If I made a call for filks, would anyone participate?? as a massive wizardwrock fan and Leackcast listener, it would always be a tradition of mine to listen to Leaky's compilation of submitted filks for christmas. And with so many talented people in the Ice and Fire fandom, i was wondering if we had a similar love of turning anything we can get our hands on into an Ice and Fire art project. for those who don't know, a Filk is when you take a known song and just rewrite the lyrics. So what I'm suggesting is us taking karaoke versions of Christmas or Holiday songs and rewriting the lyrics to Ice and Fire themes. And for those brave souls, recording our version and we could put them together for a special Christmas episode so that everyone can hear our butchered attempts at singing. I admit, I've been wanting to create a Cercei version of 'Favourite Things' for a long time now and may just be using this as an excuse to hide my craziness in a pile of others craziness but hey, lets all be crazy together, yes? Anyone with me? Yay, Nay? What say ye people! please be yes.

Can't figure out exactly what to call it, but there you are.
On the [whatever whatever whatever], my true king gave to me:
12 Mummers mumming 11 Rapers raping 10 Lords-a-lying 9 Ladies plotting 8 Maids-a-spying 7 Kraken swimming 6 Boltons flaying 5 clashing kiiiings 4 direwolves 3 dragons Too many Freys
... and a bastard of incest or three!

yes, 12 days has to be done ^_^ though i'd suggest changing 6 to direwolves... dying? not sure, and 7 to kingdoms crumbling.

great things here although my creativity and singin-talent will condemn me of only passively participating. i realy love the 12 days of christams idea and there at least is enough potential to bring in some more heirs to the iron islands, aching loins and feathered hats...

The Muppets' Mahna Mahna song is just begging to have all its words changed to "Hodor".

Seven Kingdoms. *foreheadslap* jesicka309 wrote: And the last line could be "and a raven in a weir wood tree" Ooh, I like that! I do like "four direwolves", just because it fits in with the rhythm (I think?) and the animal listing at the end. (And anyone who counts will count and get it )

I like #1-5, #7, and #12. Here are some suggested tweaks... - For the sake of syllables, how about 3 dragon eggs? Edit: oops, scratch that, 'dragons' does match 'French hens'
- 10 names for Tormund (based on the 9 nicknames in his TotH bio)
- N of Theon's teeth - how many has he lost?
- On the Nth day of [some Westerosi occasion], George R R conjured up - because no one character is in a position to give all those things

to the tune of "we three kings of orient are" We five kings of westeros are bearing arms , we march off to war , sound trumpet and horn , from the wall down to Dorne , Our omens a firery star
Oh , star of flame, scars day and night five kings fight for one birthright all want to own , the iron throne , and plot to win with guile and might
these five kings were soon only four, killed by the shade of a red-headed whore, the story's told, how the tent it grew cold , Renly's left bleeding and dead on the floor,
these four kings were soon down to three, when balon greyjoy fell in the sea, in the drowned god's hall , with a push or a fall? a watery end to his regency
these three kings were soon down to one both Robert's and Ned's young heirs were soon done weddings purple and red , they both wound up dead in the war in which nobody won to the tune of "Silent Night" Silent knight , unholy knight , aerys tore his tongue out in spite, 'round Kings Landing he broods and he scowls, one look from him it can loosen your bowels he keeps the kings's justice and peace by making all traitors deceased
Silent knight , unholy knight , no way, is is bark , worse than his bite, he stole old Ice, from our favourite Stark , Ned he first took his sword , and he then took his head, we hope he dies ill and in pain we're all scared of ser Illyn Payne merry christmas

to the tune of "While shepherds watched" while lahzareen watched their flocks by night all seated on the ground, A khalasar a'horse charged down, hooves flying all around ; "Oh bugger" they said , their troubled brows, were siezed by mighty dread "any chance you could kill our wives first please , and rape us guys instead?"

