Let's start my GaFilk reporting off with a little song, OK?

Here's the link to the Filk Archive (I believe you will need to register to get there, but it's run to Martin Gordon-Kerr, so I believe it's perfectly safe):

http://filkarchive.scrumpy.org/cgi-bin/song.cgi?FileID=290

And the name of the song is:

Deborah Marion Kazumi Yow-Hoo You-Betcha-Baby Ridpath Ohi


Deborah Marion Kazumi Yow-Hoo You-Betcha-Baby Ridpath Ohi
by Paul Kwinn, 1/5/07
(To the tune of The Banana Slug Song)

Canada is currently a fine democracy
But there is someone who believes that's not how it should be

Deborah Marion Kazumi
Yow-Hoo You-Betcha-Baby
Ridpath Ohi the First

This voting thing is just a silly game of raising hands
With Deb in charge Canucks would simply do as she commands

There'll be no right to privacy, under her regime
If she's been inside your house then you know what I mean

The Mounties will be issued tuques with Debbie's picture, eh?
And rocket speeder bikes to chase Americans away

She will require increased greenhouse gasses in the air
Til Canada's the paradise she always wanted there

The literacy rate will be one hundred twelve percent
Although as you can see the math skills sort of up and went

And once she's annexed USA and also Mexico
The EU will surrender, they can't beat the dimpled foe

You surely don't believe her royal line will end at one
Why as we speak, the cloning work has already begun
(and soon we'll have)

Deborah Marion Kazumi
Yow-Hoo You-Betcha-Baby
Ridpath Ohi the Second


The audience's "Eh?"s were an ingenious invention of their own, a modification of the "Hey!"s in Debbie's song "Paul Stanley Kwinn".

Ahem. (cough-cough)
Perdon moi for bringing up a delicate subject...
Is there underwear worn on heads anywhere in this?
I suspect there ought to be something embarrassing with pink ribbons.
Or something.

No, no underwear on heads. Just displayed, in hand, during the intro, then flung at Debbie. After the song, Debbie beat me with it.

Okay, that settles it; I *must* make a trip in to Carson-Newman today to use their T10. Kip will simply have to sit quietly reading a book for five minutes while I swipe his connection.

Ok, I deserved that. :-D Plus it WAS highly amusing to hear the whole room enthusiastically yell "EH?" at the end of every chorus.

How long did it take you to find a way to make that long name scan?!?

And Jeff seemed to enjoy hearing his family name shouted out repeatedly by a roomful of people, too.

Actually, for some reason, the Banana Slug Song just came to me. When there were two syllables left at the end, the first thing that occurred to me to fill it with was "the First", and thus I had my song concept. I came up with 2 or 3 verses while Beck was driving me to the airport, and wrote the rest on the plane.
