The 12 Days Of Christmas

You all know the song 'The 12 Days Of Christmas'. If you don't here it is:

'On the first day of Christmas my true love said to me, a partridge in a pear tree
On the second day of Christmas my true love said to me, two turtle doves and a partridge in a pear tree
On the third day of Christmas my true love said to me, three french hens, two turtle doves and a partidge in a pear tree
On the fourth day of Christmas my true love said to me, four calling birds, three french hens, two turtle doves and a partridge in a pear tree
On the fifth day of Christmas my true love said to me, five gold rings! Four calling birds, three french hens, two turtle doves, and a partridge in a pear tree
On the sixth day of Christmas my true love said to me, six geese-a-laying, five gold rings! Four calling birds, three french hens, two turtle doves, and a partridge in a pear tree
On the seventh day of Christmas my true love said to me, seven swans-a-swimming, six geese-a-laying, five gold rings! Four calling birds, three french hens, two turtle doves, and a partridge in a pear tree
On the eighth day of Christmas my true love said to me, eight maids-a-milking, seven swans-a-swimming, six geese-a-laying, five gold rings! Four calling birds, three french hens, two turtle doves, and a partridge in a pear tree
On the ninth day of Christmas my true love said to me, nine ladies dancing, eight maids-a-milking, seven swans-a-swimming, six geese-a-laying, five gold rings! Four calling birds, three french hens, two turtle doves, and a partridge in a pear tree
On the tenth day of Christmas my true love said to me, ten lords-a-leaping, nine ladies dancing, eight maids-a-milking, seven swans-a-swimming, six geese-a-laying, five gold rings! Four calling birds, three french hens, two turtle doves, and a partridge in a pear tree.
On the eleventh day of Christmas my true love said to me, eleven pipers piping, ten lords-a-leaping, nine ladies dancing, eight maids-a-milking, seven swans-a-swimming, six geese-a-laying, five gold rings! Four calling birds, three french hens, two turtle doves, and a partridge in a pear tree.
On the twelfth day of Christmas my true love said to me, twelve drummers drumming, eleven pipers piping, ten lords-a-leaping, nine ladies dancing, eight maids-a-milking, seven swans-a-swimming, six geese-a-laying, five gold rings! Four calling birds, three french hens, two turtle doves, and a partridge in a pear tree.'

Okay, what we are going to do is change that song into a metal version of it. I will start off with the first day of Christmas, then the next one does the second etc etc just remember: almost every addition after the number like 'ladies dancing' or 'calling birds' has four syllables. The only exception is 'five gold rings', which only has two. Lets make an epic version I can show to my metal mates.

I'll start it off:

On the first day of Christmas metalheads said to me, a guitar pick signed by Herman Li.

I don't really get it. Everything has 4 syllables except the first and the fifth?

so i will change it for now, but if you want it back then ok

The syllables are a bit much at two places but the idea is nice.

Yes I agree. Maybe when we say 'Four Dragonforce Albums' we can shorten that to 'Four DForce albums' perhaps?

That would make 4, 3, 2 and 1 fit alot better with the original song.
