This is a parody of an Irish folk song called The St. Patrick's Battalion, you can hear the original here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1JwjceS5HLg Before I say anything, all the credits for the lyrics go to my friend Luis who re-build them to add that poni-poni feeling we love so much. Oh! and also to mah deer friend ElJapones who draw that epic pic specially for the ocasion! I'll left their respective contacts below in the credits section. Now, I don't mean to mess with the politics behind the original song, in fact, I hate politics, so I really want you to take this as the simple thing it is: a parody. But although this was originally intented to be silly, I couldn't help to add some emotional thingies during the tune. My bad. Enjoy it! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LYRICS My name is Bill Riley I'll have your ear only a while I left my dear home on Earth It was poverty, pollution or exile And when I accomplished my travel It was my duty to go Enter the army and slog across the portal To join in the war against Equestria And it was there on the planes and hillsides That I saw the mistake I had made Part of an conquering army With the morals of a bayonet blade And in the midst of these poor, dying horses Screaming foals, the burning stentch of it all Myself and three hundred bravemen Decided to rise to the call From the Earth cities to Las Pegasus We witnessed friendship denied So we formed the Anon battalion And we fought on the Equestrian side We formed the Anon battalion And we fought on the Equestrian side We marched 'neath the green flag of Anon Emblazoned with "Friendship not war" Bright with the lyra and the hammer And "Libertad para Equina" Just eight years after Faust From a whole world away Those humans called us legion of weirds And they can think as they may But from the Earth cities to Las Pegasus We witnessed friendship denied So we formed the Anon battalion And we fought on the Equestrian side We formed the Anons battalion And we fought on the Equestrian side We fought them in Manehathan While their soldiers were slaughtering the foals In Maneterrey and Potro Gordo We fought on as Equestria's sons We were the red-headed fighters for freedom Amidst these colorful-skinned mares and colts Side by side we fought against greedy And I daresay we'd do it again From the Earth cities to Las Pegasus We witnessed friendship denied So we formed the Anon battalion And we fought on the Equestrian side We formed the Anon battalion And we fought on the Equestrian side We fought them in five major battles Appleloosa was the last Overwhelmed by the cannons from Europe We fell after each mortar blast Most of us died on that hillside In the service of the Equestrian seat So far from our doomed homeland We were heroes and victims of fate From our cities to Las Pegasus We witnessed friendship denied So we formed the Anon battalion And we fought on the Equestrian side From our cities to Las Pegasus We witnessed friendship denied So we formed the Anon battalion And we fought on the Equestrian side We formed the Anon battalion And we fought on the Equestrian side ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Anon Battalion (Parody of The St. Patrick's Battalion) Lyrics: Luis Martin Gutierrez Music: Me Art: ElJapones096 http://eljapones096.deviantart.com/ Wanna download?
