Topsiders falling down, falling down, falling down. Topsiders falling down, Silco our fair leader Build them down with chem and lime, chem and lime, chem and lime. Build them down with chem and lime. A nation of Zaunites! The lanes are our home. Our home, our home. The lanes are our home. We will defend them. -ABG Cosinejoe
Once there was a great big man Who thought he was so mighty Tried to make a great big war But then he got so flighty Oh ooh oh oh Friendliness will always be The way to live our life Peaceful friends, we all will be If we try to be nice Oh ooh oh oh -old Ionian folk song, transcribed by Itch
Nobody likes me, everybody hates me, I think I’ll just play aggro Big fat open attacks Four to face? Drop the ax Chipping down your health to zero! Hit you with the Legion Rearguard, don’t even try Go Hard Chipping down your health to zero! Oh you’ve got a mystic shot? My Fervor was part of the plot Chipping down your health to zero! Play the Zap draw a spell, mana from attune as well Get 1 more from Gangplank! Nobody will ever know -- just how angry you will grow While I drop you all these ranks! Nobody likes me everybody hates me I think I’ll just play aggro Big fat open attacks Four to face? Drop the ax Chipping down your health to zero! -Penguin
If you go round to Ziel's place, avoid the man with the smiling face! One cask, two cask, kick it with your shoe! Three cask, four cask, roll it out the door! Five cask, six cask, always take the risk! Seven cask, eight cask, keep the lid on straight! Nine cask, ten cask, Zaun will rise again! -regular bird
Keep yer wits about ye! We're sailin' dang'rous waters! Steel yer hearts! The dark sea Is filled with things that swaller Ship and crew alike! Down beneath the surface, A lithe and twistin' devil, Long o'tooth and monstrous, Is plottin' somethin' evil. Ready up yer pikes! Strain yer ears to listen— The creakin' timbers' mournin' Fillin' hearts with frisson— And now, without forewarnin', Look! It looms, and strikes! -Alkaloid
One, two, three and four The river king is at your door Five, six, seven, eight Don't make deals or you'll be ate -Restless
Save, save, save your Zed Deny burn, save the Queen. Attack with Young Witch and with Poppy - Opponent will concede. -bA1ance
(To the tune of "You are my sunshine")
You are my sun disc, my only sun disc,
you make me happy, when lands are dry.
You'll never know dear, how much I love you
please don't take, my sun disc away.
So long ago dear, at the ascension
Xerath betrayed his dearest friend.
Since then Shurima, crumbled to shambles
but will arise, arise once again.
You are my sun disc, my only sun disc,
you make me happy, when lands are dry.
you'll never know dear, how much I love you
please don't take, my sun disc away.

He doesn’t blink, he doesn’t feel He doesn’t laugh or cry All he does from dusk till dawn Is make civilians die. He doesn’t mourn, he doesn’t rush He doesn’t use one eye And when you see the flowers bloom It’s time to say goodbye. He doesn’t show, he doesn’t run He doesn’t live or die But when the shot pierces your heart he plays a lullaby. -Conansson
One-drop, One-drop, One-drop, Three Fiddle-dee-dum and fiddle-tee-hee. One-drop, One-Drop, One-drop, Burn! Top deck Decimate at the start of me turn! -wick
Down below Underneath Skitter, patter Pointy teeth Down below Dig and eat Creatures' bones And children's meat Down below Down Below Queenly sleep From long ago Down below Yes I know Earthly queen I wanna go Down below Her eyes glow A kiss, a hug A Jackal show -Mimir, the Felony Fellow

In the woods, a lamp is lit (That is not a scarecrow) By a man with crooked feet (That is not a scarecrow) Pointy fingers, shiny gaze (That is not a scarecrow) Leaning in over your face (That is not a scarecrow) Fiddlesticks, he knows you're here (That is not a scarecrow) Something told 'em what you fear (That is not a scarecrow) Don't you try to run away (That is not a scarecrow) He will find you anyway (That is not a scarecrow) That is not a scarecrow. -Rocksaint
Wind wind That comes in blue wings wind wind Drop a little breeze Breeze breeze For our lungs, fresh air Breeze breeze Free us from The gray and caustic gas Air air That comes and goes Swinging from pole to pole Hug me tight goddess Until the tiredness is gone -Hazy

JINX IS SO COOL! YEAH!! NICE!!! Jinx is not my first love. Instead she was my last. Never saw another X-ample quite as fast. I brought her to Ionia. She beat Lulu and Zed So insanely quickly Others shake their heads. Cast her in Bilgewater, Oblit'ted Plank and Naut. Only wished that battles Last longer against bots. Yonder in Piltover, Ezreal got slammed. Also stupid Viktor Had Jinx mess up his plans. Now, the biggest bragging I do will come to pass: Complete annihilation— Every run was triple S! -Alkaloid
