From: Adrian Ogden Newsgroups: alt.fan.pratchett Subject: [I][FILK] The Breasts Are Coming To Get Us Date: 24 Jan 2003 00:03:00 GMT It was a night on #afp, just like any other, and some of the denizens started comparing their breasts. In response I idly threatened to filk this, only to have Mole take me up on it and start writing lines for real. So it's all his fault. :-) It's the second time Mole & I have co-written a filk, and it was based on the same song the first time as well. Odd, that. We'd've posted it a few days ago, only by then there was a thread on breast-related fantasies going on, so we decided to wait a little. And now it's far too late to be topical, but tough. Here it is anyway. TTTO a song oft performed by our very own Gid Holyoake (The French are coming to get us", by a chap called Mitch Benn) Now as I lie here musing in my solitary bed, A single great obsession is ringing in my head; I've never felt the lack before of mistress or of wife, But this could be the ruin of the British fella's life; For the breasts are coming to get us, And they never will leave us alone, With their push-up bras And their aur-e-o-las And a gravity all of their own; Oh yes, the breasts are coming to get us, And the front of battle draws near, With their lacy enhancements, cosmetic advancements And cleavages, teats and brassieres; We cannot take this lying down, we have to make a stand The threat to common decency is getting out of hand; I've tried to keep my dignity, I've tried to keep my grip But it's getting very hard to keep the old stiff - upper lip... Because The breasts are coming to get us, They'll come for you while you sleep They'll creep into bed and envelop your head In a quivering mammary heap; Their ranks are dressed up Bristol fashion, They're awaiting the final command, They'll advance on all fronts in their mammary hunt And you'd better not give them a gland. Yes, the breasts are coming to get us, They're weaving their magical spells With their motions erotic and perfumes exotic And glittery tassels and bells Oh, I've tried every form of catharsis To keep my libido in check But a glimpse of a nip through a Freudian Slip And I end up an Oedipal wreck! This dreaming of mammary wibble Is now really getting too much; I'm deprived and I'm starting to dribble... My number's here, please get in touch! Adrian Ogden
