Minion Mantra
If I'm in for a penny, I'm in for a pound,
But you won't find a better Overlord around.

Some tyrants like to nickel and dime,
Some even contribute to the level of crime.

He gathers together Minions so loyal,
We're more than happy to burn the midnight oil.

We frolic and play the ASR way,
Though not ever to say love, honor and obey.

Minions subert more to the cause,
Though not ever waiting for rounds of applause.

Anything for the Overlord we do,
All without the threat to beat black and blue.

You may think that you're safe from this stuff,
But like a bad penny we always turn up.

Working always toward the first Minion Decree,
It doesn't even take a rocket science degree.

Over us, your words hold no sway,
Know that from him, we'll never stray.

One last though and I'll bid you adieu,
Always, I say, may the Waltz be with you!
