She so dam Cheery!
Lyrics
(Verse 1)
Down in the dark where the gold-lust grows,
In a heavy iron apron and steel-toed shoes,
Cheery sat working with the bellows and the lead,
But a different kind of fire was brewing in her head.
The Alchemists' Guild had a very strict rule:
"Keep your head down, don't be a fool."
But she mixed a little reagent, gave the beaker a spoof—
And Cheery Littlebottom went right through the roof!
(Chorus)
Oh, she’s so damn Cheery, with her boots polished bright,
Bringing the dwarfs right into the light!
From the mines of Uberwald to the Ankh-Morpork mud,
She’s got a badge on her chest and a fire in her blood!
No more hiding in the shadows, no more playing the part,
She’s a watchwoman now, with a giant-sized heart!
(Verse 2)
Commander Vimes looked up and he said, "What’s this?"
A dwarf with a skirt and an alchemist's kiss?
She joined up with Carrot, with Angua and Detritus,
Solving the crimes that were trying to divide us.
With a copper badge gleaming and an eye for the clues,
She was checking out the footprints and the drops on the shoes.
From the gonne in the night to the clacks in the sky,
When the Watch needs a chemist, she’s the one to apply!
(Chorus)
Oh, she’s so damn Cheery, with her boots polished bright,
Bringing the dwarfs right into the light!
From the mines of Uberwald to the Ankh-Morpork mud,
She’s got a badge on her chest and a fire in her blood!
No more hiding in the shadows, no more playing the part,
She’s a watchwoman now, with a giant-sized heart!
(Bridge)
They said, "All dwarfs have beards, all dwarfs are the same,
Don't go changing the rules of the cavernous game!"
But she put on some lipstick, she put on some heels,
And she showed the whole world how a lady dwarf feels!
She said, "It's a metaphor!" with a spark in her eye,
"Why should a girl have to live a total lie?"
Now the low-kings are listening, the traditions are shaken,
The heels are strapped on and the streets are being taken!
(Guitar Solo / Mandolin Frenzy)
(Verse 3)
Through the war with the deep-downers, holding her ground,
The bravest damn forensics expert ever was found.
"Good grief," she would mutter when the bodies piled high,
But she’d look through her glass and she’d never say die.
From a bread-throwing riot to a vampire truce,
You can’t keep this dwarf from breaking right loose!
(Chorus)
Oh, she’s so damn Cheery, with her boots polished bright,
Bringing the dwarfs right into the light!
From the mines of Uberwald to the Ankh-Morpork mud,
She’s got a badge on her chest and a fire in her blood!
No more hiding in the shadows, no more playing the part,
She’s a watchwoman now, with a giant-sized heart!
(Outro)
Yeah, she went through the roof!
(Through the roof!)
Now she’s living the truth!
(Living the truth!)
With her heels clicking loud on the cobblestone floor,
Cheery Littlebottom’s gonna kick down the door!
So damn Cheery!
Yeah!
