More Old Filks Re: [the_old_crowd] FILK: Dumbledore's Dead

[Randy Estes]

I really like this one too.

I used "We can work it out" and "Hey You've got to
hide your love away" to do filks when Book 5 came out
and everyone was upset about Sirius.  If you care to
see them, I copied them into this email.

I'm thinking of starting Red Eye Randy and the Dancing
Inferi Band...perhaps you can join us !  

I like the sound of Red Eye Randy's Dancing Inferi
Band...(perhaps a concept album with all of Harry's
friends and enemies on the cover...) Sung to the tune
of Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band:

First song could start off :

"It was 20 years ago today. 
Voldemort took their souls away.   
They've been dead for really quite awhile.
But their moves have got a certain style.
So may I introduce to you.
Those folks you haven't seen for years.
Red Eye Randy's Dancing Inferi Baannnnnddddd!"

Anyway, the old songs are listed below:


DJ takes to microphone....I'd like to dedicate the
following to Penny and Carole and all you lovely
ladies out there in cyberspace....

After reading all the posts on this "old crowd" list,
I feel we should follow this one up with an old
Beatles' tune:

sung to the tune of
Hey, You've Got to Hide Your Love Away!
By Lennon & McCartney


Hey, She Just Can't Kill off Sirius Black!
words by Randy Estes

Here I stand book in hand
Just got back from the mall.
Now he's gone I can't go on
Feelin' two foot small.

I read Book four and yelled for more
I waited three long years
Then I find she's lost her mind
I'm fighting back the tears!

Hey, She just can't kill off Sirius Black!
Hey, She's got to bring my Sirius Back!

Waited in line to get Book five
I stayed up way too long
Then I read that my baby's dead
How could things go so wrong?

How can she say to me
Harry will find a way.
I don't care cause it's just not fair
Sirius Black must stay!

Hey, She just can't kill off Sirius Black!
Hey, She's got to bring my Sirius Back!

JKR, wherever you are
You've got some explaining to do!
Listen hon, our Fanfics aren't done
And he's our favorite dude!

Hey, You just can't kill off Sirius Black!
Hey, Go find some way to bring him back!

Hey, You just can't kill off Sirius Black!
Hey, Find a way to bring Padfoot Back!

musical interlude....

JKR's response...
sung to the tune of 
We Can Work it Out 
by the Beatles

"I Just Wrote Him Out!"
words by Randy Estes

Try to see it my way
I could get it right and still you'd think that its
all wrong!
Why should I do it your way?
If I left him in, then these books would all be twice
as long!

What's this all about?
I just wrote him out!

These books aren't that short and there's no time 
For fussing and fighting my friends.
I have always thought these characters were mine
So I will ask you once again.

Try to see it my way
Only time will tell if I am right or I am wrong.
It's not your story anyway
And who's this idiot who keeps writing these stupid
songs! :0)

What's this all about?
I just wrote him out!

These books aren't that short and there's no time 
For fussing and fighting my friends.
I have always thought these characters were mine
So I will ask you once again.

Try to see it my way
I'm the one in charge and there are things that you
don't know.
Why should I do it your way?
My husband's getting jealous and said that Padfoot's
got to go!

What's this all about?
I just wrote him out!

music fades...."That's another back to back hit
request on WJKR ...All Potter....All the time...."
