My Favorite Things (Revised)

Kassima: "My favorite thing in the world? Besides Lysseth and the spawn, y'mean? That'd have to be tormenting Mart. Or maybe Gwennar's lemon bread. But then there're Hatchings, and marks, and making men wear kilts, and drinking, and gossip, and... uh... can I get back to you on this?"

Note: Credits go to the writer of the original 'My Favorite Things,' of course, and also to M'rgan and I'sai (mostly the former) for inspiring this filk... though I doubt that was precisely their intent.

My Favorite Things (Revised)

Sharp knives and strong knives and Emasculators,
Paintings and ballads to embarrass later,
Men trapped in dresses with ribbons and strings--
These are a few of my favorite things.

Nigh-lethal liquors and humorous doodles,
Berries and wherries and evil cheese-noodles,
Bright greens that fly with the moons on their wings,
These are a few of my favorite things.

Bridge:
When brownies crow
About their Wings,
When they rant and rave,
I simply recount all my favorite things,
And then they don't feel so brave!

Tent peg-shaped pastries with real redfruit filling,
Frolics, adventure, and things that are thrilling,
Each mark a new wager to my pouch brings,
These are a few of my favorite things!

When I lose bets,
Or when Ryi sings--
When things go quite wrong,
I simply remember my favorite things
By singing this twisted song!
