Haha, I love rewriting random songs. Some of the lines are kind of forced but it's just for fun so I'm not too worried. :P

NaNoWriMo's Coming to Town
[To the tune of Santa Claus is Coming to Town although not that exact version.]

You better watch out
You better outline
Better not pout
I’m telling you why
NaNoWriMo’s coming to town.

They’re making up plots
And checking out books
Gotta do research
It’s really required.
NaNoWriMo’s coming to town.

The weather is a-cooling,
Halloween is round the bend,
Zombies hang from ev’ry house
We’ll all be like them soon!

O! You better watch out
You better outline
Better not pout
I’m telling you why.
NaNoWriMo’s coming to town.

Hey Saint ^_^

This was funny and entertaining. I could just picture myself singing this at a school talent show after NaNoWriMo is over. My eyes would pinned open and my voice would be loud and dry. I'd be slouched over because of how long I sat in the chair writing and I'd be quite delirious because of all the writing and rewriting and planning and un-planning. Not a very good picture but this was fun to read and yet now that I think about it...spooky.

Favorite part:

I love you, Teague. :P I don't think anyone else would've posted a song about NaNoWriMo here 'cept you. Because deep isn't your style, right? Heh.

P.S. I really want to know how you pronounce NaNoWriMo... I've been saying 'nano-wree-mo' but I'm sure I'm wrong. But 'nano-wry-mo' sounds weird...

Just write -- the rest of life will follow.

Would love help on this.

The 2nd and 3rd verses don't rhyme.

Other than that, nice work. Amusing.

:lol:

Who cares that this doesn't rhyme and if you have a boring voice like I do, this can't really be sang along to?! This was downright amusing, especially the halloween bit... Eek i definitely would not want to end up like that....

Now this has me thinking what i am going to look like after nanowrimo, if not a zombie...

My hair will probably be overgrown like a lions mane
Ill probably be EVEN skinnier than now
ima probably forget how to talk... unless im typing
My fingers will probably develop a constant moving action

That reminded me of Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium. The woman is a pianist, and that happened to her.

Hahahaha, this is awesome. It doesn't rhyme but oh well. This is really funny and good.

This is my favorite part. This sent me in a laughing fit. ^_^

I love it, great job. ^_^

This part was awkward, but who cares. It's great.

Hahaha. This is brilliant. NaNo ended, and yes, I woke up Dec. 1 as a zombie. Gregor Sampsa style.

Ahhh. Razorblade [I'm going to keep calling you that forever, just so you know.] You are so brilliant. This deserves at least five stars, unfortunately I can only give you one.
But that is not the question. Why we are here, that is the question. And we are blessed in this, that we happen to know the answer. Yes, in this immense confusion one thing alone is clear. We are waiting for Godot to come. -Beckett
