No Elf Ears in the S.C.A.

(Tune "Y.M.C.A." by the Village People)
By Gorlan of the Red Lands, 1998

    No elf ears in the S_C_A
    No dwarf beards in the S_C_A
    We don't want Klingons here
    This isn't a CON
    You wear elf ears and you'll be gone

    Young lord, if you into medieval times
    I say young lord,
    There's some rules you must mind
    I mean, young lord,
    We recreate history
    We just don't go for Sci-Fi or fantasy
    So young lord, you can have a fun time
    Goes as a Celt
    Or a Tudor refined
    So young lord,
    If you listen to me
    You can have fun in the so-ci-aty

    But remember

    Chorus:
    No elf ears in the S_C_A
    No dwarf beards in the S_C_A
    We don't want Klingons here
    This isn't a CON
    You wear elf ears and you'll be gone
    No elf ears in the S_C_A
    No Dwarf beards in the S_C_A
    We don't use spell balls here
    We use rattan
    Come on fight like a man

    Young lord, we don't pull our blows
    I mean Young Lord
    It's more manly you know
    You can go there
    And fight in a huge melee
    And hack and slash the whole day
    And then at night, when the fighting is done
    I tell you, young lord
    You can schmooze and have fun
    You can brag of your fights
    Or sing by the fires
    Or go Squarking with all the Squires.

    Just Remember:

    Chorus:


History. The Story Behind this Song

 There is always some culture shock between Live role playing groups and the SCA. And I hate to admit it that many SCAdians I have known can get very snobbish when dealing with or discussing Live Role players or LARFS. To my mind there are only two significant differences. 1) In the SCA we fight at full force. 2) The live role players use Spell, Bards, Clerics, etc giving there battles more of a Dungeons and Dragons/Fantasy flavor. I've had fun in both environments. I don't see either one as the "Correct" way to play, just different. The intention of this song is poke fun at some of the attitudes I have heard expressed.
