Okay kiddies, this little piece of filk should
give you an idea of just WHAT Tristan and I have
been up to the last several months.  (Lurking?
Who was lurking.  It wasn't us.. Uh-huh...no
way...Just monster hunting.  'Sides which T-man
can't seem to go more than one day without
getting grounded yet again.

So I dedicate this little piece of fluff to
Listmommy 'Nay to help lift her spirits and cause
she's always after me to do more filk.

The Battle Of The Castle: (To the tune of The
Battle Of New Orleans)

In the year 2000,
we took a little trip.
We packed up all our gear,
in our might packs and split.
We took a liitle bacon,
and we took a liitle beans,
and we smote the bloody zombies,
straight down to New Orleans.

               Chorus:

We fired our guns,
but the zombies kept a'comin'.
There wasn't 'nye as many
as there was awhile ago.
We fired once more,
and they began to runnin'.
Down though the tunnels
and out of the castle.

               II:

We looked down the tunnels,
and we see the zombies come.
There musta been a hundred of 'em,
beaten on the drums.
They shuffled along,
with many shoutin' BWAINS.
We hid behind our earthenworks,
and didn't say a thing.

               Chorus:

We fired our guns,
but the zombies kept a'comin'.
There wasn't nye as many
as there was awhile ago.
We fired once more,
and they began to runnin'
Down though the tunnels,
and out of the castle.

                 III:

Ol' Danu said, we can take 'em by surprise,
if we didn't fire our weapons,
till we looked them in the eyes.
They shuffled along, with more giving yells.
Then we opened up and really gave them.....


Well.....We fired our guns,
and the zombies kept a'comin'
there wasn't 'nye as many
as there was awhile ago.
We fired once more,
and they began to runnin'.
Down though the tunnels,
and out of the castle.

Oh, they ran though the brier,
and they ran though the bramble.
They ran though the bushes
were a rabbit couldn't go.
They ran so fast,
that Sparky couldn't get them.
Down though the tunnels,
and out of the castle.

                 IV:

We kept up the fightin',
till the cannon melted down.
So we grabbed up Sparky,
and fought another round.
We filled his mouth with cannonballs,
and powdered his behind,
And when we lit the powder off,
Ol' Sparky lost his mind.  (He's still trying to
get us to repeat it he liked it so much.  So ummm
guys?, if you see Sparky wandering around with
his new cannonball?....DON'T LIGHT A MATCH!!!)

               Chorus:

We fired our guns,
and the zombies kept a'comin'
there wasn't 'nye as many
as there was awhile ago.
We fired once more,
and they began to runnin'.
Down though the tunnels,
and out of the castle.

Oh, they ran though the brier,
and they ran though the bramble.
They ran though the bushes
were a rabbit couldn't go.
They ran so fast,
that Sparky couldn't get them.
Down though the tunnels,
and out of the castle.
