THE PUREBLOOD GIRL'S LAMENT
(with apologizes to Buffy Ste. Marie)



Well, Draco be fair and Draco be fine and wants me for to wed
And I would marry Draco, but my father up and said
I'm sad to tell you daughter what you prob'ly shoulda knew
But Draco is my own nephew and so he's kin to you

Well, Blaise be fair and Blaise be fine and wants me for to wed
And I would marry Blaise, but my father up and said
I'm sad to tell you daughter what you prob'ly shoulda knew
But Blaise is my auntie's grandson and so he's kin to you

Well, Theo be fair and Theo be fine and wants me for to wed
And I would marry Theo, but my father up and said
I'm sad to tell you daughter what you prob'ly shoulda knew
But Theo's my youngest half-brother and so he's kin to you

You never seen a girl so sad and sorry as I was
The boys in school are all my kin and my father is the cause
If this should continue I shall die a single miss
So I'll go to mother and complain to her of this

Oh daughter, haven't I said what you see ain't what you get
Even if this all is true, still you needn't fret
Your father's kin may be a Gordian knot but still
Your real dad was a Muggle, so marry who you will

bwahahahahaha! I know the original song so that makes this all the more funny! :)

It was playing on my walkman when the idea got stuck in my head.

LOL. Was trying to make it scan to the original as I read.

My Bun will love it. Goes with her Slytherin suit.

It was tough, the version I'd been listening to had slightly different words from the lyrics on rhe Mudcat Cafe.

But yes... it's a very Slytherin song :)

Am pimping this on my journal. There's nothing like a good filk! Though I believe that Muggle is capped when used.

...and that is nothing like a good filk. *rimshot*

Gal you like it!


I think you're right about the capitalization, I'll peek at the Lex.

Brava! Very nice! Better filks than mine, at least.

Heh heh, excellent! I've read a prose version of that joke in Russian before, but not in English. Great job!

XD its really funny 'cause my co-worker/friend Melissa was singing the actual song today at work (she recently learned it at a ren faire she went to). I can't wait to show her this...
Atalanta Pendragonne: luscious[info]atalantapendrag on October 3rd, 2005 05:55 pm (UTC)

Hee! Very cute, and that does tend to be a problem with groups of any sort which are obsessed about "bloodlines", be they human or animal. You've gotta have a good wide genepool or problems just muptiply.

And it was a helluva lot easier than the Ridenow/Serrais version of "Baron of Brackley" I was foolish enough to muse about to [info]rikibeth... now she thinks I should actually write it.
