ES - Three Wise Guys

[Padraig Ruad]

As I had promised to do, I am posting the words to "Three Wise Guys", the filk I performed at Elfsea's Fool's Revel last Saturday.  I enjoyed myself immensely, and am very pleased that my song proved so amusing.  The hour+ drive to and from work every day is very conducive to working on songs, stories and poetry.  :)

THREE WISE GUYS
(to the tune of We Three Kings)
Padraig Ruad O’Maolagain

Three wise guys of Elfsea are we
The No-Count, the Duck and His Travesty
You might enjoy us 
But don’t annoy us
For we are fools, you see

(Chorus)
O-oh,
Fools
 you wonder if we’re right
Pretending that we’re not too bright
We’ll get a way with
Much behavior
That should get us banished outright

I am the Lord of Elfsea Misrule
Surely you know that I am a fool
My bell will ring
Til your nerves sing
For torture, my favorite tool


Juggling to offer have I
Sorry about that ball in your eye
Sometimes I drop them
I can’t stop them
Though I do really try


I admit, I’m not really a clown
I just stole that other fool’s crown
You should have seen it
No one could believe it
Turned the place upside down
