Did You Hear What I Wrote?
To the tune of Do You Hear What I Hear?
Said the Tome Knight to the filking fiend
Did you see what I wrote?
During Game of Tomes, filking fiend
Did you see what I wrote?
A book, a book, full of words and stuff
With a plot that might even work
With a plot that might even work
Said the filking fiend to their streamer friend
Did you hear what I wrote?
On my SoundCloud here, streamer friend
Did you hear what I wrote?
A song, a song, and it’s kind of great
It’s a filk about Game of Tomes
It’s a filk about Game of Tomes
Said the streamer friend to the filking fiend
“Did you want to sing it?
On my stream today, filking friend
Did you want to sing it?”
“I might, I might,” said the filking fiend
And so they put up a stream
And so they put up a stream
Said the streamer to the writers in the chat
“Listen to this song here!
It’s a lot of fun, scribes in the chat!
Listen to this song here!
And so, and so, together they both sang
And the filking plague, it began
And the filking plague, it began
Don’t Write in the Iron Tome!
To the tune of It Came Upon a Midnight Clear
It came upon a G O T year
But after the Word War was done
With Tome Knights resting from our mad fight
The peace just barely begun
When one mad House Leader rose and said
“Like, hey, should we have some fun
And write some filks in the Iron Tome?
The bun queen will surely be stunned!”
“But Master of Filk, please listen to me,”
James of the Owsla said
“We do not know what the Tome can do
What if we raise the undead??”
His wise words gave even Eli pause
To think of what their words can do
For word smiths writing in the Iron Tome
Know not what their words may brew
“Like, maybe we should be cautious here,”
reluctantly Eli agreed
“Here’s some paper I found on the floor,
And a pen for our words to feed.”
And so they sat and they filked with joy
A song that they sang out clear
And all the Tome Knights gathered ‘round
To join in their winter cheer
Regard this tale with caution, Knights
And always keep paper around
A keyboard, a pencil, a typewriter too
Whatever to write can be found
The Tome is ancient and filled with power
That none of us quite comprehend
If we write in it the wrong kinds of words
Who knows where the tale may end?
Frith Rest Ye Merry Rabbitfolk
To the tune of God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen
Frith rest ye merry rabbitfolk
Let nothing you dismay
Remember El-ahrairah’s tricks
Upon this Tomesmas Day
For he helps us to stay alive
When we go to silflay
Oh tidings of writing and joy
Writing and joy
Oh tidings of writing and joy
From Frith our Heavenly Father
A blessed and cursed Tome came;
And unto literomancers
Brought tidings of the same,
For words have pow’r and magic too
And thus began the Game.
O tidings of writing and joy,
Writing and joy
O tidings of writing and joy
The Tome Knights at these tidings
Rejoiced much in mind,
And went into the world to write
In tempest, storm and wind,
And to libraries straightway
All books they came to find.
O tidings of writing and joy,
Writing and joy
O tidings of writing and joy
But when to Game of Tomes they came,
To seek the Iron Tome,
They found the Night Monarch instead,
And Undead in their homes;
And El-ahrairah said to us,
“Write for the Carrot Throne.”
O tidings of writing and joy,
Writing and joy
O tidings of writing and joy
Now to Lord Frith sing praises,
All you within this place,
With creativity and love
Each other now embrace;
This holy tide of Tomesmas
All other doth efface.
O tidings of writing and joy,
Writing and joy
O tidings of writing and joy.
GOT Rest Ye Scary Undead Horde
To the tune of God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen
GOT rest ye scary Undead Horde
Let all things you dismay
Remember that the Tome Battle
Was fought all night and day
To save the living from us all
When houses fell away
Oh tidings of word counts and deaths
Word counts and deaths
Oh tidings of word counts and deaths
In warrens, jungles, oceans
Down written was each word
And given to Satrium’s bot
To count against the horde
And the Mother of Bunnies'
Vast army drew their swords
Oh tidings of word counts and deaths
Word counts and deaths
Oh tidings of word counts and deaths
I Saw Three Ships (Tomesmas Day)
To the tune of I Saw Three Ships
I saw three ships come sailing in
On Tomesmas day, on Tomesmas day,
I saw three ships come sailing in
On Tomesmas day in the morning.
