King Iofur's Song
I wrote this on an impulse. Basically, this is the song of King Iofur Raknison. Imagine Iofur breaking out into song when Lyra tells him she's a daemon and wants to be his daemon. If The Golden Compass were a musical, and Disney's: The Jungle Book never happened, this is what might have happened. Enjoy.
 King Iofur's Song (Parody of I Wanna Be Like You) Now, I'm the mightiest king of all The ice-world's VIP I've reached the top, and had to stop And that's what's been bothering me I wanna be a human, Lyra And stroll right in to town And be just like the other men I'm tired of cub'n around! Oh, Oo-be-doo! I wanna be like you! I wanna walk like you, Talk like you too! You'll see it's true: A bear like me Can learn to be human too! Now, don't try to fool me, Lyra I've made a deal with you What I desire is daemon fire to make my dream come true! Now, give me your secret, Lyra C'mon, tell me what to do! Give me a clue of what I must do So I can acquire you! Oh, Oo-be-doo! I wanna be like you! I wanna walk like you, Talk like you too! You'll see it's true: A bear like me Can learn to be human too! Yeah, you! I wanna be like you! I wanna walk like you Talk like you too! You'll see it's true: Someone like me Can learn to be someone like me! I can learn to be someone like you! I can learn to be someone like me! Yeah, man! EDIT: You know, a comment or two would be nice...

I really like this, Blizzaga! It would be hilarious if Iofur actually sang this (Can bears sing, by the way? I've never heard Iorek or any other bear sing.). If they ever make The Golden Compass into a musical (Unlikely), they HAVE to use this song.

Yeah, but I always imagined the bears having deep, monotone voices. I suppose they could sing a barratone maybe, but I can't see them singing upbeat. But eh, that's just me.

Really? I imagined Iofur as the "Shirley Bearsey" type... |
