This is a little bit of fun that I recently found and had totally forgotten I’d filked. Enjoy!
Circe’s Island
(Sung to the tune of the Gilligan’s Island theme song)
- Just sit right back and you’ll hear a tale
- A tale of a fateful trip
- That started from this Trojan port
- Aboard this tiny ship.
- Our captain was a sailing man,
- A king both brave and true
- Our crew all set sail that day
- For a ten year tour…a ten year tour.
- The monsters started getting rough
- By Charybdis we were tossed
- If not for the plotting of our Captain-King,
- The ship it would be lost…the ship it would be lost.
- The ship set ground upon the shore
- Of this enchanted Isle…
- With the Sorceress…
- Our Captain-King…
- Misenus…with his pipes.
- The servants all…
- The sailors who were turned to pigs
- Here on Circe’s Island!
- So this is the tale of the curs’d sailors
- They’re here for a long, long time,
- To feast and drink in the banquet hall
- And fill their snouts with wine.
- The Sorceress and the Captain too
- Will do their very best
- To make the others comfortable
- In Circe’s strange love nest.
- So join us here each week my friends
- You’re sure to get a smile
- From a crew of Ithican castaways
- Here on Circe’s Island!
