[Chorus: Boxty & Knight of Endale]
Money maybe be a terrible master
But an excellent servant
If it's for the right price
Then I'm willing to do what you want
Sure, loyalty comes with time
But here's a piece of advice
If there's a better offer
Then you take the better price
[Verse 1: Boxty]
I am a mercenary
And I'm loyal to those who pay me
Some may say I'm a yes-man
I don't care that it's part of a bigger plan
I was always loyal to him
The chances of betrayal were slim
But the kid had the better offer
So I was slightly deterred
It was more than I had ever been given
He really needed me, but not as a friend
The other one was slowly going insane
So I won't play his little game
When the final say had come
The kid looked like he was done for
But I betrayed my first loyalty
Because he should have payed me more
[Pre-Chorus: Boxty]
And as they all say
And as they all say
[Chorus: Boxty]
Money maybe be a terrible master
But an excellent servant
If it's for the right price
Then I'm willing to do what you want
Sure, loyalty comes with time
But here's a piece of advice
If there's a better offer
Then you take the better price
[Verse 2: Knight of Endale]
I was always a mercenary
But desperate times call for desperate means
So I let the crimson cult hire me
But then I gave up my loyalty
Nothing is ever written in stone
It's funny 'cause they should have known
That I was a traitor in the gambler's game
I'm gonna bring back my own name
I took that side 'cause he paid me more
Even if it meant we go to war
How could I have ever said no
When he threatened to burn my UFO?
But it didn't take long for my patience to break
Betting on a book, I played high stakes
But it turns out it was all in vain
'Cause I lost more than I'd ever gained
[Pre-Chorus: Knight of Endale]
And as they all say
And as they all say
[Chorus: Knight of Endale]
Money maybe be a terrible master
But an excellent servant
If it's for the right price
Then I'm willing to do what you want
Sure, loyalty comes with time
But here's a piece of advice
If there's a better offer
Then you take the better price
[Bridge: Boxty & Knight of Endale]
I got the gold but I just lost my best friend
I don't know if I should have sided with that child
Even though I got the gold, it was far from the end
'Cause some wrongs can't be reconciled
[Pre-Chorus: Boxty, Knight of Endale, Both]
And as they all say
And as they all say
And as we all say
And as we all say
[Outro: Boxty & Knight of Endale]
Money maybe be a terrible master
But an excellent servant
But even if you get paid
It might not leave you content
Sure, loyalty comes with time
But here's a piece of advice
It might not be worth
To take the better price
Money maybe be a terrible master
But an excellent servant
If it's for the right price
Then I'm willing to do what you want
Sure, loyalty comes with time
But here's a piece of advice
If there's a better offer
Then you take the better price
[Verse 1: Boxty]
