From branch to branch, from top to root

This little creature makes a loop

Now he's here, watch him there

This tiny drill-tooth is everywhere

Wrapping the story around his tail

Twisting the truth, hiding his secrets behind a veil of innocence

How can you tell foe from friend?

What is in your murky mind? Ratatosk!

Under the dark, hidden dust, and over the misty tops

He's searching high and low for secrets untold

Messenger or puppeteer?

All the whispers in his ear

Bending the truth in a forest of lies

Deceiver in disguise

The dragon lingers in the deep

Biting the roots of Yggdrasil

Have you heard the news today?

Odin's beard is turning grey

The eagle above is soaring free

From his wings – the air we breathe

Between the two the anger grew

But what is the harm in a lie or two?

What is in your murky mind?

Under the dark, hidden dust, and over the misty tops

He's searching high and low for secrets untold

Messenger or puppeteer?

All the whispers in his ear

Bending the truth in a forest of lies

Deceiver in disguise

Up and down the tree our little champion travels

Speaking dragon and eagle, dark words to unravel

With simple taunts as his only passenger

He's the world's fastest messenger

Under the dark, hidden dust

Under the dark, hidden dust, and over the misty tops

He's searching high and low for secrets untold

Messenger or puppeteer?

All the whispers in his ear

Bending the truth in a forest of lies

Deceiver in disguise
