I am the very model of a shadowrunning samurai;
I've razorclaws and dermal plates and target-sensing cybereyes.
I know the gangs of Redmond and I ride a wizzer motorbike,
I'm very well acquainted with a fixer known as Magic Mike.

I may not hack the Matrix but I know just how to swing a blade,
In such a way to guarantee my target simply won't evade.
I understand unwritten rules of mercenary ettiquette... (ettiquette...)
Like splitting loot or stealing kills or how Yakuza settle bets!

I'm very good at cleaving skulls or stabbing things without a fuss,
or taking trophies from awakened critters animalculous...
In short you'll find no better suited member for your team than I,
For I'm the very model of a shadowrunning samurai!



I'll take the toughest missions, always eager to test out my skill,
No matter the opponent, I can register another kill.
I've made my reputation as a warrior decked out in chrome,
I've worked for folks named Johnson breaking in to the Tacoma Dome.

I'm stronger than a wendigo, with muscles cultured in a vat,
My lungs can filter toxins and I've not an ounce of body fat,
I'm swifter than a cheetah thanks to wired reflexology, (reflexology, hmm...)
I'll get your decker in and out of Renraku Arcology!

Then I can get the nuyen we were promised for the datasteal,
I'd celebrate but essence loss has left me unable to feel.
Don't bother even trying 'cause I'm never taken by surprise,
I am the very model of a shadowrunning samurai!



They never see me coming when I work to infiltrate a place,
I move so fraggin' swiftly that you'd swear I thought it was a race.
But if you see a cyber psycho coming at you like he's nuts,
You'll never even realize I've already sliced out your guts.

That's not to say that I don't have affinity for gunnery,
I've got a smartlink Ingram that I use for long-range funnery,
In short it doesn't matter if I'm using swords or pistolry (pistolry... aha!)
You'll say my quarry never even stood a chance in history!

So take me on your run because I'm plucky and adventury,
More talented than anyone you'll hope to meet this century,
If anyone says different then they're tellin' you a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ lie,
'Cause I'm the very model of a shadowrunning samurai!
