Skirmish: Weird pet (@atornberg)Liner Notes
#folk #scifi #filk
I had such a block on this one; it really broke me for a bit. Once I got my #mandolin out, though, I finally understood the song. A much belated entry for the 'weird pet' #skirmish.
Lyrics
My Little Friend
Jemma Kline
I found you in the light of Cygnus Nine,
Picked you up and brushed you off, said you were mine.
Drew some eyes, a tiny mouth, a little nose.
Now it’s into hyperspace we both will go!
My little friend,
I’ll keep you with me.
My little friend,
Who’s made of stone.
My little friend,
Come be my bestie.
My little friend,
I’ll take you home.
I’ll give you a tour of my ship,
Find a spot where you can sit throughout the trip.
We will watch the plasma glow, hear pulsars hum.
I’m so glad I’ve got a friend to join the fun!
My little friend,
I’ll keep you with me.
My little friend,
Who’s made of stone.
My little friend,
Come be my bestie.
My little friend,
I’ll take you home.
Now I’m waking from a dream.
Intruder near, my console sings,
And you’re not in the little hammock that I made.
Then I hear the docking port,
As your friends all come aboard,
And I must admit I’m getting quite afraid.
My little friend,
I’ll keep you with me.
My little friend,
Who’s made of stone.
My little friend,
Come be my bestie.
My little friend,
I’ll take you home.
