From: "Stefano Busti" Newsgroups: alt.fan.pratchett Subject: [I] Filk - Girls and Dwarfs Date: 22 Nov 1999 16:34:13 GMT A song which has recently become popular among some dwarfs to help allay dissatisfaction with Ankh-Morporkean ways and the rarity of gold. Hopefully a few people will have heard the original... Girls and Dwarfs (to the tune of Blur's Girls and Boys) Mine's like a jungle But we know our craft Following the clan Down the shaft (Digging for gold) Gold in the Ramtops Is hard to find In dusty caverns Take your chan-ces, searching with [chorus, x2] Dwarfs who are boys Who like boys to be girls Who wear skirts like they're girls And have beards like they're boys Always should be someone who digs for gooold Avoiding all work 'Cos there's no gold available Like battery diggers Count their nuggets on 1 2 3 4 5 fingers Nothing to find here Only some iron ore Who's that dwarf I see? Ha'ak Ha'ak Ha'ak Ha'aak![1] But we haven't been introduced. [chorus, x2] Dwarfs who are boys Who like boys to be girls Who wear skirts like they're girls And have beards like they're boys Always should be someone who digs for gooold [1] In some of the more easily offended dwarfish communities, these last three lines have been replaced by: But what's that I see? Gold Gold Gold Gold! But we haven't been introduced. -- || Stefano Busti - see headers for afpcode || http://www.lspace.nildram.co.uk/ -- (_8-(|) "Spot the Homer and win a can of Duff beer"
