This is a songfic I made for my story Stone Cold Revenge. Telling of how the new characters died. Based on the song "Remains of the Day" from Corpse Bride. I almost forgot that I had wrote it and I felt I might as well post it. Reviews make me do the happy dance! :3
"Come one, come all!" the skeleton with a bowler hat and one eye sang out to the crowd, "Share your stories, everyone's done it, everyone dies." The gypsy, the jester, and the goblin just happened to be passing by when they heard the announcement. Even though they where just passing through the three kids thought it would be fun. They stepped up and the crowd started singing the harmony.
Crowd- Die, die, we all pass away,
but don't give a frown 'cause it's really ok.
You might try and hide, and you might try and pray,
but we all end up the remains of the day
Crowd- Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah! Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
Gypsy- It was Halloween night, I was doing just fine
when I saw that pretty moon shine
My mom had her back turned, I slipped away
on to that old bridge that shook and swayed.
Lookin' at the moon, lost in its trance,
suddenly found myself starting to dance.
The moon a spotlight, the bridge a stage,
I put on my very greatest and last ballet
One plank snapped and before I could scream
I found myself lying at the bottom of the stream.
Crowd- Die, die, we all pass away,
but don't give a frown 'cause it's really ok.
You might try and hide, and you might try and pray,
but we all end up the remains of the day
Crowd- Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah! Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
Jester- It was Halloween night, I was doing just fine
enjoying the Halloween party of mine.
Doing a few tricks on my trampoline,
showing my friends a few they've never seen.
The more I jumped, the higher I flew,
felt like I could touch that beautiful moon.
One last trick, one last time,
that was one last chance for to me to shine.
Up I went, then down I came,
if the springs hadn't snapped I'd be alive today!
Crowd- Die, die, we all pass away,
but don't give a frown 'cause it's really ok.
You might try and hide, and you might try and pray,
but we all end up the remains of the day
Crowd- Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah! Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
Demon- It was Halloween night, I was doing just fine
trick-or treating with a best friend of mine.
Looking for laughs like we always did,
having fun together, just me and him.
The streets where empty, we where out of time,
the moon above was our only light.
What happened next, I really can't say,
but the knife in my back took my life away.
Don't know who did it, I never did see,
did who did it get my friend or did my friend get me?
Crowd- Die, die, we all pass away,
but don't give a frown 'cause it's really ok.
You might try and hide, and you might try and pray,
but we all end up the remains of the daaaaaaaaaaaaaay!
Review please!
