a.k.a. "Roll the Old Chariot Along"
Yeah, this is low-hanging fruit since it's a supply-your-own-verses song, but that's why it lends itself so well to being picked up by disgruntled agents trying to pass the time!
Well, a day without a [BEEP!] wouldn't do us any harm!
A day without a [BEEP!] wouldn't do us any harm!
A day without a [BEEP!] wouldn't do us any harm!
And we won't be long behind.
Chorus:
And we'll roll the old loony bin along,
We'll roll the old loony bin along,
We'll roll the old loony bin along,
And we won't be long behind.
And a decent night of sleep wouldn't do us any harm...!
Chorus
Another sip of Bleepka wouldn't do us any harm...!
Chorus
Just a little bit of drool wouldn't do us any harm...!
Chorus
And a fic that doesn't suck wouldn't do us any harm...!
Chorus
And a big, fat check wouldn't do us any harm...!
Chorus
And any pay at all wouldn't do us any harm...!
Chorus
And so on!
Jenni: Another verse or five wouldn't do us any harm...!
... Oh, all right.
And we'll roll the old loony bin along,
We'll roll the old loony bin along,
We'll roll the old loony bin along,
And we won't be long behind.
Derik: A drop of Benden red wouldn't do us any harm...!
Chorus
Gall: Another horn of mead wouldn't do us any harm...!
Chorus
Ilraen: A run on the grass wouldn't do us any harm...!
Chorus
Nume: Some goddamn peace and quiet wouldn't do us any harm...!
All: And we won't be long behind!

P.S. What verses would your agents add? {= D
P.P.S. My headcanon is that a version of this song definitely made it to Pern, and I might write that filk, too.
