Those are awsome Kittywitch
Thank you! smile I had insominia last night and wrote this, insired by some of the stuff eariler on the thread. It's not as good as the other two, but I was impressed by how fast it happened. I just started singing it, making up the words as I went along.

Admittedly, I've only heard "going viking" used as a verb once, and it was in a song, so it might have been changed to scan.

Quote:

A-Viking to the tune of "A-Wassailing"
Here we go a-viking the countryside so green
Here we go a-raiding, picking the hamlets clean
We will rape and pillage, too
And we'll burn it when we're through
We'll be back to do it again next year
Yes, we'll be back again next year

While some of us are traders who sail from shore to shore
Most of us are raider who you have seen before
And we'll keep on raiding you
And we'll take that Dane Geld, too
We'll be back to do it again next year
We'll be back again next year

We'll kill the master of the house and rape the mistress, true
And all their little childern, then in our longship go
Then we'll eat some lukefisk stew
It's the dark ages, what can you do?
And we'll be back again to do it next year
We'll be back again next year.

REPOST OF "NAUGHTY YOUNG MAIDS OF AN TIR"

Drachenwald girls will do it for pearls
Atlantians do it for jade
But if you want dames
Like consuming flames
Try an An Tirian maid.

OH! Hey nonny nonny hey nonny nonny lets give a cheer,
Lets give a cheer for the Maids of An Tir
Hey nonny nonny hey nonny nonny lets give a cheer,
For the naughty young Maids of An Tir.

If you like round asses
Try out Eastern lasses
For busoms you have to go West
But if you crave thighs
And passionate sighs
The wenches of An Tir are best.

OH! Hey nonny nonny hey nonny nonny lets give a cheer,
Lets give a cheer for the Maids of An Tir
Hey nonny nonny hey nonny nonny lets give a cheer,
For the naughty young Maids of An Tir.

Caid wenches put out for a flagen of stout
The Outlanders do it for mead
But up in An Tir they will buy you the beer
And give you whatever you need.

OH! Hey nonny nonny hey nonny nonny lets give a cheer,
Lets give a cheer for the Maids of An Tir
Hey nonny nonny hey nonny nonny lets give a cheer,
For the naughty young Maids of An Tir.

Out in Atenveldt they’ll go down on a Celt
Out in Ansteorra they bite
Out in Calontir they screw once a year
But in An Tir they screw every night.

OH! Hey nonny nonny hey nonny nonny lets give a cheer,
Lets give a cheer for the Maids of An Tir
Hey nonny nonny hey nonny nonny lets give a cheer,
For the naughty young Maids of An Tir.

The girls of Trimaris are hot where their hair is
So is the Meridies maid
The girls of the Middle
Will cuddle a little
But An Tir is where you’ll get laid!

Hey nonny nonny hey nonny nonny lets give a cheer,
Lets give a cheer for the Maids of An Tir
Hey nonny nonny hey nonny nonny lets give a cheer,
For the naughty young Maids of An Tir!

I am quite the filky lad myself.

I have written many an sca-related filk, and of quite diverse topics:

fighting
wars
fighting at wars
going to war
coming home from war

Oh who am I kidding... I'm just a stick jock, and I don't have brain cells to spare for other thoughts.


This I must credit to the (tragically non-AOAed) Caelia the Bold--
[title is yet undecided, to the tune of Queen's "The Show Must Go On"]
*As a note, this is just finished and may be tweaked based on audience reactions, Caelia's fancy, etc.


Early mornings--armor from days of yore
Obsolete tech they don't use anymore
Here we are
They wonder why we choose to wear such funny clothes
Another battle, another day to fight
Out on the erik, some don't strike with might
That was light!
I'm not gonna take it if it isn't good

Chorus:
The war must go on
The war must go on
Inside my armor's baking
The lines they may be breaking
But my gaurd still stays up

Whatever happens I'll leave it all to chance
Another revive, another step to dance
Not again!
Does anybody know what we are holding for?
I guess I'm learning to take it all in stride
Every battle a fight with my own pride
No s**t there I was really--
But no one seems to hear me bradding yet again

[chorus]

Honor of old, it seems, at long last has come nigh
Fairy-tales of yesterday will grow but never die,
You know why my friends
The wars must go on
The wars must go on
We'll keep bearing our shields
We're never gonna yeild
On with the war
Must get my fill
I love the kill
I have to find a foe who'll carry on
On with the war
The war must go on

If you meant Caelia's, then go ahead, so long as you credit her. She said she'd be honored to have her work shared. If you want I can send you a link to some of her other songs as well. In my opinion she's quite talented.

For the crediting, she is Caelia the Bold, a native of the barony of Starkhafn in the kingdom of Caid. The name is enough, but further information is useful if someone asks or something.

Well, it's been quite a while since I've checked into the Guild here. RL and other online stuff have tugged my attention away.

To re-introduce myself, I am known in the SCA as Seamus 'The Shameless' McGrail, and I've been titled a Fool at Large by the Fool's Guild of Jararvellir. Allow me to set up something of a background to the filk I'm about to offer up.
I've been a fan of many SCA songs, including Sons of the Dragon and Savage Daughter, since first hearing. There's something about them that really catches at my ears and makes me take notice. And I've even heard a wonderful filk of Savage Daughter called 'Darkest Nightmare', by his Lordship Darien Cordell. That one made me laugh harder than anything I'd heard for a while. I'd even heard that someone had done a filk of the song called Savage Father, as well, but I never got a chance to hear it. So, after kicking the idea around for a while, I actually got inspired to come up with my own version. Mwahahahaha.

So, without further ado, (or even worse, adon't) here's my filk. Think of it as 'Savage Father: The Shameless Remix.'

Chorus: I am my daughter's savage father, and you'd best step lightly whenever I'm near.
I am my daughter's savage father, and I'll not spare your hide if she comes home in tears.

My daughter's father, he is a fighter. He fights with broadsword, with spear, and with flail.
And he takes hits as well as he deals them, for her wears a cuirass and a good suit of mail.

(Chorus)

My daughter's father, he fights Florentine, with sword and dagger, or axe and mace.
And he will have the respect that you owe him, or he'll lay his rattan right upside your face.

(Chorus)

My daughter's father, he is a savage. He eschews his feast-gear, and eats with his hands.
He swills down his mead, and then when he belches, it echoes and rolls all through the north lands.

(Chorus)

My daughter's father, he is a drinker. He enjoys brandy and whiskey and ale.
He drinks his peers right under the table, where he leaves them to groan and complain into pails.

(Chorus)

My daughter's father, he is a warrior. To impress him, a hard fight must be won.
But come through Hell with your life and your honor, and on some distant day, he just might call you 'Son'.

(Chorus X3 to finish)

Thankew, thankew. Enjoy. It was a lot of fun to write. mrgreen

*takes a bow*

Thankew, thankew. It took more than a couple of boring shifts at work, tossing words about, until it all fit together just right. Glad you enjoy it. Share at will, but give due credit, of course. cool

Speaking of credit, you might mention that your filk was based on a song written by Mistress Wyndreth Berginsdottir. smile

Heh. I did mention it was a filk based on Savage Daughter. I just couldn't remember the name of the lady who'd written it. Thanks, hun. I don't know what I'd do without you. mrgreen
