Kelvoo's Testimonial includes three original songs! I enjoy writing tightly-structured rhyming poems, so why not include a few songs in my story? Early in part two (of three parts) of the book, Kelvoo and eight other kloormari find themselves on an interstellar vessel known as "Jezebel's Fury", which is used and crewed by a criminal gang of cutthroats and ne'er-do-wells, wreaking havoc across various star systems. The crew "welcomes" the kloormari aboard with their theme song: The Boys of Jezebel's Fury. Just to show that there is an actual melody behind the lyrics that appear in the book, I recorded the following video, complete with lyrics. I look forward to sharing the other two songs in later blog posts. We’re the boys of Jezebel’s Fury. We’re rotten, low life scum! We’re dirty sons of dirty whores. Riled up and full of rum! Full of rum, we’re full of rum! Hide your women, here we come! Join with us, we’ll have some fun, if you won’t, you’d better run! We’re the boys of Jezebel’s Fury. We’ll kill you while we smile. We’ll wear your guts like garters, full of sass and style! Full of style, we’re full of style! Add a dead man to our pile. Oh yes, we’re sick, oh yes, we’re vile! That’s what makes our lives worthwhile! We’re the boys of Jezebel’s Fury. We’re misfits one and all. Join our great adventure. Come on and heed our call. Heed our call, come heed our call! If you want to fight and brawl, full of grog and full of gall, join with us, we’ll have a ball! We’re the boys of Jezebel’s Fury! Aye! Order your copy of Kelvoo's Testimonial
