Nipwilliger Troll, what you gonna do?

Nipwilliger Troll
How'd you get that weird name?
And your delusional sense of mission?
And your wholly irrational concept of a game?

I was graced with it by the Spastacualqa
When they cleansed my brain
In their cleansing light
By their cleansing rain

Nipwilliger Troll
What you gonna do?
How you gonna get money?
How you gonna get food?

Procure shelter
and worldly resources
What you ever
gonna do?

Spastacualqa
En Rentinqulum
provides me
with everything I need

All I do is think of things
And they are revealed
To me via the conduit
of your greed

your species' greed
your hunger
your need
on these things I feed

Nipwilliger Troll
You're a homeless begger
Or a captain of industry
Or a frat guy at a kegger

Or a fisherman at sea
Or a convict in a cage
Or a good man locked in sin
Or a conductor on a stage

Shifting shape
like blood
blooming in water
blue and cool

or blood blooming
on the pavement
from your spittle
lip and drool

Nipwilliger Troll
What you gonna do?
How you gonna get money?
How you gonna get food?

I am graced by the Spastacualqa
When they cleanse my nightly brain
In their cleansing nightsome light
By their cleansing nightsome rain
