DJ Dee is gracious enough to give us a taste of less than noble parodies of Disney songs (Slaughter Your World still being my favorite), but what if your characters were suddenly forced to sing their own?
Must be as close to the tune of whatever song you're going for. I'll start.
[center]Do You Want to Kill a Hero
From the musical "Frightened"[/center]
[br]
*rubs a crystal ball and up pops an image of Nocturne*
Oh Nocturne~!
Do you wanna kill a hero?
Our enemies should pay.
C'mon let's go cause a war,
Kill two or three or four.
I haven't got all day.
We could raise the bodies
And then march them through
The chaos would be so graaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand.
Do you wanna kill a hero?
Doesn't have to be a hero.
"No Nightmare"
Okay, bye....
*rings up Drosselmeyer*
"Hello?"
Do you wanna kill a Hero?
I have the perfect one picked out.
I know your toys would help so much.
You have that special touch
And citizens would shout!
(Keep screaming, worm)
It's a little boring
Sitting idly by
Planning some giant scheeeeeeeeeeeme
*click*
(UGH! I need action, damn you.)
Cultists? Please..
I know it's different
We've not been so direct...
I say "No Kills. Restraint is key."
And it's not like me
to ask you as a sect...
But I'm in need of chaos
and the fear it brings
once calamity ensues....
Do you wanna kill some heroes?
[B]Revenge is motivation enough. At least it's honest...[/B]

If one of my red side toons burst out into song, it would be
Once Upon A Scream, from Sacrificed Beauty
I’ll kill you, I’ll watch your blood spurt across the floor
I’ll kill you, the fear in your eye is so delicious to me
My blade will be true, and incisions are just the start you see
And I know its true that your blood is blue
I’ll run you through once, the way I did once upon a scream
And if I know you, I know what you’ll do,
You’ll start to scream out, but there’s no way out, of this bad dream
I killed you, though you tried to stumble towards the door
I killed you, when I dragged you back for more
Yes I know its true, that tortures intense but not for me
Because as you see, I’m not just crazy
I’m psychotic, insane, not right in the brain
And I’ll be seeing you once upon a scream

This is Princess Relena
[img=700x854]http://i.imgur.com/IpLJd.jpg[/img]
...she was very insane Faerie Catgirl Princess Vampire! Made as a joke character after seeing a vampire catboy in Pocket D. She even liked to stab people with a magic straw and suck their blood. The idea was to get her reformed...she started going after just bad guys...RP project that failed :/ But here was one of the songs song by her (and a victim >_>)
Somewhere!
Under the blood moon!
Way down low...
Someone is screaming...
"OH god! Don't drop me! Please don't let me die! I won't commit a crime ever again! Oh god!"
...Please, don't let go!
"Aaaaaaaaaaah!"
Hmmm I should probably have a song sung by Gravemire or Dread then. I see a lot of potential with them.....
Now if only I knew actually how to write songs....

The point of 'Filk Songs' is to pick a song you know, one that almost doesn't say what you want to say, and re-write it with irony and forethought! Turn a lovely baladic lullaby like "Greensleeves" into something sick, twisted, and disturbing, like "Redsleeves".
You're not expected to compose something completely new, like "[url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TytGOeiW0aE]The Masochism Tango[/url]"
Be Well!

Although if you can, and if the subject is sufficiently F and/or SF related, it would still count as filk. Most of what I have heard from Kirby Krackle, for example.
And some filk has taken existing poetry and set it to music. Kipling is popular. And someone set "Green Hills of Earth" to the tune of the theme from "Gilligan's Island". ^_^

Barbie Brat and Naughty Nina
Walkin' through the Shoppin' Mall
Laughin' back and forth
At what the other'ne has to say
Gettin' new nails, tryin' on shoes
Havin' such a good time
Oo-de-lally, Oo-de-lally
Golly, what a day
Never ever thinkin' there was danger from those silly Rook scrubs
They were teasin' an puttin' down
Never dreamin' that a demon and his homeboys
Was a-watchin' them an' gatherin' around
Barbie Brat and Naughty Nina
Blastin' an Scrappin' bad guys
Kickin' and a Flyin'
Not letting them get away
Contemplatin' nothin'
But what they wearin' to the club tonight
Oo-de-lally, Oo-de-lally
Golly, what a day
Oo-de-lally, Oo-de-lally
Golly, what a day
Rest up Brat, I'll see you again some day.
This commercial makes me smile every time

I love that commercial so much! My favorite part is when the chimp falls back on the ground xD
