From: "Joy Green" Newsgroups: alt.fan.pratchett Subject: [I] A filk for Lady Sybill Date: Wed, 24 Nov 1999 21:27:47 +1300 Apologies in advance to all. I may be doing a lot of filking over the next few weeks as it's something I *can* do while stuck in bed. Anyway the tune: 'Only You' by Yazoo/Flying Picketts. The narrator: Lady Sybill Ramkin Seems I spent my whole life alone In my ancestral home I was content to, Dragons occupied all my thoughts Were my passion and cause And my friends too Then I met him and my whole life changed I know that people must have found it strange But he's no common man, Not my Sam Yes, he is a Guard to the core It's his love for the law That defines him He doesn't feel at home in my set And the whole etiquette Quite confines him But though he's very little time for me He's all the husband that I hoped he'd be A strong and decent man, Is my Sam There's no way you could call him posh He's as blunt as a cosh And as stunning He's the kind of man who's direct But when you need him you bet He'll come running And I know with Samuel by my side I get a feeling of enormous pride A very special man Is my Sam Joy
