Ke> ANOTHER Dr. Seuss filk? Oy............
Er, no. While the wording in that particular place may remind you
of the works of Dr. Suess, there is no direct connection.
Originally there was the "I Am Not A Nazi Polka", which was filked into
the "I Am Not A Ninja Polka" for the SCA, i.e.
Is that not a Khanate kit?
I have not a Khanate kit.
I am not a Ninja polka...
and is now being turned into the
Do> "--I am not a Pagan Polka."
Ke> Now where you got *this* one, I don't know. Enlighten me, please?
and now you know.
Hmmm.... How about a PRISONER version, i.e. the (WARNING - INSTAFILK)
"I Am Not A Number Polka"
As you travel through our little Village,
A melody will catch your ear
It's a melody that's been around our Village
For what seems like 30 years
Each and every Prisoner dances to the strains
of the I Am Not A Number Polka
All without exception join in the refrain
Of the IANANP
Is that not an escape kit?
I have not an escape kit
IANANP
Did you not help write this song?
I did not help write this song (Offstage shout - UNMUTUAL!)
IANANP
Did you not tell 2 our plan?
I did not tell... 2? Who's 2?
You never heard of 2?
No, never. Should I have? Is he a filksinger?
Well, he was (WAS) a little man, largish man,
(descriptions of various Number 2s, who changed
every week)
etc. etc. etc.
... Who ever said that reality had to work right?
