Hmmm, “under me” “go down”. See the similarity. Although in the Silver Chair part of the theme was that the writing had been there for eons.
Maybe St. Charlie traveled in time to arrange a meteor shower on the dark side of the moon and then set a magnetic comet in motion so that it would spin the moon 180 for two minutes on this very night.
Unity’s use of the word “another” is… suggestive. Not sure if I prefer to know the details, or let it be one more Noodle Incident to throw on the pile.
A humor device that will *never* get old with UNITY: Describe a bizaar and weird occurance and then throw in the word “again”. I guarantee that with UNITY *I* will always find that funny.
Kroy, I just used that song last month. Hmmm … I could have have used The Beatles’ “Get Back”, or Petula Clark’s “Downtown … I just have to spin the mental roulette wheel and see what falls out.
Actually, yes. I noticed that I had used one song three times in the space of a couple months, so I started keeping a list of songs used. Every now and then, I look at the totals and say “Holy filking sonnet…
To the tune of the first third of “Downtown”, by Petula Clarke (It saddens me that Google’s display result for “downtown lyrics” is now the song by Macklemore):
When you’re in Boston and you feel a bit lost, then
You can always just… Go Down.
When finding St. Chuck, you find you’ve run out of luck,
Take the moon’s advice: Go Down.
Just listen to the moon, with its marred surface once so pretty,
Go down below the ground and you can find the madboys’ city.
Stop being lost.
The folks are much madder there.
Cut free Unity, and Tip, please fix your hair,
And then Go Down!
Into St. Charlie, just Go Down!
No finer place for sure. Go Down!
GODOT is waiting for you.
Now to rip her off it. The question is: which is more resistant: her stitches, or said historic monument? Because requiring Unity to drag a piece of a historic monument for the rest of the arc would be totally awesome!
Somewhere nearby a guy is worried that his girlfriend is losing interest. Against all hope, he asks the universe for a sign of what to do. A momentary glance out the window changes everything.
While we were standing around
Not being sure where to go
The moon told us “Go Down”
Clue Moon
Rather very unsubtle there
See it floating in orbit there
Does have a very dramatic flare
And Unity’s sewn to a national monument
This isn’t the first time I’m told
We’ll have to get her down, or she’ll demolish it
Payments on Mount Rushmore we still owe
Bad news: Pretty much everyone knows where they’re going. And as a government agency (peripherally) they’ll be held responsible somehow for cleaning up the moon.
Could this be a reference to a children’s book that I’ve actually read? (Ie; The Silver Chair.) Woo!

Well at least it doesn’t say “Cha-“
Or “ha” and a big bite.
I’m imagining Unity sew herself as Abraham Lincoln’s snot…

Unity generates enough noodle incidents to open her own pasta restaurant…

(TUNE: “Go Down, Moses”, traditional)
When Skin Horse came to Boston town,
(Go help Unity!)
St. Charlie said to “Come on down!”
(Go help Unity!)
[CHORUS]
Go down, Skin Horse!
Down where you ought to be!
To Sa-aint Char-lie …
But first, help Unity!
It’s night-time and the Moon will rise,
(Go help Unity!)
A subtle note, before your eyes!
(Go help Unity!)
[repeat CHORUS]
Now Sweetheart’s nose is out of joint …
(Go help Unity!)
If Unity could only point!
(Go help Unity!)
[repeat CHORUS]
That’s no moon.
Ed, I would have guessed you would have picked “Bad Moon On the Rise”.

I’ve wondered: do you keep written records of songs already used?
Actually, yes. I noticed that I had used one song three times in the space of a couple months, so I started keeping a list of songs used. Every now and then, I look at the totals and say “Holy filking sonnet…

Now to rip her off it. The question is: which is more resistant: her stitches, or said historic monument? Because requiring Unity to drag a piece of a historic monument for the rest of the arc would be totally awesome!
And totally easy to write!
Or, wait, not.

…pfffffffffff.
*snork*
You said a mouthful.
Brilliant!
They borrowed Chairface Chippendale’s laser?
Man, I was going to say that!
Although, I like the Silver Chair reference too.
Yay! Somebody else who remembers the Tick!
An object at rest — CANNOT BE STOPPED!
To the tune of “Blue Moon”

Not being sure where to go
The moon told us “Go Down”

See it floating in orbit there

Well done! [golf clap]
Thanks. Glad to have the approval of the resident Master of Filking.
Good news: they won’t get lost on the way there.
Bad news: Pretty much everyone knows where they’re going. And as a government agency (peripherally) they’ll be held responsible somehow for cleaning up the moon.
Maybe they have Chaos from “Life and Death” helping them. He likes to write on moons all the time
“Go Domn”? Nice thought, but Tip is more the type to *be* handcuffed.
