WAHEY FILK-TIME IS HERE
A HORSE WITH NO NAME - America
Based on Teal'c's point of view when he first joined the SGC
-------------
On the first part of the journey
I was looking at all the lights
There were swirls and stars and colours and things
There was nausea, cold and bile
The first thing I met was a man with no hair, and a Doctor with cold hands
The Colonel was mad and his wit was dry
And the base was full of sound
I've been through the Stargate with a Goa'uld with no name
It felt good to be free of false Gods
With the Tau're, you can remember your name
'Coz there ain't no-one for to give you no shame
La la la la la-la lah
After two weeks at the SGC
My frown began to recede
After three weeks at the SGC
I understood I was someone they'd need
'Coz the stories they told, left me feeling real cold
Made me wish my people were freed
You see I've been through the Stargate with a Goa'uld with no name
It felt good to be free of false Gods
With the Tau're, you can remember your name
'Coz there ain't no-one for to give you no shame
La la la la la-la lah
After 2 years, I let them see me grin
'Coz it was clear we'd started to win
We'd met the Nox and the Tollan, and found zats and things
We'd been through battles and prison and rings
The SGC is a mountain with it's life underground
And a perfect disguise above
Under the mountain, live the friends I have made
But for thr Goa'uld I have no love
You see I've been through the Stargate with a Goa'uld with no name
It felt good to be free of false Gods
With the Tau're, you can remember your name
'Coz there ain't no-one for to give you no shame
La la la la la-la lah

Dunno why, but when I picture him singing the 'la la la' bit, I get an image of Lee Marvin doing "wondering star" in Paint Your Wagon.
Dedicated to Gemsong & spouse who ACTUALLY manage to sing these filks (drunk as skunks I hope?)
