PP Song Parody : The Fandango Tango
Yet again I try a Tom Lehrer parody for the Puzzle Pirates world, though at least maybe this song is more well-known? (At least ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
degauss better get it :P)
The background is simple; Homullus is heading up a new crew of "famous" people called Fandango Familiars to "bully the ocean" by extortion and whatnot. It has caused a lot of bitching on the PP forums, but in all honesty, most of us are just like "Ah, who the scupper cares." Hence, I sing you:
The Fandango Tango
(to the tune of "The Masochism Tango" by Tom Lehrer)
I ache for excitement at sea, mate.
And much more for a good PvP, mate.
You shoot a lot
But never get shot
As we fight in the blockade by Fandango.
Let our fighting be fair, not a landslide
Say you'll gun for me with both your hands tied.
Your frigs run hoops
'Round their puny sloops
As we fight in the blockade by Fandango.
On your war brig
I'll sing and dance a jig
And bring aboard a pig (Eww!)
It's here that I must be.
I like to carp
And hide under a tarp
And stab with stuff that's sharp
So come and swordfight me
To generate fear and hostility
Was their primary responsibility
Their intent from the start
Was this bullying art
Which is why people tart about Fandango
You stole my crew
For your rockstar elite, Hom,
I'll be shooting your fleet, Hom,
Every time I fill guns.
And I may misconstrue
All the goals of your group, Hom
As I stand on this sloop, Hom
Rhyming into these puns
Your war frigate sunk all our Tenches
The last time we hired fifty wenches
To carp up the wall
You smashed with your ball
When we fought in the blockade by Fandango.
Destroy my sails
And take away my nails
And kick over our pails
And raid my monger's stock
I know too well
How we can all rebel
So Fangoes, if you smell
Something burning, it's the dock. (Oh, blimey!)
Turn yourselves around in that cutter
And flee 'fore we shoot into your rudder
Whisk yourselves home
And leave us alone
'Cause we're all sick of hearing 'bout Fandango!
