Farscape/Scorpius Filks + Drawings

Newspapers and ads put to creative use

This first filk, the second I wrote (I'll add the first one here sometime soon, too) is based on "Always on My Mind" originally sung by Elvis, if I'm right, though I'm more familiar with the '80's Pet Shop Boys version, I fear. :)

Always in your mind

Maybe I didn't treat you
quite as rough as I should
Maybe I didn't interrogate you
quite as often as I could
Little things I should've asked about
I never had the chance

I am always in your mind
Scorpy's always in your mind

Maybe I didn't probe you
enough of awful, awful times
and I guess I never told you
I'm so happy that you're mine
If I made you feel second rate
I'm so sorry but I'm right

I am always in your mind
Scorpy's always in your mind

Tell me all about the wormholes in your mind
Give me one more chance to make you terrified... terrified...

Little things I should've asked about
I never had the chance
Scorpy's always in your mind
Scorpy's always in your mind

Tell me that your wormhole theories haven't died
Give me one more chance to make you terrified
Scorpy's always in your mind...
(-repeat five times-)

Maybe I didn't treat you
quite as rough as I should
Maybe I didn't interrogate you
quite as often as I could
Maybe I didn't probe you
enough of awful, awful times
and I guess I never told you
I'm so happy that you're mine


This second one is based on Culture Club's Karma Chameleon.

Scarran-Sebacean

I see danger in his eyes all the way
If he listened to your lies would he say
I'm a man without a conscience
I'm a man who doesn't know
why you lie through your teeth
you come and go, you come and go...

Scarran, Scarran, Scarran, Scarran,
Scarran-Sebacean...
you come and go, you come and go
Torture would be easy if your colours were like his are
red, black and white, red black and white

He can hear your wicked lies every time
and he even had a sweetheart on the side
and her heat was an addiction
but when he's hot, the rod pops out
once it's out, he needs a new one
and then he's fine, and then he's fine...

Scarran, Scarran, Scarran, Scarran,
Scarran-Sebacean...
you come and go, you come and go
Torture would be easy if your colours were like his are
red, black and white, red black and white

Loving him is pure survival, survival,
you're his lover and his rival
Loving him is pure survival, survival,
you're his lover and his rival

He's a man without a conscience
He's a man who doesn't know
why you lie through your teeth
He comes and goes, he comes and goes...

Scarran, Scarran, Scarran, Scarran,
Scarran-Sebacean...
you come and go, you come and go
Torture would be easy if your colours were like his are
red, black and white, red black and white...
(-repeat chorus 3 times-)
