discuss above, lets think of a way to take the lore of dwarf fortress and put it to this song, it would create an epic story for us and the game

well in the verse "the thief came out in my London town" could fit well with a goblin thief getting shot by arrows in an above ground fortress
the part where he is singing, "i imagine all the brutal services" we could have a dwarven child surrounded by wooden spikes
" of all the wounded and crying witches" we could have a necromancer getting her arm chopped off
"goodbye my friends" simply a loyalty cascade would fit
"goodbye to the money" dumping a useless gold and silver artifact into lava
"look at me, what have i become" a husk, zombie, vampire, or insane adventure could fit this
"I am lost, i was once a gentleman" either a were-creature attack or a noble falling to spikes
"so i must leave you now" "but i will remember" "all the ups and downs" another "goodbye my friends" could all fit perfectly into a montage for boatmurderd
"Adieu to the fuckers who think its funny" a stark raving mad dwarf and a tantruming dwarf

in other news, this song is awesome and it would be awesome to use it with DF

Sounds like you already have the key idea in your head. Good luck!
