Kalum Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 Whilst I can't take the credit fer pennin' this here fine tune...I felt the need t' be sharin' it...so 'ere it is. Enjoy it mates... Here be a little back story fer ya: "This song tells of a lavish ball at the castle of Cairrigh Muir, that was sabotaged by evil-minded pranksters. It involved three crucial elements: the punch being spiked with a potent aphrodisiac; painfully itchy rose-hip seeds being thrown on the dance-floor, where they were kicked up into the ladies' undergarments; and, at a crucial and premeditated moment, all the lights in the castle being extinguished. What followed next was, by all accounts of the day, 'an orgy of sich greet magnituid, that twenty-four acres of corn wuir f***ed absolouitly flat.'" -Anonymous Four and twenty virgins Came down from Inverness And when the ball was over There were four and twenty less Chorus: Singin' balls to your partner Arse against the wall, If ye never been laid on a Saturday night Ye never been laid at all! (Chanting, "Wank, wank, wank..." etc.) There was screwin' in the parlor There was screwin' on the stones Ye couldnae hear the music For the wheezin' and the groans The Queen of England she was there Backed up against the wall "Throw yer money on the table, boys I'm goin' tae do you all!" James the First and Sixth was there A sight you should've seen He was the King of England But he wanted to be the Queen... Ivan Grozhniy, he was there That awful Russian cad The Boyars called him "Terrible" But the ladies said "Not bad..." The Count and Countess, they were there A screwin' on the stair The bannister broke, and down they fell They finished in mid-air The village baker he was there And causing quite a scene When he bent the lassies over And he filled their buns with cream The undertaker, he was there He was wrapped up in his shroud A-hangin' from the chandelier And pissing upon the crowd The village cripple he was there But he could not do much So he lined the lassies against the wall And did 'em with his crutch The village postman, he was there But the poor man had the pox He couldnae do the lassies So he did the letterbox... The village idiot, he was there A sittin' by the fire Tryin' tae "get it on" With an India-rubber tyre The village magician he was there And he gave us all a laug When he pulled his foreskin over his head And disappeared up his arse... When he went out next morning The farmer nearly shat For four-and-twenty acres of corn Were fokkit nearly flat! And if you think I'm wicked Now I've sung this awful song The original's twice as dirty And it's fourteen times as long... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lorien_stormfeather Posted April 28, 2005 Share Posted April 28, 2005 Bedlam Bards: Take Out The Trash Their's is called the " The Ball Of Ballinor " "Take Out the Trash is fifty minutes of songs that Hawke, Cedric, and Lilly couldn't sing in front of their mothers (well, okay, not in front of Lilly's mother). Recorded deep in the recesses of the lost pines, TOT includes original songs not available anywhere else. Parents Beware: The explicit lyrics warning is no joke, even if everything else on the album is. " Order the CD here.... And since we be talking "BARDS" and it is one week 'till Glastonbury Faire- Oregon's first for the season!!! HUZZAH!!! Here's one of me favorite pieces of filk by the BROBDINGNAGIAN BARDS: If I Had A Million Ducats Background: Medieval parody of Barenaked Ladies song "If I Had A $1000000". Original Words and Music by Steven Page & Ed Robertson. From: A Faire To Remember music by Steven Page & Ed Robertson, words by Andrew McKee, Marc Gunn & Nancy e. Pearsall If I had a million ducats (If I had a million ducats) I'd buy you a keep (I would buy you a keep) If I had a million ducats (If I had a million ducats) I'd buy you furniture for your keep (Like a Louis the XIV or an armoire) If I had a million ducats (If I had a million ducats) I'd buy you a big coach (with all the pretty with fringe on the top) If I had a million ducats I'd buy your love. If I had a million ducats (We wouldn't have to hunt for our game) If I had a million ducats (We'd hunt for sport cuz it's not the same) If I had a million ducats (We'd have peasants grow food all around the keep) And we'd have a big garden. (A maze garden) With high protein-enriched food (like lentils) And bambi and thumper playing in it. If I had a million ducats (If I had a million ducats) I'd buy you a fur cloak But not a woolen cloaks. That's cruel If I had a million ducats (If I had a million ducats) I'd buy you an exotic pet (Like a dragon or a leviathan) If I had a million ducats (if I had a million ducats) I'd buy a saint's remains (And all those crazy lucky saint's bones) If I had a million ducats I'd buy your love. If I had a million ducats (We wouldn't have to walk to the faire) If I had a million ducats (We'd hire a knight carry us there) If I had a million ducats (We wouldn't have to get our feel all dirty) We wouldn't have to walk in the filth. (We'd have people throw cloaks on the ground like for Sir Walter Raleigh) Or even better, peasants (on all fours) If I had a million ducats (If I had a million ducats) I'd be you a bed (But not bed of nails. That's cruel) If I had a million ducats (If I had a million ducats) I'd buy you some art (a Michaelangelo or Donatello) If I had a million ducats (If I had a million ducats) I'd buy you a monkey (haven't you always wanted a monkey?) If I had a million ducats, If I had a million ducats If I had a million ducats, If I had a million ducats We'd be kings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
