Posted: Sat Dec 24, 2005 3:08 pm Post subject: The 12 days of xmas, Firefly/Serenity style!!! |
|
|
Okay, so its Christmas!!!!
So, put on your thinking caps, lets hear your best renditions
of the 12 days of xmas. (Isn't it great that we can't actually hear them! )
It can be a line or two, or just an idea.
We could always put them together later!!
For the very creative, lets see the whole version.
So you can copy:
Here are the original words:
On the first day of xmas, my true love gave to me,
A partridge in a pear tree.
On the second day of xmas, my true love gave to me,
2 turtle doves,
and a partridge in a pear tree.
On the third day of xmas, my true love gave to me,
3 french hens,
2 turtle doves,
and a partridge in a pear tree.
On the fourth day of xmas, my true love gave to me,
4 calling birds,
3 french hens,
2 turtle doves,
and a partridge in a pear tree.
On the fifth day of xmas, my true love gave to me,
5 golden rings,
4 calling birds,
3 french hens,
2 turtle doves,
and a partridge in a pear tree.
Okay, I think you all know the rest.
Here's the final verse:
On the twelfth day of xmas, my true love gave to me,
12 drummers drumming,
11 pipers piping,
10 lords a leaping,
9 ladies dancing,
8 maids a milking,
7 swans a swimming,
6 geese a laying,
5 golden rings,
4 calling birds,
3 french hens,
2 turtle doves,
and a partridge in a pear tree.
So, I will start it off, with a version my family and I put together for the FireFly series:
On the twelfth day of xmas, Firefly gave to me,
12 Alliance lying,
11 Reavers reaping,
10 Tracey's sleeping,
9 Rivers dancing,
8 Simon's stitching,
7 Inara's bathing,
6 Preachers praying,
5 Zoe'shootin' things,
4 wash's soaring,
3 captain's stealing,
2 Jayne's wearing hats,
and a Strawberry for Kaylee.
This one is my Ode to Serenity the Big Damn Movie!!!
On the twelfth day of xmas the Lord Joss gave to me,
a Government needing killing,
loved ones a dying,
great chinese swearing,
lots of arse-kicking,
much needed thieving,
buffer panels falling,
sexy whores a whorin',
many, Shiny, Things!!!
gun-toting birds,
a tight-panted captain,
something Browncoats love,
a Firefly, named Serenity!!!
Get to it guys!!!!
And have fun, with the singing and all!!!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!! |

The new Silent Night
Silent Wash, holey Wash
All is calm, all is ash.
Damn those Reavers,
Damn them to hell,
Zoe's in shock
And we are as well.
Sleep in Pax induced sleeep,
Sleep in Pax induced sleep.  _________________

'Twas the night before Christmas and all through the boat
Not a person was stirring, not even a 'coat
The stockings were hung by the engine with care
In hopes that St Nicholas soon would be there
The Tams were tucked up asleep in their beds
While visions of hodgeberries danced in their heads
And Mal in his bonnet and Jayne in his hat
Had just settled down for a long winter's nap
When up on the bridge there arose such a clatter
That Wash lept from his bed to see what was the matter
He ran to his chair and flicked all three switches
Checked out the cortex and did up his britches.
The stars were obscured but the engine did glow
And lit up the scene both above and below
There, what to his wondering eyes should appear
But a fleet of guild shuttles, all drifting quite near.
....
It's a work in progress, more to come  _________________ Mim's Muddle/twitter/Made by Mim |

Next verse
With eyes wide in wonder and grabbing the stick,
Wash called up the cap’n and Zoe real quick,
Serenity slowed and crew to the bridge came,
Jayne whistled, Kaylee grinned, ‘Nara called them by name!
Ooo! Rachel, and Tina, and Cory and Stephen!
There’s Rowan and Tara, Joe, Amy and Karen!
To the airlocks! To the cargo bay! Open the door!
Now wake up the preacher! We need victuals and more! _________________ Mim's Muddle/twitter/Made by Mim |

I've just realised how long the bloody poem actually is! It might take some time I'm off to do school stuff now but I'll get back to it later this afternoon. _________________ Mim's Muddle/twitter/Made by Mim |
