dead man right there
One fine day in the middle of the night, two dead men got up to fight! Back to back they faced each other, drew their swords and shot each other.
I recognize this from somewhere. Is it a German proverb?
I don't know if it has another origin but Cadwell recites this right before you first meet him in Coldharbour. (Elder Scrolls Online) Except I believe they drew their bows and stabbed themselves.
Its much older then that. I heard it in 1999
Huh, I had no idea, now I'm curious where it's originally from.
I learned this as a kid in the '70s.
A deaf policeman heard the noise, and came and shot those two dead boys. If you don't think my story's true, ask the blind man. He saw it too..
