Night Mare's Party

(To the tune of.)

NIGHT MARE'S PARTY

I'm armored up with nowhere to go
Stars are in the sky, moon on the horizon
I'm armored up with nowhere to go
Stars are in the sky, moon on the horizon

Waiting for my dear Celestia to concede
Planning out a party Equestria now needs
Waiting for my dear Celestia to concede
Planning out a party Equestria now needs

(CHORUS)
I embraced the darkness
Flowing in my veins
I was wronged, and now you all shall feel my pain
It's a Night Mare's party
Let them scream and pray
Remember well the sunlight, for this will be your last day
For this will have been the world's last day

Don't beg for mercy, turn and flee (turn and flee)

I'm armored up with nowhere to go
Moon on the horizon … (moon on the horizon …)
Waiting for my dear Celestia to concede
Moon on the horizon … (moon on the horizon …)

Start again in the Everfree
One face on the bits in my monarchy
Hear my sister coming to the door
Says she's found a way to stop the war

(CHORUS)

Don't beg for mercy, turn and flee
No light can stop the fear you cannot see
Don't beg for mercy, turn and flee
No light can stop the fear you caaaaaan't see

Turn and flee …

(REPEAT CHORUS AND BRIDGE, OUT)

Nice song parody, I should add. I am however trying to think of an alternative for that "secede", as it seems to violate some of that word's shades of meaning.

Augh, you know, my brain was probably thinking "resign" and some wires got crossed. I'll gnaw on it later tonight when I'm back at a computer.

> concede

It took me almost as long to fix that single word as it did to write the lyrics.

Yeah, I know how it goes.

Oooh, Oingo-tastic!

Hmm. What's next, "I Hate Little Fillies", telling the frustrated story of somepone having to deal with the CMCs?

Don't tempt me! I already have enough on my plate …

(Besides which, "Reptiles and Samurai" is begging for a Spike song first.)
