YARBO'S GREATEST HITS
In case you haven't met him, Yarbo is the obese, obnoxious Half-Orc folksinger that frequents the Doom Lounge. Most of our characters have avoided him on more than one occasional. Despite being rude, gross, smelly, and probably scheming to steal your drink, Yarbo is oddly enough somewhat lovable -- if not exactly huggable.
If you like music, wait until Olo and Bolo take the stage for a little Folke Blues. Or even better, reserve a table close to stage when the beautiful Lia Mohr graces us with her velvet voice. But if you hear any of the following songs being sung, it's usually better just to pay Yarbo to shut up. All he wants is a free drink. Cheap grog or ale will do just fine.
This playlist has been compiled to serve as forewarning to new customers. Those faint of heart, or possessors of the slightest bit of culture or taste, are advised to steer clear of Yarbo's attempts at singing at all costs. Pregnant woman should consult a physician before listening. His most unforgettable (and not from lack of trying) tunes include:
'Larletta and Stinkeye'
"A true love story, typical in the Orc Quarter. Happened to a friend of mine, it did. You know the deal: boy meets girl, boy steals girl's valuables, girl beats up boy, boy and girl fall in love, girl dies from bathing, boy blackmail's dead girl's sister into letting him loaf around her house and eat her collard greens. It goes like this...Do you know Stinkeye? My good friend Stinkeye..."
(Editor's Note: For obvious reasons, we distracted our commentator with some Blue Toad Ale for the duration of this list)
'Ode to a Small Lump of Clay I found in My Armpit'
(With apologies and all due homage to Douglas Adams, may he rest in peace, preferably in a large bathtub of his choice!)
'She Tasted Like a Pint of Free Beer'
'The Time I Almost Bathed.'
'Lovers in a Dangerous Time (Without a Beer)'
'Ode to My Old Buddy Booger'
'You are My Booger'
'The Thing in Back of My Throat'
'Ode to Elves (You Stupid Bathers)'
'Why Zombies are Better than Ex-Wives'
'My Uncle Died from Bathing'
'The Song to End All Songs (I Pick On You)'
'The Ghost of Unwashed Underthings'
'Elves Taste Better With Whiskey'
'She's the One Eye, One I Love'
'Ode to You Drunk and Mildly Annoying Little Folke'
'Vampire Bards and the Dwarf Plat-Eyes that Stalk Them.'
