| To be sung to the tune
of "The Streets of Laredo".
As I explored at the rim of galaxy,
As I explored at the far rim one day,
I spied a young Shadow in a well armed spacecraft,
in a well shielded spacecraft just as dark as the space.
"I see by your vessel that you are Minbari,"
These words he did hiss as I boldly flew by.
"You are a proud warrior, but I will soon show you,
That this is the day and the place you will die."
"If you care for a battle you're welcome, young Shadow.
I've never declined from a challenge before.
Be prepared to die slowly, to suffer and struggle
For this is what I have for Shadows in store."
He waved his tentacles, he hissed battle verses,
He shot beams of laser so eas'ly to avoid.
I turned round my spacecraft and started to fire
And within a minute his ship was destroyed.
Just in his space suite he appeared to be tiny.
He whimpered and asked for mercy and prayed.
I did as I promised and tortured him truly
Before I did kill him at the end of the day.
Get six husky Vorlons to carry his coffin.
Get six pretty Narn girls to sing him a song.
Write with gold letters all over his tombstone:
"He was just a young Shadow who challenged the wrong."
