the better price - boxty lyrics
[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
