The idea came whilst I was walking through Leicester at 4pm, singing this (not loud, just loud enough to get people to turn round, lost their concentration, and walk into someone else >:>)
So....here it is. AFAIK noone else has done one on the same song, and I did Google first.
AFPian Rhapsody
(To the tune of Bohemian Rhapsody, by Queen.)
Is this the real life? [1]
Is this just a.f.p?
Caught in a cascade
No escaping insanity

OK, I think the footnotes[SQRT(-1)] got a /little/ bit out of hand there[61]. Sorry about that. Won't happen again[62].
Anyone got any ideas about the bit I couldn't think of words for?
Matt
[1] This filk shared similarities with the words, too!
[2] Needs some words: in BR is 'Little high'
[3] NSW: 'Little low'
[4] the quiet voice
[5] insert plinky piano noise here
[6] can anyone think of anything better?
[7] Not me, obviously, someone else!
[8] not me either! [9]
[9] if this doesn't make sense, see [7][10]
[10] the order got messed up. see [11]
[11] this messes up the order even more. [11]
[12] I feel uncomfortable about this one
[13] Hey! A partial palindrome in that line!
[14] How do you stop spelling ooooooooooooooh?
[15] cf "Keyboard"
[16] Doesn't scan very well.
[17] Arrrrgh! Need more syllables! [18]
[18] How about "post-dum on, post-de on"
[19] It is. I have work to do.
[20] Only joking! [21] It's a /song/.
[21] Sorry if I broke any more keyboards then, cf [15]
[22] This isn't a quote, it's me making it up.
[23] Not that he would anyway, but it fits.
[24] NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! [25]
[25] A deranged mind.
[26] Quiet voice again
[27] Just a subtle hint on the preferances of the author.
[28] The quiet voice gets all the hard bits.
[29] 'Big' doesn't scan[30]
[30] Neither does stuffed.
[31] [32]I'm not implying that the Clue Faeries /would/ sit on chocolate,
BTW
[32] Please not: Upcoming sentance may contain artistic liscence. Read with
caution.
[33] Horray for Lodestone!
[34] Have you *seen* the claws on that thing!?!
[35] No, I can spell.
[36] no. Forgotten. Completely gone. What was I going to put here?
[37] Not true. Caused by an accident in the gym, but that doesn't rhyme.[38]
[38] Not that the rest of it rhymes.
[39] Translation: 'Where are the peanuts'
[40] 'Only if you give me a peanut'
[41] 'If you give me a peanut'
[42] 'Look, I only want a *peanut*. Or a banana'
[43] 'What is do hard to understand? Right. You give me a banana [44] and
I'll let you go. Oh, hello nightwatchman'.
[44] Or a peanut
[45] More correctly, 'Fall over'[46]
[46] Due to being drunk.
[47] BR has: 'So you think you can love me and spit in my eye?'
[48] BR has: 'So you think you can love me and leave me to die?'
[49] BR has: 'Oh baby!'
[50] BR has: 'Can't do this to me baby!'
[51] BR has: 'Just gotta get out'
[52] BR has: 'Just got to get right out of here!'
[53] BE has: '(ooooh, ooooh)'[54]
[54] it's that quiet voice again
[55] BR has: 'Nothing really matters'
[56] BR has: 'Anyone can't see'
[57] BR has: 'Nothing really matters'
[58] BR has: 'Nothing really matters'
[59] BR has: 'to me...'
[60] number of _ represents number of 'beats'
[61] I think that got out of more than just hand.
[62] Promise.
[SQRT(-1)] Is there a prize? Then I donate it to the Orang-utan foundation.
