Coultonfilk, or Re Your Booze
I've been sitting on this one for a day or two.

I came up with the central line of this one, appropriately enough, during a run to a VABC (Virginia Alcoholic Beverage Control) store during MarsCon, but the scene I saw was one from my college days (all of last year)...

Imagine you and your roommates are putting together a small party. Nothing big or elaborate: a few friends, some food, drinks, music, a good time had by all. Then, a knock comes on the door, and there stand fifty frat boys with pleading looks...

As with my other filks, this one will eventually be recorded. But this time I'm going to wait until I have a novox recording of the music--a friend is providing that, and once he does, I'll record this...

"Re Your Booze"
by Will "scifantasy" Frank
ttto: "Re Your Brains" by Jonathan Coulton

Heya dude, it's me, from Iota Kappa Pi
Guess you heard what happened yesterday
Everything is cool except the frat is on probation now
And they took all our stuff away
I couldn't help but notice all the vodka, beer, and gin
Instead of going out tonight, you've brought the party in
And I hope there's room for more
Or else you can hit the store later

Chorus:
ALL WE WANT TO DO IS DRINK YOUR BOOZE
Dude be a friend here, I mean you've got all that stuff to drink
ALL WE WANT TO DO IS DRINK YOUR BOOZE
Don't be a jackass dude, lemme tell you what I think
If you open up the door
We'll all come inside and drink your booze

I don't wanna bug you dude, but is all that stuff for you?
You're not exactly BMOC.
Sure you've got your couple friends, but if you want to party hard and long
Just call the guys from IKP.
We can make your party rock the dorm down to the ground
You'll be known as the best host for miles all around
There'll be chicks and babes galore
All begging you for more, really!

CHORUS

It's really easy dude, to make your party great
I sure would like to help you boost your reputation
I've known you three years, dude, and never seen you date...you never
date...

Pregame's almost over, dude, maybe we could start the show
Let's get a table and we'll play Beer Pong
Meanwhile all my brothers will start calling every girl that they can name
And don't forget to grab a bong
I know exams begin next week, but it's good to see you know
That all the fun of college doesn't have to die also
So let's rock this party down
And then go and paint the town later!

CHORUS
