The Twelve Days of the Gathering

By Gareth Young (revised by Paul Harrison)

 

On the 1st day of the Gathering, McYokel gave to me
A drow hanging from a fir tree

On the 2nd day of the Gathering, McYokel gave to me
2 Lions combusting

On the 3rd day of the Gathering, McYokel gave to me
3 Queenies ruling

On the 4th day of the Gathering, McYokel gave to me
4 Harts a poncing

On the 5th day of the Gathering, McYokel gave to me
1 Floris Brand (da dah da da dah)

On the 6th day of the Gathering, McYokel gave to me
6 rituals failing

On the 7th day of the Gathering McYokel gave to me
7 Swords of Wayland

On the 8th day of the Gathering, McYokel gave to me
8 factions fighting

On the 9th day of the Gathering, McYokel gave to me
9 Guilds a squabbling

On the 10th day of the Gathering, McYokel gave to me
10 lords retreating

On the 11th day of the Gathering, McYokel gave to me
11 Tankards clinking

On the 12th day of the Gathering, McYokel gave to me
12 stupid songs
11 Tankards clinking
10 lords retreating
9 Guilds a squabbling
8 factions fighting
7 Swords of Wayland
6 rituals failing
1 Floris Brand (da dah da da dah)
4 Harts a poncing
3 Queenies ruling
2 Lions combusting
and a drow hanging from a fir tree
