Can we set it to 'The Hero of Canton (The Man They Call Jayne)' tune, with some wacky new lyrics?

Well, I believe the contest specifically asks people not to use that tune, if you feel like writing one based on 'The man they call Jayne' I'm sure others would love to hear it. At least I would! :)

Ah, yes. I'd overlooked that.
My bad.

I saw the title, but my filk was set to a different tune...

So, only "The Hero of Canton" as the original song?

Not, Teela. They specifically ask you not to use that tune.
