The Ballad of Doji Yuri

By: Judd M. Goswick

(to the tune of  “Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm” by the Crash Test Dummies)

 

Once there was this kid whose

Dad was a poet and his mamma was a badass

And when he reached manhood

His hair was dyed from black into bright white

He never quite explained it – it’s always been the Crane Way…

 

<Chorus> 

Doji Yuri….Doji Yuri…

Doji Yuri….Doji Yuri…

 

Once he hit gempukku, he went to Kakita to study iaijutsu

And when he finally finished, he was called the “Perfect Killer”

And with that kind of nickname, you’d better be a badass!

 

<Chorus>

 

But both Crane and Crab Clan forced him to become a “wave man”

 

And then he found new purpose – to become the Daimyo of the mighty, ancient Dragon

And then they came to love him and he helped to kill Fu Leng.

Then everybody loved him – except for the Shosuro…

 

<Chorus to End>
