Subject: Filk: We've Had Some Fun and other Carpenter Hits Date: Fri, 15 Nov 2002 08:29:42 -0500 From: Patty Costantino To: FKFIC-L@LISTS.PSU.EDU Well, you were probably thinking you got rid of me and my silly filks. Not!!! Here are some more to brighten or make your day miserable, depending on how you look at it. (g) Disclaimers: The FK characters and show, and the Carpenters' songs do not belong to me. I'm just borrowing them. Thanks to Phylis for beta reading. Permission granted to archive at FTP, FKFanfic2 sites.

Nichols/Carpenters tune, We've Only Just Begun, was a perfect Ufish song as LaCroix daydreams about him and Nick’s *relationship.* I guarantee this ultimate wedding song will never be the same in your mind once you've read this version. (g) A dedication to Sunny LaCountess as her story, Come Undone, inspired me to write this filk. ****************************** We’ve only just begun… To sha…re… Black sheets… and pillows… A blood kiss for fun From…sire to… insolent …son… Let's have some fun… Before the rising… moon… We fl…y… So many… necks to choose… We start out drinking and drain them… too… soon… And yes…we’ve had some fun… (Shake tambourine) Sharing our blood which is good for us Violent couplings along the way… Savage whippings…just the two of us Frolicking together… day to day… Together… And when the evening comes… We smi…le… So many playful slaps… ahead… And sitting in one another’s laps… in… bed … And yes…we’ve had some fun… (Shake tambourine) Sharing our blood which is sweet to us Delicious romps in the hay… Whips and chains… for the two of us Playing together… day to day… Together… Together… And when the evening comes… We smi…le… So many fun-filled days… ahead… And frisky play in a velvet-covered… bed… And yes…we’ve had some fun… **************************************** Sunny Days and Everyday By Patty Costantino Nov 2002 ************************************* Another Paul Williams/ R. Nichols/ Carpenter’s song, Rainy Days and Mondays, reflects Nick's sullen mood in Dark Knight after he kissed and then “almost killed” Alyce Hunter, the museum curator. ************************************** (Play harmonica) Gulping down some cow and feeling… blue… Pop in that Bela Lugosi tape To deepen my depressed state Lying… around… Blood tears fallin’ on the ground… Sunny Days and everyday… always get… me… down… In 800 years, you’d think I’d get a… klew… Love will never come along… Feeling like the ape King Kong… Mopin’… around… Lyin’ here, green bottles abound… Sunny Days and everyday always… get me… down… Funny… but it seems I always sit in the dark and stew… Sad I can’t have one mortal…too… near… Funny…but it seems there’s only one thing… to do… Run and grab some of that…revolting… steer… Background vocals: (Guzzling… it… like… beer) Nat, what I like is to wallow, binge and …drown… I don’t want to talk it out… Close the blinds and get out… Mopin’… around… Let me lie here and frown… Sunny Days and everyday always get… me… down… (Saxophone solo) Funny… but it seems there’s only one thing… to do… Background vocals: (Only one thing to do…) Run and grab some of that… revolting… steer… Nat… what I like is to wallow, binge… and… drown… Don’t want to talk it out… Close the blinds and get out… Lying …around… Let me lie here and frown … Sunny Days and everyday *always* get… me… down… Mopin’ around… Blood tears fallin’ on the ground… Sunny Days and any day *al…ways*… *get*… me… down… ************************************** Too Close to Me By Patty Costantino Nov 2002 ****************************** I couldn't end without a N&Npack song. This Hal David/Burt Bacharach/Carpenter’s song, Close To You, seemed to go well with the flashback scene in Only the Lonely when Nick warns Natalie not to get too close to him. ************************************** Why did she… suddenly... draw near… Even though… I instilled some fear… Listen… to… me… Don’t get… to be… Too close to… me… Why did she… not say… goodbye… Even though… the whammy didn't fly… Take it… from… me… Don’t get to be… Too close… to me … On the next night that we met Your offer, I couldn’t forget But it’s like a game of… Russian… Roulette… I’m afraid that I might forget And you’ll wind up like Chicken… Croquette… That is why… I hesitate to accept… And I do… begin to fret … Take it from me… Don’t get to be… Too close… to me… (Trumpet solo) I’m a creature fallen from grace Angels look at me in disgrace Though I’m a discredit to my monstrous race… I could destroy your pretty face… So we won’t be getting to first… base! (Side comment: Or second, or third, or ... well you get the idea.) That is why… I begin to pace… Better get… some garlic mace… Listen to me… Don’t get to be… Too close… to… me Take it from me… Don’t get to be… Too close… to… me… Whyyyy… Too close… to you… Whyyyy… Might… kill you… Haaaaa… Will make… me blue… Whyyyy… Might… hurt you… ************************************** Finis Feedback is appreciated at psmoot43@hotmail.com I always love to hear from you, the reader; it brightens my day! _________________________________________________________________ The new MSN 8: advanced junk mail protection and 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail
