Do You Hear the Writers Sing?

"Do You Hear the Writers Sing"
Original Song : "Do You Hear the People Sing" From Les Miserables
Written By : Tempest Kwake

PRELUDE
Tempest
Do you hear the writers sing
Or just the scritching of our pens?
We are all writing on our novels
So the zombies will not win

Sable & Tempest:
If you are writing words
Here to protect your House’s homes
There is a stream about to start
For the Game of Tomes

Tempest
Will you join in our word war?
Who will be strong and write with me?
Beyond the Iron Tome
Are there some words you want to see?

Sable & Tempest
Then join in the fight
As we sit here and write to be free!

Do you hear the writers sing
Or just the scritching of our pens?
We are all writing on our novels
So the zombies will not win
If you are writing words
Here to protect your House’s homes
There is a stream about to start
For the Game of Tomes

COVER
Coffee
Do you hear the writers sing
Or just the scritching of our pens?
We are all writing on our novels
So the zombies will not win

Amanda & Coffee
If you are writing words
Here to protect your House’s homes
There is a stream about to start
For the Game of Tomes

Siobhan
Will you join in our word war?
Who will be strong and write with me?

Sable
Beyond the Iron Tome
Are there some words you want to see?

Siobhan & Sable
Then join in the fight
As we sit here and write to be free!

Amanda, Tempest, Sable, Siobhan
Do you hear the writers sing
Or just the scritching of our pens?
We are all writing on our novels
So the zombies will not win
If you are writing words
Here to protect your House’s homes
There is a stream about to start
For the Game of Tomes

Tempest
Will you write all you can write
So that your House may yet outlast?

Kahuna
Some will fall and some will live
Will you survive the whole broadcast?

All
The words of the living
Will beat the undead at the last!

AuthorGoddess
Ha! You hope!

All
Do you hear the writers sing
Or just the scritching of our pens?
We are all writing on our novels
So the zombies will not win
[beat] If you are writing words
Here to protect your House’s homes
There is a stream about to start
For the Game of Tomes

REPRISE
Kahuna, Sable & Siobhan
Do you hear the writers sing?
Lost in the typing day and night
It is the music of a people
Who are trying hard to write
For we fear the Undead Horde
Theirs are the words that never die
But soon the writer’s block will end
And our words will rise

We will write again in peacetime
When we beat the undead back
We will showcase our new writing
We will think of what it lacks

The Tome will be woken
Our keyboards will go clicky-clack!

Will you join in our word war?
Who will be strong and write with me?
Someday beyond the Iron Tome
Are there some words you want to see?
Do you hear the Writers Sing?
Say are you writing in your homes?
It is the future that we write
For the Game of Tomes!

Will you join in our word war?
Who will be strong and write with me?
Someday beyond the Iron Tome
Are there some words you want to see?
Do you hear the writers sing?
Say, are you writing in your homes?
It is the future that we write
For the Game of Tomes!
