The Dragons

The Dragons have got email now
They all ‘facebook’ each other.
They have their talons sharpened just for texting one another.
The dragons can’t be bothered eating people, burning crops.
They do it all on ‘Farmville’ coz it leaves more time to shop.

They’ve put their hoards on Ebay now
They’re rated as ‘Top Sellers’.
Their caves have been sold off and redeveloped as call centres.
The Dragons don’t get out much now
They bought Xbox 360’s
Their junk food is all brought to them by ‘subcontracted’ pixies.

The Dragons have got desk jobs now
They’re pale and out of shape.
Brave knights who come to call
just shake their heads and turn away.
But the Dragons have decided that they must move with the times,
As Smaug’s top rated blog declares:
“Most virgins are ‘on line’”
