I am going to have to blame Miaren for this one…
(original lyrics)
Mongolian! Oriental setting
And the staff don’t know what the guests are eating
The strange and the weird of the other world at a
meal with everything but ol’ Rialian.
Time fades – doesn’t seem a minute
Since the hotel spa had the goth bois in it
All change – these cards are not what you
Play, though this game’s at an ordinary venue
It’s New York, or Four Quarters, or Canada, or, or this place!
One night in DC and the world’s got stranger
The staff are human but the cards ain’t free.
You’ll find a space at any open table
And if you’re lucky then the god’s a sidhe
I can feel an angel sliding up to me.
One world’s very like another
When your seeming falls at an elven gather **
It’s a troll, it’s an orc, it’s really not that pretty
Don’t be looking at the fae, if you come from the city.
Whaddya mean? You seen one pointy-eared,
fluffy, toadstool eating…
Mead, food, wine, fire
Some are ready for the next forest meet.
Watch that! You’re looking for more’n this?
Now every move should be the surest
I meet my fae above the beltline, starshine.
One night in DC makes a dark elf grumble
Not much between fear and history
One night in DC and the winged ones stumble
Can’t be too careful with your company.
I can feel a devil sitting next to me
No one’s gonna be the witness
To the ultimate test of celestial fitness
This cuts me deeper than a
Shoddy old blade or silent mother.
Ignoring God who’s only watching the game
Following it.
I don’t see you guys seeking
The kind of mate I’m contemplating
I’d let you watch, I would invite you
But the fae we use might just bite you
So you better go back to your meals, your
homes, your peaceful nights…
One night in DC and the world’s got stranger
The staff are human but the cards ain’t free.
You’ll find a space at any open table
A little look a little fantasy
I can feel an angel sliding up to me.
One night in DC makes a dark elf grumble
Not much between their ears but fantasy
One night in DC and the winged ones stumble
Can’t be too careful with your company.
I can feel a devil standing next to me
** or the uncensored version:
One elf’s very like another
When your heads down over their piece, oh brother!
for which I disclaim all responsibility.
