  • This thought was inspired in another thread when I started (or Kristin started - well, it was SOMEONE who started) fitting Kayda and Angst into familiar Christmas Carol titles. So I figured I'd post this to see how creative people could be with a Whateley theme.

    And it's too late and I'm too tired and sore (shoulder AND back), and I did a few in the other thread, so I'm going to let someone else start the chaos.

  • I decided to elaborate on some of the titles I came up with last night.


    "Oh Hey, We're In Danger" -- Nikki Version

    Oh hey, we're in danger; no big surprise here.
    Our little vacation is ruined by fear.
    The Syndicate base blows up behind us.
    Our little vacation has caused such a fuss.

    Our teachers are glaring; detention awaits;
    this little vacation has put us in straits.
    I miss thee, Vacation, you're making me cry.
    We get into trouble whenever we try

    to have thee, Vacation; you're not in our fate;
    denied thee forever, our problems won't wait.
    I have magic powers and a Jade or two,
    but that's not sufficient to bring us to you.


    "Oh Hey, We're In Danger" -- Syndicate Version

    Oh hey, we're in danger, we're facing a myth:
    a Vampire Princess killed those we worked with!
    The cams in the ceiling looked down as they died;
    the Vampire Princess raised those that she spied.

    The sirens are sounding, our dead team now walks,
    but Vampire Princess, no guilt as she talks.
    I loath thee, Vampire; put down my dead friend,
    and go back to Whateley; I've mourning to tend.

    We fear thee, Vampire; I ask thee to go
    far from me forever, and spare me, my foe.
    Free all our dead teammates from your evil grip,
    while I flee from here at a blistering clip.


    "Deck The Halls Like Diabolik"

    Deck the halls like Diabolik,
    (Fa la la la la, la la la la)
    Tis the season villains frolic
    (Fa la la la la, la la la la)

    Don we now our dark bandanas
    (Fa la la, la la la, la la la)
    Roll the loaded Yuletide Santas
    (Fa la la la la, la la la la)

    See the blazing town's disquiet
    (Fa la la la la, la la la la)
    Strike a cop and join the riot
    (Fa la la la la, la la la la)

    Follow my vindictive pleasure
    (Fa la la, la la la, la la la)
    While I fill my bags with treasure
    (Fa la la la la, la la la la)

    Fast away; the heroes join us
    (Fa la la la la, la la la la)
    "Foiled again," our mocking chorus
    (Fa la la la la, la la la la)

    We leave quickly, all together
    (Fa la la, la la la, la la la)
    Heedless of their loud displeasure
    (Fa la la la la, la la la la)


    "Violent Night"

    Violent night, painful night,
    all is blood, all is fright.
    Come young mutant, powerful child.
    Manifest now, untrained and wild.
    Disturb all of the peace,
    Disturb all of the peace.

    Violent night, painful night,
    police quake at the sight.
    KOP frames drop from afar,
    Militant hosts shout "Surrender now!"
    A new mutant is born,
    A new mutant is born!

    Violent night, painful night,
    misfortune, deadly light.
    Radiant beams from his fearful eyes
    flick left and right; everyone dies.
    Call the MCO now,
    Call the MCO now.

    Violent night, painful night,
    BFG, lend thy might;
    with the flashes let us scream,
    "Surrender now to our team!"
    A new mutant is born,
    A new mutant is born!


    "Carson Was Run Over By A Bison"

    Carson was run over by a bison
    Walking home from Schuster Christmas Eve
    You can say there's no such thing as karma
    But as for me and Beltane, we believe

    She had been too harsh on us students
    And we begged her to chill out
    But then she gave us all detention
    And she said her rules were not for us to flout

    Franklin found her late that evening
    On her back out in the Quad
    She was feeling pretty woozy
    And insinuating loudly she'd been trod

    (chorus)

    Now we're all so proud of Kayda
    She's been taking this so well
    See her in there cursing at us
    Throwing slurs and making threats from in her cell

    It's not Christmas with detention
    All us students are taking flack
    But we smile as we remember
    That when Carson did us wrong, we got her back!

    (chorus)

    Now, I am a manifester
    Beltane manifests things too
    And a big white shaggy bison
    That would just have fit the bill, we both can do

    I've warned all my fellow pranksters
    Better watch out for yourselves
    They should never give a bison
    To a girl who rages out and sides with elves

    (chorus)

    I am the kernel that pops in the night. I am the pain that keeps your dentist employed.

  • Given the setting of Whateley, lyricists may find the reworkings of popular carols by the HP Lovecraft Historical Society (A Very Scary Solstice and An Even Scarier Solstice) suitable for adaptation...

    Meanwhile:

    We three witches of Whateley we are,
    Our essence search will take us afar...

    And simultaneously:

    We three boys of Twain Cottage are... || We three furies of Faction 3 are...

    As the right side of the brain controls the left side of the body, then only left-handers are in their right mind!

