Neil Diamond's songs are struck again, in this parody of 'America'. Again, sorry Neil. Once again, # denotes singin'.


CATEGORY: FILK    TIMES READ: 3070    RATING: 10    SERIES: FIREFLY

INARA & RIVER: #Far

We've been travelling far

Without a home

But not without a star

Free

Only want to be free

We huddle close

Hang on to a dream#

ZOE: #From the border and from the core#

ALL: #They're coming to Serenity#

ZOE: #Always wantin’ to see more#

ALL: #They're coming to Serenity#

JAYNE & WASH: #Home, don't it seem so far away

Oh, we're travelling light today#

ALL: #In the eye of the storm

In the eye of the storm#

BOOK: #Home, to a new and a shiny place

Make our bed, and we'll say grace#

MAL (muttered quietly): “Or not.”

ALL: #Freedom's light burning warm

Freedom's light burning warm#

SIMON: #Everywhere around the ‘verse#

ALL: #They're coming to Serenity#

SIMON: #When the Alliance’s proved worse#

ALL: #They're coming to Serenity#

KAYLEE: #Got a dream to take them there#

ALL: #They're coming to Serenity#

KAYLEE: #Got a dream they've come to share#

ALL: #They're coming to Serenity#

ALL: #They're coming to Serenity,

They're coming to Serenity,

They're coming to Serenity,

They're coming to Serenity

Today, today, today, today, today#

MAL: #My ‘fly 'tis of thee#

CREW: #(Today)#

MAL: #Sweet ship of liberty#

CREW: #(Today)#

MAL: #Of thee I sing#

CREW: #(Today)#

MAL: #Of thee I sing#

ALL: #Today, today, today, today, today#
