Call Me, Maybe?

by tmwillson3

Song Parody of Call Me Maybe. A heavily revised version of a songfic/parody I did previously for Valentine's Day. Sarah goes to a Valentine's Day party, and she meets a mysterious stranger. Who could it be?

Call Me, Maybe: Version 2

Author's Disclaimer: No, I do not own Labyrinth or Call Me Maybe. All rights go to their respective owners. I am taking part in an art improvement contest, and I chose to revise the first songfic/parody I did, called Call Me Maybe. The premise: Sarah goes to a Valentine's Day masquerade, where she flirts with a mysterious stranger. We can all guess who that actually is. Small note: a "~" means that a new stanza starts. Enjoy!

~Milling about in the hall,

Awkward pink hearts on each wall.

At the Valentine's Day ball

I feel real out of place.

~No white gown worn out tonight,

But with a mask I just might

Find "him" in the candlelight.

But I feel out of place.

~Dancers acted dead.

Saxophone reared its head,

Blonde hair, show-off in red:

There's a stranger to dance with me!

~I wish like a fool

That he'll turn and see,

And when he's finished,

He's winking, baby!

~There are so many girls

'Cause he looks free,

But he goes past them

And comes right to me.

~He smiles, and we start to talk,

Losing all track of the clock

As we keep laughing and rock,

And now I've found my place.

~I disappear in a blink,

And I give him a wink.

He smiles shrewdly and comes to me,

So I move my place.

~Dancers acting dead,

Sax player shows his head,

Blonde hair, sexy in red,

Now he wants to waltz around me!

~I hope like a fool

That he'll waltz with me,

And when he comes back,

He's grinning at me.

It's easy to dance with you, baby,

I'm glad you came back

And want me badly.

~You sing so sweet into my ear

With me in your arms,

Held close in your arms,

With me close in your arms.

~You sing something familiar

With me in your arms,

And I do love that,

Being held in your arms.

It's easy to waltz with you, baby.

We should meet later,

So call me maybe.

~I smile like a fool

As he answers me,

And when he unmasks,

It's Jareth I see!

~You laugh, delighted, at my face,

And tell me gladly

You'll date me proudly,

Then kiss me finally.

~Your laugh and smile mirror my face,

And we kiss madly.

And I do love that.

I love you maybe.

~(Now all the other boys

Run away from me,

Because I have Jareth,

Who is far more manly.)

Author's Notes: Happy Valentine's Day! I am much more satisfied with this version, keeping only the very last stanza in its entirety. The first version was more of a cross between the two genres, making me dissatisfied with it, hence why it was chosen. As someone put it, it needed more changes to the original words. Same rhyme scheme of Call Me Maybe, and premise of Sarah going to a Valentine's Day masquerade. Sarah had a good time, and I hope you did, too! :D Thanks for reading and commenting!
