Don’t Rain On My Campaign (Don’t Rain on My Parade Parody for Critical Role)

Don’t tell me not to rage, just set your planner

Life’s liquor and Grog’s ale is looking tanner

Don’t bring around a cloud to rain on my campaign.

Don’t tell me not to fly, you know I’ve got to

If someone makes a kill, it’s me and not you

Sam Riegel’s not allowed to rain on my campaign.

I’ll put my hand out, I’ll roll the dice

And if I fade out, your turn to roll, sir

At least I didn’t fake it, Mercer, I’m not the Dungeon Master.

But when initiative is sheer complexion

Laura Bailey, as we know, is God’s perfection

Travis Willingham, the shiny apple of her eye.

I gotta fly once, I gotta try once

How do you want to do this, sir?

Love can’t be choosy, loose-y and goose-y

I gotta love my Pike, sir.

Get ready for me now ’cause I’m a Critter

I’ve simply got to fight, I’m not a quitter

Don’t bring around a cloud to rain on my campaign.

It’s Thursday night and we’ll play

Dungeons and Dragons all day

One roll for the whole shebang

One throw, those bells will go clang

Eye of the tiger and wham

One natural 20 and bam!

Hey there, Tal’Dorei (or any location, really)…here I am!

I’ll play my hand now, I’ll roll the dice

And if I fade out, your turn to roll, sir

At least I didn’t fake it, Mercer, the greatest Dungeon Master.

Get ready for me, love, ’cause I’m a Critter

I’ve simply got to fight, I’m not a quitter

Nobody, no, nobody is gonna rain on my…campaign!