to the tune of "Walking in a winter wonderland" Hodor snores , you're not listening' 'coz in your dreams , your fur is brist'ling in the woods on the prowl, you hear the pack howl, warging in a winter wonderland
gone away , are your legs bran, but when you sleep, you're a wolf-man you'd rather run with the pack, than on hodor's back, warging in a winter wonderland
by the wall you meet a man called coldhands who takes you north to meet the three eyed crow, "will I walk again?" but he says "No , bran, and you'll turn into a tree before you go"
when you dream , you are summer, but when you wake , it's a bummer, you can't walk , run or dance , but you do get a chance when warging in a winter wonderland
As a boy you'll never walk the land bran, you'll never learn to track or hunt or hike, but it's better as a wolf than as a man bran, 'coz you can shag and shit just where you like,
by the way , you're a cripple , but you dream , of meera's nipples and you wonder a while ,"would she do doggy-style" while warging in a winter wonderland and you wonder a while " would she do doggy-style", warging in a winterwonderland warging in a winter wonderland quite pleased with that one

to the tune of "rudolph the red nosed reindeer" Sandor the canine psycho, has a very ugly face , and if you ever saw it, you would know it's his disgrace, his big giant brother gregor, used to laugh and call him names , he wouldn't let poor sandor , play with any gregor games, then one fateful winter's eve , Sandor had to play With Gregor's shiny new toy knight, so he calmly set his face alight oh how young sandor suffered, the pain it made him scream and shout, now a man, we know poor sandor , is scarred for life , both in and out sorry ashley

Hmmm...I might take on the rewrite "I saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus" to " I saw Cersei Boinking Moon Boy". Singing it though? That's gonna be something I may need some liquid courage for!!

I would love to hear "Let it Snow" as sung by Stannis and the North Remembers Choir...I bet Stannis is a baritone.

Damn, now I can't get Sansa and Littlefinger singing "Baby It's Cold Outside" at the Eyrie as they make little snow Winterfells out of my head! There definately needs to be a Song of Ice and Fire Very Special Christmas where Jon Snow must help a stranded Santa Claus return to the North Beyond the Wall, Dany learns the true meaning of Christmas as she must bring Joseph, Mary, and the baby Jesus to Mereen on the back of Drogon, and Cersei is visited by a friendly raven who shows her how much better the 7 kingdoms would be if she had never been born.

although it's about Thanksgiving, I'll attempt Jingle Bells Bashing their heads in the snow As many Freys as we can slay O'er Redgrass Field we go Slaughtering all the way Heads on nooses sway Lead by the Lord of Light What vengeance she will bring A Slaying Song tonight
Oh nooses swaying, nooses swaying, Swaying all the way Oh, what fun it is to fight Freys and them slay Nooses swaying, Nooses Swaying Nooses all the way, Oh what fun it is to fight Freys and them slay
A moon's turn or two ago, I thought I'd need to hide, And Soon the Lord of Light Had turned me to his side, The Brotherhood was firm and frank, Misfortune seemed their lot, We tried to ransom a girl to make bank, But then she got lost.
Oh nooses swaying, nooses swaying, Swaying all the way Oh, what fun it is to fight Freys and them slay Nooses swaying, Nooses Swaying Nooses all the way, Oh what fun it is to fight Freys and them slay, yeah
nooses swaying, nooses swaying, Swaying all the way Oh, what fun it is to fight Freys and them slay Nooses swaying, Nooses Swaying Nooses all the way, Oh what fun it is to fight Freys and them slay, yeah

to the tune of"the christmas song" (chestnuts roasting) seven gods roasting on an open fire ruby glowing at your neck maester cressen and his creaking hips lies choking on the deck
shadow babies seeping from your vag poor old renly bit the dust but the night ,is dark , and full of terrr's and you're sure your cause is just
you think stannis is azor ahai tho' you make his sword shine oh so bright but you drain his life , as you drain his cock , in his bed , most every night
and so I'm offering this simple phrase to kids from one to ninety-two, although ,it's been said , many times, many ways, mellissandre , who are you? im willing to have a crack at singing these ashley, I cd record them on my phone , but I have problems uploading pics, so I dont know about vids. will it go thru forums or you tube? how do you see it going?
