This filk of "C'est Magnifique" from Cole Porter's
"Can-Can", titled "C'est Gigantique", is just silly, but it tickled
me. Italics are indicated by asterisks (*) before and after the
relevent phrase.
The original music can be heard here:

I dedicate this filk to Neil Ward, in memory of an interesting and
pleasant correspondence over a year ago (which has nothing to do with
this filk).
C'est Gigantique
SCENE: Madame Maxime sings a paean to her new beau from Hogwarts.
MADAME MAXIME:
When he walks by
He looks me in the eye.
Oo la la la
*C'est Gi-gan-ti-que.*
With grace and force
He tames my winged horses.
Oo la la
*C'est Gi-gan-ti-que.*
I do not ask;
He shows me the First Task.
Oo la la la
It is such *ma-gi-que.*
And best of all,
He whispers,
"HEY, OLYMPE, SHAKE A LEG! WE'RE GONNA BE LATE FOR THE BALL!"
*C'est Gi-gan-ti-que.*
