SCOP'S Ramblings: Okay, I needed to submit SOMETHING as my first entry to break the ice. Granted I have 53 stories STARTED since the end of Series 4, (I counted). My unfortunate lot in life is to have a full story plop into my head from the AETHER all at once and before I get it finished, another one plops in and grabs my attention. It can be like trying to pull teeth from a chicken to get them out of my head sometimes. I'm hoping putting submission posts here will change all that!
This is short though. It resulted from a comic Season 6 wishlist thread on the SYFY Merlin fan board that quickly came round to the ever piped dreamed for Merlin musical.
Enjoy, I might put other songs up if the muse strikes me and if I get ambitious, I might even write the book as well.
Rated T for a couple of words to be on the safe side.
Here's my submission for the first song to Merlin: The Rock Opera
Title: Arthur's Court Wizard
{Loose fit to the Who's Pinball Wizard}
Note: This song is a Parody
Disclamier: I do not own Merlin, Tommy, or the original song
(Scop out!)

Ever since he was a young boy
He'd lay those magic spells
From Ealdore down to Camelot
He'd give the bad guys hell
Gaius ain't seen nothing like him
To ever tread the land
That serving boy of Arthur's
Shh! Has a magic hand
{
He stands there in the background
Polishing the brass
Or mucking out the stables
Or filling up a glass
He plays the banter game well
Becomes the brunt of jokes
But that serving boy of Arthur's
Shh! Is a magic bloke
{
He's the greatest wizard
Who's been for all time
But it's a secret lonly life
In a kingdom where magic's a crime
{
He's even got a dragon! I know I know!
Man that is so cool!
{
He dazzles with distractions
Works behind the scenes
Fires flare "Forbærne!"
His eye's of golden gleam
He's saved they're lives a thousand times
No one suspects at all
That serving boy of Arthur's
On the inside is walking tall
{
His destiny's
To crown Albion's king
To build a just land
And give Arthur the sword that sings
{
His loyalty's unquestioned
And he can beat the best
Dropping limbs on bandits
Or riddling out a quest
Destiny has bound him
If he doesn't fall off track
That serving boy of Arthur's
Shh! Will bring magic back
