Red Wedding

From 2013. Not the first person to try this filk, nor the last. The last verse of the original fit too well so I left it basically unchanged.

Words: Joseph Abbott
Music: “White Wedding,” Billy Idol

Hey, older brother, where did you go?
Hey, older brother, look how well we sew…
Hey, older brother, where’s your bannerman?
Hey, older brother, where’s that wife you love?
Hey, older brother — CROSSBOW!

It’s a nice day for lives to end
It’s a nice day for a Red Wedding
It’s a nice day for lives to end…

Hey, older brother, where’s that wolf you’re with?
Hey, older brother, what’s your final wish?
Hey, older brother, crossbow (and so he spoke)
Hey, older brother, guess who sends regards?
Hey, older brother — CROSSBOW!

It’s a nice day for lives to end
It’s a nice day for a Red Wedding
It’s a nice day for lives to end

We took your home

Hey, little sister, where have you gone?
Hey, little sister, what you training on?
You’ve been away for so long (so long)
You’ve been away for so long (so long)
You’ve learned that blade for so long

For that nice day to get revenge (come on)
For the betrayed at the Red Wedding
You know someday you’ll get revenge

There is nothin’ fair in this world
There is nothin’ safe in this world
And there’s nothin’ sure in this world
And there’s nothin’ pure in this world
Look for something left in this world
Start again
Come on
Once you’ve put paid for the Red Wedding
That’s a nice day to start again.
It’s a nice day to start again.
It’s a nice day to start again
