, gear up, then somebody goes AFK— The raid starts, the batteries die, and we still yell, “Okay!” Rat King Legends, glorious and unwell, We charge into the fight, then launch ourselves to hell! [Bridge] Stay together! (Where’d you go?) We’re all here! (One’s moving slow.) One last try! (My controller’s dead!) We’ll make the legends—after snacks and bed! [Final Chorus] Rat King Legends, climbing up to fame, We’re screaming at the boss and forgetting its name! We group up, gear up, then somebody goes AFK— The game starts, the batteries die—“We’re ready!” “Not today!” Rat King Legends, family by the end, We wiped again together, and we’ll queue up again! [Outro] “Everybody ready?” … “Who’s still in orbit?”
