MANIAC (Sung to the tune of Maniac from the movie
Flashdance)
A medieval girl at Pennsic merchant row
Looking for the buy of her life
In the real time world no one sees her at all
They all say shes crazy
Finding bargains to the beat of her heart
Changing money into things
She is shopping into the danger zone
When her camp site can hold no more
It became her whole way of life
When the hunt became the thing
On the edge between retail and wholesale
Shes a maniac--maniac at Pennsic War
And shes shopping like
shes never shopped before
Shes a maniac--maniac at Pennsic War
And shes shopping like
shes never shopped before
She buys ice blue bolts of silk brocade
For a Tudor gown, you see
Then theres a steel gorget for her lord
With matching brigandine
She worked all her life for the money to spend
Bargains come or pass you by
Its a push, shove world but theres always
tonight
At Moonlight Madness Night
Theres spices and amber beads
Fabric, books and sparkly stuff
Always shopping with her head for the deal
Shes a maniac--maniac at Pennsic War
And shes shopping like
shes never shopped before
Shes a maniac--maniac at Pennsic War
And shes shopping like
shes never shopped before
It became her whole way of life
When the hunt became the thing
On the edge between retail and wholesale
Shes a maniac--maniac at Pennsic War
And shes shopping like
shes never shopped before
Shes a maniac--maniac at Pennsic War
And shes shopping like
shes never shopped before

Blessed are they who can laugh at themselves for they
shall never cease to be amused.