And what was on those ships, all three
On Tomesmas day, on Tomesmas day,
And what was on those ships, all three
On Tomesmas day in the morning ?
All the angler fish we'll free
On Tomesmas day, on Tomesmas day,
All the angler fish we'll free
On Tomesmas day in the morning.
Thus all the lights on earth shall shine
On Tomesmas day, on Tomesmas day,
Thus all the lights on earth shall shine
On Tomesmas day in the morning.
And all the krakens write again
On Tomesmas day, on Tomesmas day,
And all the krakens write again
On Tomesmas day in the morning.
So let us all rejoice and write
On Tomesmas day thru Christmas day,
So let us all rejoice and write
On Tomesmas day in the morning.
On Tomesmas day in the morning.
It's the Writing Vigil
To the tune of Jingle Bell Rock
Writing words, typing words, scribing words fly
Writing words filk and writing words ilk
Laughing and crafting up stories a tonne
The writing vigil has begun
Writing words, typing words, scribing words fly
Writing word spells and writing word tells
Flying and trying to be the bests bats there are
In the Cavern's great care
It's the night time, that's the write time
To literomancy
It's a spell time, writing well time
To craft stories in jubilee
Lighting the incense, embracing the shadows
Writing below the moon
Inspiration comes from the living foreshadows
That's the writing vigil
It's the night time, that's the write time
To literomancy
It's a spell time, writing well time
To craft stories in jubilee
Lighting the incense, embracing the shadows
Writing below the moon
Inspiration comes from the living foreshadows
That's the writing vigil
That's the writing vigil
Jungle Bells
To the tune of Jingle Bells
Dashing through the ferns
On a custom motor bike
Raptor Squad Patrol
Ride to light the night!
Bells on dino tails
Head-lights make it bright
Oh what fun it is to ride and sing
A dino song tonight!
Oh, Jungle Bells, Dino Spells
Evolve is the way!
Claw some words and stomp the doubt
In the Sauropoda way! Hey!
Jungle Bells, Dino Spells
Evolve is the way!
Claw some words and stomp the doubt
In the Sauropoda way!
A day or two ago
The living were at stake.
Zombies came for us
With words we met our fate
Literomancers fought,
Words did save the day!
And now its time to ride and sing
A dino song today
Oh, Jungle Bells, Dino Spells,
Evolve is the way!
Claw some words and stomp the doubt
In the Sauropoda way! Hey!
Jungle Bells, Dino Spells
Evolve is the way!
Claw some words and stomp the doubt
In the Sauropoda way!
Now the ground is white
Come celebrate the Yule
Santa come on by
We will dance a duel
There's cookies iced with words
Happy Holidays!
Hop on Rudolph to ride and sing
A dino song today
Oh, Jungle Bells, Dino Spells
Evolve is the way!
Claw some words and stomp the doubt
In the Sauropoda way! Hey!
Jungle Bells, Dino Spells
Evolve is the way!
Claw some words and stomp the doubt
In the Sauropoda way!

Santa the Honey Badger
To the tune of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer
Santa the Honey Badger
Does not give a single care
So if you dare disturb him
You should probably beware
All of the other Santas
Tried to make him care at all
They always got down on him
So he threw them through a wall!
But every single Tomesmas Eve
He brings words and toys
To the sleeping Meles kids
If they were good girls and boys
And so the Meles love him
And they keep out his way
Santa the honey Badger
Is the Tomesmas Meles way!
Three GoT Kings
Loosely to the tune of We Three Kings
We three kings of Game of Tomes are
One is flame
To keep us warm
One is cat
To keep us snuggled as we wri-ite
The rest of us are Rabbits
To spread across the land
That is right, we are House Lapin.
Tome Knights Sprinting by an Open Fire
To the tune of "Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire"
Tome Knights sprinting by an open fire
Houses warming up their toes
New filked carols being sung to inspire
New drabbles, poetry, and prose
Everybody knows World Ember is for all the lore
It helps to keep us writing strong
New Tome Knights with their worlds to explore
Will write articles and song
We know that Sable-rah, she has the Tome
She’s made the Warren into a welcoming home
And the undead horde is now alive
So we know that we’re likely to survive
And so, I’m offering this new-turned phrase
To Tome Knights, literomancers, too
Although we just won an epic kind of war
I cannot wait to write with you
