Filkers Were There (a filk)

[Haggridd]

No: HPFGUIDX 74131

Here is a little thing inspired by our fun at Nimbus 2003.  It is  
filk of "Buddy Beware", from the 1987 Lincoln Center revival of Cole 
Porter's "Anything Goes".

I have had no luck finding a MIDI.  

As usual, asterisks indicate italics, unless otherwise specified.


This filk is dedicated to all who gathered at the Filkers' Safe 
House over the course of the convention, but most especially to Gail 
B.


             Filkers Were There


FILK MAVEN:
Come on, fellas, writing filks is for the birds.
Who needs it?


HP FANS: 
We do!

FILK MAVEN:
Yeah?

Filkers were there,
At the Nimbus Affair,
We had the best of times
Placing difficult rhymes
In an HP air.

At Nimbus 2003
A "Filkers' Safe House" marquee 
Said that within there were friends
Cozy environs
Fine for Filk Mavens. 

At the Head of the pack,
Fiery Gail Bohacek
All activities planned;
We were hers to command
In the Filkers' lair.

In this venue were bestowed
To each who wrote the best ode.
Token of our high esteem
For each "Filk Supreme"
Was a Pickled Toad.

Though it may seem bizarre,
We took over the *sushi* bar.
All the *karakoke*
Were in praise of HP.
Yes, Filkers were there!