  • "Up On The House Top (Eldritch Stands)"

    Up on the housetop Eldritch stands
    With a bunch of guns in hand
    Down through the chimney with lots of noise
    All for the baddies' Christmas joy

    Ratta-tat-tat, what was that?
    Ratta-tat-tat, what was that?
    Up on the housetop, click click click
    Down through the chimney with old Eldritch

    First come the henchmen in the hall
    Oh, dear Caitlin, make them fall
    Give them a taste of your AEGIS load
    And send their spirits down the road

    Ratta-tat-tat, what was that?
    Ratta-tat-tat, what was that?
    Up on the housetop, click click click
    Down through the chimney with old Eldritch

    Next comes the leader, a PK brick
    Oh, he is such a glorious prick
    Here is a rocket and lots of HEAT
    What's left of his corpse lands in the street

    Ratta-tat-tat, what was that?
    Ratta-tat-tat, what was that?
    Up on the housetop, click click click
    Down through the chimney with old Eldritch

    I am the kernel that pops in the night. I am the pain that keeps your dentist employed.

  • Because after so many years of my friend introducing me to this Weird All classic...

    "The Night Bardue Went Crazy"

    Down in the workshop all the devisors were makin' toys
    For the good heroine girls and the paying villain boys
    When Security busted in, nearly scared 'em half to death
    Had a rifle in his hands and cheap whiskey on his breath
    From his beard to his boots he was covered with ammo
    Like a big fat drunk disgruntled black thick Rambo
    And he smiled as he said with a twinkle in his eye,
    "The Eldritch came to all - now you're all gonna die!"

    The night Bardue went crazy
    The night Gunny went insane
    Realized he'd been gettin' a raw deal
    Something finally must have snapped in his brain

    Well, the workshop is gone now, he decided to bomb it
    Everywhere you'll find pieces of tentacles and gadgets
    And he tied up the builders and he held the Drows hostage
    And he ground up poor Mr Prickles into bio sausage
    He got Jinn and Jann with an old German Luger
    And he slashed up Hekate just like Freddy Krueger
    And he picked up a flamethrower and he barbequed Bloodwolf
    And he took a big bite and said, "It tastes just like chicken!"

    The night Bardue went crazy
    The night Mad Gunny went nuts
    Now you can't hardly walk around the North Tunnel
    Without steppin' in Class X guts

    There's the National Guard and the F.B.I.
    There's a van from Huminity First
    And MCO copters circlin' 'round in the sky
    And the bullets are flyin', the body count's risin'
    And everyone's dyin' to know, oh Bardue, why?
    My my my my my my
    You used to be such a jolly guy

    Yes, Whateley, now Bardue's doin' time
    In an ARC prison for his infamous crime
    Hey, little friend, now don't you cry no more tears
    He'll be out with good behavior in 700 more years
    But now Caithlin's in therapy and the Don's still nervous
    And the Jades all got jobs working for the postal service
    And they say Mrs. Ayla, she's on the phone every night
    With her lawyer negotiating the movie rights

    They're talkin' bout - the night Bardue went crazy
    The night Sergeant Oscar flipped
    Broke his back for some milk and cookies
    Sounds to me like he was tired of gettin' gypped

    Wo, the night Bardue went crazy
    The night Gunny went insane
    Realized he's gettin' a raw deal
    Something finally must have snapped in his brain
    Wo, something finally must have snapped in his brain
    Tell ya, something finally must have snapped... in his brain

  • No mention of "Scarlet Ribbons"? You don't even have to modify it...

    I peeped in to say “Goodnight,”
    and then I heard my child in prayer:
    “And for me, some scarlet ribbons,
    scarlet ribbons for my hair.”

    All the stores were closed and shuttered;
    All the streets were dark and bare.
    In our town, no scarlet ribbons,
    not one ribbon for her hair.

    Through the night my heart was aching
    And just before the dawn was breaking
    I peeked in and on her bed
    In gay profusion lying there
    Lovely ribbons, scarlet ribbons
    Scarlet ribbons for her hair

    If I live to be two hundred,
    I will never know from where
    came those lovely scarlet ribbons,
    scarlet ribbons for her hair.



    Seriously, I could see Ribbon pulling that off...

  • For Poe, maybe?
    Jingle ball rock!
    For security
    Silent night... But set to something very sinister!
    For the Admiral
    Hauling for home... Okay it isn't Christmas, but it is nautical...
    For Hartford
    Redolph the rude nosed reigndear
    For all the speedsters
    Dashing through the snow... Double speed at least!
    For Ayla
    I won't be home for Christmas...
    For Tenyo
    The ghost of Christmas past...

  • Silent Night, Innsmouth Night!
    All is calm, the tide is high
    Round yon daughters of Mother Hydra
    Dagon's infants in dark cathedra
    Dream of undying sleep
    Dream in unholy deep

    Silent night, Dunwich night!
    Townsmen quake, at the sight
    Whippoorwills arrive from afar
    Unwitting prey chant Ia! Ia!
    Wilbur of Whateley is born!
    Twin to Yog-Sothoth spawn!

    Silent night, Arkham night!
    Witches curse, legends blight
    Mi-Go breeding in outer space
    Whisperers haunting this place
    Fungal lords of Yuggoth
    Hail our lords from Yuggoth


    I'm surprised no one's come up with/reposted "Sacrificing Grandma To The Old Ones"
