 You're fighting a talking head

And you may find yourself confronted by a talking head. And you may find yourself trying to defend yourself. And you may ask yourself "what is that head doing here?" And you may tell yourself "this doesn't make any sense!"

Critical Hit Message:

Miss Message(s):

It takes a wild, wild bite at you, but misses. And I know that's the way you like it, woah-oh.

The head was biting and then you were dodging, and it was.

It tries to headbutt you, but you ain't got time for that now.

It tries to bite you, but can't find you. Looks like it's blind, blind. Blind, blind, blind, blind, blind.

Fumble Message:

It spews gibberish at you. It must have gotten older and stopped making sense. (FUMBLE!)
