kjnIt's time for Wårldcån in 2017! Which must be celebrated with a song!
When they pulled into Spokane town in time for Sasquan con,
We had high hopes that they would bring, the Worldcon some new fun.
We had been to Swedish parties, and some Norwegian too,
And expecting something sim'lar, but no idea on what they'd do
The Finns are banned from Worldcon, everyone.
Banned from Worldcon, they're just having too much fun.
They spent a jolly weekend here for just five days or four,
But Worldcon doesn't want Finns any more.
Eemeli plied vodka freely, to ev'ryone he gave,
He never warned that it included a salmiakki wave.
The Hotel staff were on the way, we had no second chance,
We tossed him out in the nick of time, but the parties were enhanced.
The Finns are banned from Worldcon, everyone...
The Guests of Honor were on display, to show that they were great,
Some Finns started singing a filk song they did write.
They sang words in languages that we didn't understand,
But hearing French the Spokane cops put them in remand.
The Finns are banned from Worldcon, everyone...
Jukka volunteer'd to gopher, checking badges at the door,
He turned it into a quiz show that claimed all our floor.
The venue staff arrived in force to take the con floor back,
But his questions demanded answers that left them out of wack.
The Finns are banned from Worldcon, everyone...
A gang of Klingons landed, and nobody seemed to care
They stamped into the sauna to announce that they were there.
Half the Finns were busy inside and invited them to stay,
but they Klingons only looked at them, and turned and ran away.
The Finns are banned from Worldcon, everyone...
Our fans are the world's finest, and the Worldcons are our pride,
But then they came with parties that left the sky so dyed.
We're sorry 'bout the Moomins and the vodka and the fuss,
But at least the Business Meeting could still be run by us!
The Finns are banned from Worldcon, everyone...
But lets go there...
Ttto of "Banned from Argo", if anyone missed it.
ETA: Switched "play" to "stay" in the sauna verse. Fits better with Finnish culture.
