Winners of my Logosmas song competition
Written by: Lethe
Date: Thursday, December 26th, 2002
Addressed to: Everyone
While all of the entries I received were excellent, and I enjoyed
singing all of them in the Garden (much to the chagrin of the other
Immortals, I'm sure), I could only select three as the best. So that you
can all enjoy them as I did, I've decided to post the winners here.
Merry Logosmas!

A Logosmas Drinking Song, by Jyxar K'hura.
Logosmas time! Logosmas time!
A time for song and dancing.
Logosmas time! Perhaps Divine
Occasional depantsing.*
CHORUS
Logosmas time! Logosmas time!
The festival of drinking!
Logosmas time! Logosmas time!
Drink 'till the floor is sinking!
So find a Satyr and challenge him
To drink under the table.
You won't come up for breath of air
Until you are unable!
Logosmas time! Logosmas time!
A time for quiet thinking.
Logosmas time! Break out the wine!
A time for heavy drinking.
CHORUS
Logosmas time! Logosmas time!
A time for holly, kissing.
Logosmas time! To those who whine:
You don't know what you're missing!
CHORUS

A Logosmas Story, by Nutopia
Once long ago
In a city far away
A child dreamed of Ascension
And to the Gods each day he prayed
He prayed to Valnurana
To make his dreams come true
But She was deep in slumber
And there was nothing She could do
So then he prayed to Vastar
That he might win his goals
But Vastar was impartial
And refused to taint his soul
In desperation he prayed to Twilight
To open all the doors
But the child did not know Darkness
And found not the dreams he sought
Broken and disheartened
To Sarapis he prayed
And heard a voice within him
That whispered as he lay
"Dear child do not suffer so
For words you wish to hear
For all your prayers are heard to Me
They are whispered in My ear"
"For once I felt like you did
I was restless with My world
And so I created the Logos
To give some purpose to your world"
"So sleep now My child
And remember these wise words
For the Logos is the reason
You desire to be heard"

(In a deep, manly, dwarfish, hoarse voice)
It's Logomas time... best time of the year...
The only time I have a career
Take a shower.... throw away the beer...
Zip up my big red suit... put on the beard
(chorus time)
Cause I'm Commercial Logos, I bring kids joy
Commercial Logos, and no... I don't give toys
Just give me your wish... it might come true
If you're really good, mom n' dad might give it to you
(2 particularly small young dwarfs, and 1 old wench looking female dwarf
comes to the mic)
(The 2 Young Dwarfs sing) OoooOoooo Logos OoooOOOooooOOOOO
(back to the verse)
Just take you candy cane... and be on your way
Gotta lotta kids to see... Gonna be a long day
Hoping my portal will start... So I can get home today
I'll be back tomorrow, to get my pay
(Interlude)
(music plays a little bit)
(The 2 dwarfs get to the mic again and sing) OOoooOOO Mom... can we see
Logos?
(The wench woman of a dwarf sings in a voice like a fish wife, very
sharply) No! The line's too long.
(The 2 young dwarfs with very sad and pitiful looks says)
UhhhhHHhhhh....
(Back to the chorus!)
Cause I'm Commercial Logos, I'm underpaid
Underappreciated... in every way
Commercial Logos... Do you even care?
So WHAT! if I can't grow real facial haaaaaairrrrrr.
(the end)
(by the way, the choir sings along during the chorus)
I, Eirefal, would like to thank The West Mountain Dwarf Choir of Cyrene
for singing along...
And I hope all of you enjoy this lovely Logosmas song played on the
guitar-
A happy merry jolly Logosmas to ya'll too!
Penned by my hand on the 17th of Chronos, in the year 323 AF.
