Balsa Club was founded in the late 70's by guitarist and lead singer Jack McKinnon and percussionist Harold Brohifney. The two musicians created a genere-bending sound that intranced millions around the globe. For over 25 years Jack and Harold rocked together, building a huge fan base (especially overseas in Europe, where they were played regularly by small local radio stations). The bands' dreams of ever releasing a full lenghth studio album were toppled when early in 2001 Jack met his fate. He was killed in a freak accident involving several utensils. With an accumulation of over 250 songs surmassed in Balsa Clubs' 25 years together, we honor Jack by releasing these recordings to the general public. One at a time.

VERSE 1

A man from the village told me a tale of destiny,
and the wraith of the beast.

That bastard came down and breathed his fire on the children,
and oh, how they burned.

My sword does 2D4+1 and his bite is 5D6,
I gotta battle the beast!

Dark and foreboading his shadow covers the land,
and he's coming for me.

CHORUS 1

He's got wings of the shadow
and claws like the night,
Oh, yeah.
I'm gonna fight the dragon.

I'm gonna rain arrows
of love upon your golden breast.
I'm gonna break your heart.

VERSE 2

As I approach his thunderous footfalls echoed in the valley,
the sound etched in my soul.

The behemouth rose and towered before me, I screamed!
This fear was for real.

But I remembered my place and knew in my heart this was fate,
I couldn't turn back now.

With the courage of a lion I drew my sword from it's sheath,
I'm gonna make you cry.

CHORUS 2

He's got wings of the shadow
and claws like the night,
Oh, yeah.
I'm gonna fight the dragon.

I'm gonna rain arrows
of love upon your golden breast.
I'm gonna break your heart.

VERSE 3

(crazy sounds)

CHORUS 3

He's got wings of the shadow
and claws like the night,
Oh, yeah.
I'm gonna fight the dragon.

I'm gonna rain arrows
of love upon your golden breast.
I'm gonna break your heart.

I used to fear the beast when I was less of a man,
but you gave me the power.

I'm gonna break your will and cut you down to size,
I've got love on my side.

VERSE 4

MAN-Looks like our time has come, Mr. Dragon-man.

DRAGON- You may think so, puny manling. But the last laugh shall be mine!

MAN- Not this time, foul beast. I have heard the cry of sufferage.

DRAGON- And the cries shall continue as long as I reign these lands!

MAN- Then you're gonna die, baby!

(sword slashing)

DRAGON- AAAAAHHHHHHGGGGG!!!
