'Shovel Knight with Lyrics'

Shovel Knight
Goes into fights
Thinking that his shovel is a knife
He is quite confused
But we still
Admire his skills
Watch as he pretends he’s making kills
Just let him do
He attacks
Robotics rats
When he sees things, he overreacts
And thinks their threats
Not the best

Person you should call
To go rescue all
But we don’t hate him at all

We sent him on a special quest
Because we should
Make him feel good
All of the things he thinks that he is doing
Until the end
Is just pretend
All in is head

Most heroes
Everyone knows
But Shovel Knight isn’t one of those
He is just a kid

Plays and fights
All day and night
Along with his playdate, the Shield Knight
They fight with sticks

He has fun
And goes and runs
On quests in his imagination
But don’t worry
He carries

A shovel that is
Made out of plastic
So it won’t hurt when you’re hit

He waves plastic wands and thinks they’re
Blasting magic
Doing some tricks
He sees animals and pretends their monsters
Like a dragon
And a griffin
And a blob thing

If at Arthur’s
Round Table
Shovel would be the most senile
But he is fine
He loves all
Things medieval
And pretends everything is evil
That is some mind
Shovel Knight,
Time for night-night
Sleep tight and don’t let the bedbugs bite
So much, you have played
Through the day

So it’s time to sleep
And fight in your dreams
Did I mention he’s 30?
