I'm Still In Love With Horus, Baby

I've been enjoying Lady Gaga's new song Judas and, at the same time, rereading the first few books in the Horus Heresy. This has caused, shall we say, odd thoughts.

I can't sing worth a damn (my only "D" in middle school was in Chorus), so if any musically-inclined fans of Warhammer 40,000 want to do something with this, I'd love to hear about it. Keep in mind that the original song lyrics are not mine, none of the characters are mine, and any attempt to profit off this will make powerful people very angry at you.



Oh-oh-oh-ohoo
I'm in love with Hor-us, Hor-us

Oh-oh-oh-ohoo
I'm in love with Hor-us, Hor-us

Horus Hor-a-a, Horus Hor-a-a, Horus Hor-a-a, Horus Chaos
Horus Hor-a-a, Horus Hor-a-a, Horus Hor-a-a, Horus Chaos

[Verse 1]
When he comes to me, I am ready
I'll burn the galaxy if he needs
Stand with him when his Legions march to slay
The Master of Mankind that he betrays

I'll burn it down, burn it down, down
Imperium with no crown, with no crown

[Chorus]
I'm just a loyal fool, oh baby he's so cruel
But I'm still in love with Horus, baby

I'm just a loyal fool, oh baby he's so cruel
But I'm still in love with Horus, baby

Oh-oh-oh-ohoo
I'm in love with Hor-us, Hor-us

Oh-oh-oh-ohoo
I'm in love with Hor-us, Hor-us

Horus Hor-a-a, Horus Hor-a-a, Horus Hor-a-a, Horus Chaos

[Verse 2]
I couldn't serve a man so purely
His soldiers all embraced his prideful way
The Emperor abandoned us to die,
Chaos has given us a new way

I'll burn it down, burn it down, down
Imperium with no crown, with no crown

[Chorus]
I'm just a loyal fool, oh baby he's so cruel
But I'm still in love with Horus, baby

I'm just a loyal fool, oh baby he's so cruel
But I'm still in love with Horus, baby

Oh-oh-oh-ohoo
I'm in love with Hor-us, Hor-us

Oh-oh-oh-ohoo
I'm in love with Hor-us, Hor-us

EW

[Bridge]
In the Imperial sense,
I am beyond repentance
Sworn traitor, heretic wretch, corrupted mind
But to the warp-sighted sense
I just speak in future tense
Horus kill me if offensed,
Or close your mind next time

I wanna serve you,
But something's pulling me away from you
The Emperor is my virtue,
And Chaos is the daemon I cling to
I cling to

[Chorus]
I'm just a loyal fool, oh baby he's so cruel
But I'm still in love with Horus, baby

I'm just a loyal fool, oh baby he's so cruel
But I'm still in love with Horus, baby

Oh-oh-oh-ohoo
I'm in love with Hor-us, Hor-us

Oh-oh-oh-ohoo
I'm in love with Hor-us, Hor-us

Horus Hor-a-a, Horus Hor-a-a, Horus Hor-a-a, Horus Chaos
Horus Hor-a-a, Horus Hor-a-a, Horus Hor-a-a, Horus Chaos
