Most of you don't know this (hell, I don't think most of you know who I am), but I like to write songs as a hobby, almost exclusively comedy ones. But I was deeply touched by the temerity of the Browncoat fanbase after I saw 'Serenity' and decided to write this homage to all of us who kept 'er flying.

I don't have the best singing voice, so consider yourself warned.

Heeee.
Dude, that made me giggle. And also? GRRRRR. That thing's gonna be in my head all day now. Geeez. Joss is my master now...
And, yes, we all have our Jewel Staite fantasies.
I'd love to hear what the BDHs would think of this if they heard it.

Excellent!
Here are the lyrics in case anyone wants to sing along
I've got posters on the wall
From the film Serenity
I've got Nathan Fillion
And Summer Glau watching me
I've got the DVD boxed set
And I've got my Jewel Staite fantasies
And I've got a tee shirt coming through the mail
Says "You can't take the sky from me"
Cos I'm a Browncoat
And I'll never fade away
No I'm a Browncoat
I aim to misbehave
Yeah I'm a Browncoat
George Lucas let me down
I'm a Browncoat
Joss Whedon's my master now
I've got the movie ticket stubs
And I've got a hat that looks like Jayne's
I've got fanatical devotion
And an impossible war to wage
But that makes us mighty
We're the Browncoats
And we've got a series to save
We're the Browncoats
Yeah we aim to misbehave
Yeah we're the Browncoats
We're the only game in town
We're the Browncoats
and Joss Whedon's our master now
We're the Browncoats
Got a series to save
Yeah, we're the Browncoats
And we aim to misbehave
Yeah we're the Browncoats
We speak Chinese when we cuss
And you know, you can't take the sky from us
No, no, you can't take the sky from us

Bumping it myself to ask if there's a way to submit songs to the Blue Sun Room.
Nice job on the lyrics, brit, with one correction: it's "says you can't take the sky from me" on the t-shirt line. If anybody wants chords, I can give those too (it's capoed on the second fret, so you could go straight from it to Hero of Canton if you wanted. 
)

Great song. It has a certain poetry to it I think. 
Keep up the good work 5x5!!
