Found in a folder on Simon Tam's computer, along with other works titled "Pirates of Persephone" and "Browncoats of the Guard", and the note "abject apologies to Messrs. Gilbert and Sullivan"

HMS Serenity
Act 2 Scene 3
The cargo hold of Serenity, Crew on deck, Mal on central stair landing


MAL:
I am the Captain of Serenity;

CREW:
And a shiny captain, too!

MAL:
You're a very strange bunch,
And I’ve got me a hunch,
I command a crazy crew,

CREW:
We're a very strange bunch,
And he’s right in his hunch,
He commands a crazy crew.

MAL:
Though a soldier by trade,
Ship’s Captain I was made,
With a stern look on my face;
I am never known to fear
At the Reavers coming near,
And I'm never, never sick in space!

CREW:
What, never?

MAL:
No, never!

CREW:
What, never?

MAL:
Hardly ever!

CREW:
He's hardly ever sick in space!
Then give three cheers, and a qu ni de,
For the hardy Captain of Serenity!
Then give three cheers, and a qu ni de,
For the hardy Captain of Serenity!

MAL:
I do my best to not cuss out my Crew—

CREW:
And with that we're quite content.

MAL:
You're exceedingly evasive,
And to say that you’re abrasive
Would be quite a compliment.

CREW.
We're exceedingly evasive,
And to claim that we’re abrasive
Would be quite the compliment.

MAL:
Bad language or abuse,
I often have to use,
Whatever the emergency;
Though "Chur ni duh" I may
Occasionally say,
I never use a big, big G—

CREW:
What, never?

MAL:
No, never!

CREW:
What, never?

MAL:
Hardly ever!

CREW:
Hardly ever swears a big, big G--
Then give three cheers, and a qu ni de,
For the vulgar Captain of Serenity!
Then give three cheers, and a qu ni de,
For the vulgar Captain of Serenity!

[After song exeunt Crew but CAPTAIN]

Brilliant Geezer!

----------------

By the way, clever idea for a thread Higgins!

--------------------------------

My ideas:

Mal: 'Lonely No More' Rob Thomas
or 'Superman's Song' Crash Test Dummies

Inara: (for Mal) "Even When I'm Sleeping' Leonardo's Bride or 'When Will You Fall For Me?' Vika & Linda

Zoe: 'Stand My Ground' Within Temptation

Wash: Fly Like An Eagle' Steve Miller Band

Jayne: 'Black Betty' Spiderbait

Simon:(for River) 'Look After You' The Fray

River: 'Unwell' Rob Thomas

Kaylee: 'Shiny Happy People' REM

Book: '(What's So Funny About) Peace, Love & Understanding?' Nick Lowe



...plus one for all Browncoats: "We Can't Be Beaten' Rose Tattoo

For Kaylee in her less exuberant moments...

I Want A Little Sugar In My Bowl by Nina Simone

I want a little sugar
in my bowl
I want a little sweetness
down in my soul
I could stand some lovin'
Oh so bad
Feel so lonely and I feel so sad

I want a little steam
on my clothes
Maybe I could fix things up
so they'll go
Whatsa matter Daddy
Come on, save my soul
Drop a little sugar in my bowl
I ain't foolin'
Drop a little sugar in my bowl



For Inara and all the ways people project their various problems and world views onto her...

Mary by Patty Griffin

Mary you're covered in roses, you're covered in ashes
You're covered in rain
You're covered in babies, you're covered in slashes
You're covered in wilderness, you're covered in stains
You cast aside the sheet, you cast aside the shroud
Of another man, who served the world proud
You greet another son, you lose another one
On some sunny day and always stay, Mary



She's complex. Many things to many people.

Rough Hands- Alexisonfire (That's the one I've decided upon :P ) for Mal possibly implications to Inara. *Two people too damaged too much too late* I love this song...
