I'll Hold Your Gold (parody of A Whole New World from Aladdin)

[Drassil]

...(yes, 'filk'...according to Wikipedia, that's the proper name for these kind of things. A 'songfic' is when you write a piece of fiction based around a song). Look out for another Christmas themed filk from us very soon.

I find the Wikipedia entries on 'songfiction' and 'filk' to be ambiguous. It seems I'm wrong to have described my creations as songfics, but I dislike the word filk. Perhaps a neutral term such as 'song parody' is a fair compromise.

...we still haven't escaped Disney yet! I'm also planning "A VR world" from "A whole new world" in Aladdin.

I'm about to parody that too...

Official audio

Julius Scaramonger sees a dungeoneer with a bar of gold, and bursts into song:

I can see you have gold

Shining shimmering splendid

Tell me, dungeoneer, when did

You last let your heart decide?

If you open your eyes

Even under that helmet

All your hopes will be well-met

As I trust I've now implied

I'll hold your gold

And sell fantastic things to you

Your friends might tell you no

Or where to go

Or say I'm only scheming

I'll hold your gold

A dazzling deal you never knew

But here in Wolfenden

With fiends and men

I know I want

To hold that gold for you

Unbelievable stock

Indescribable discounts

Such a range you might miscount

As you're choosing what to buy

I'll hold your gold

(Don't you dare choose Ah Wok)

A hundred thousand things on sale

(The more carats the better)

Here on my market stall

I sell it all

But kitchen sinks, cigars, or Holy Grails

I'll hold your gold

(It's the best type of rock)

And help you on to Level Two

(You won't be a regretter)

Then you'll reach Level Three

All thanks to me

So let me take that bar of gold off you

I'll hold your gold

(A whole new world)

That's what I'll do

(That's what you'll do)

A thrilling deal

(Can this be real?)

For me and me
