N.F.I.
Words: Rhodri James
Music: "Demon in the Dark" (Kathy Mar and Brenda Sutton)
The pages of my songbook have been shuffled, have been leafed through,
And my newest songs are nowhere to be seen.
I cannot find the filk that I was going to perform for you,
And in your eye there lurks a curious gleam...
I cry for my lost, broken filksongs,
I weep for the last dying note,
But if only you could see what I'm holding
You would have been more careful what you wrote!
You broke into my filkbook as a pirate after plunder
And stole my songs while I was on the phone.
What kind of heartless monster would start filking without telling me,
And yet you say I really should have known?
I cry...
Be warned that I am holding here your folder as a hostage
But to stop this escalation I shall try.
If you look on the cover of my song-book you will find that I
Have tippexed one last message — "NO FILK I" !
I cry...
