With the body of a reptile and a head of a serpent
This will always leave people emergent
This dragon is just a heap of monstrosity
It is filled with tonnes of ferocity.

It’s renowned for its vicious killing and hatred
Licking its lips with blood as if they've just been painted
Like all dragons it loves its gold
And its greed and hunger for it must remain uncontrolled.

Its sinister plans are what make it malevolent
Its plans to become good are totally irrelevant
Yet most of its stories remain untold
However its plans for evil have already been told.
