An Open Filk to Leslie Fish

 (ttto: King Herod's Song [Try It and See]

         From "Jesus Christ, SuperStar")



Leslie, I would really love to meet you face to face,

You have gotten quite a name here in cyberspace.

Writing filk songs, heard within your head.

But I'm not really sure if you are living or you're dead.



Well, I've heard of you Fish, yes the one Leslie Fish.

Not that it's the latest rage,

Do you have your own web page?

If you do that's so swell, 

Send me your U R L.

C'mon singer of filk.



Leslie I just can't believe the hit you are 'round here.

Seems you're always talked about, they love you more than beer!



Oh it's a pity, it's the saddest thing,

I've never been a single place where I could hear you sing!



So where are you Fish, Miss or Ms Leslie Fish?

Do you commute back and forth,

In the South or in the north?

Do you live close to me, in Upcountry SC?

C'mon singer of filk!



I hate to ask this 'cause I know that you're a star,

Tell me where to find the songs that made you what you are.

Gotta hear them, so I can be your fan.

(I only just found out that you're a woman not a man!)



Well that's it for me, Fish, yes my dear Leslie Fish.

There's so much I could have said,

But I gotta get to bed!



Please don't take this filk wrong,

I worked on it so long.

So long you singer of filk!



Hey! Are you really out there?

If not that's just unfair!

What a joke if you're not real,

A really crummy deal.



I'm outta time, and running out of rhymes.

Goodbye you singer of 

So long you singer of filk.

Fare well you singer of filk. And have a good life!
