Based on "I swear I saw a Dragon" from Disney's Pete's Dragon

Ryan: A Dragon! A dragon!
Ryan: Amanda's now a dragon
Ryan: A red and seething fire-breathing monster is in sight
Ryan: With eyes of black, I hear her wings a-flapping in the night
Ryan: Oh, she has a jaw of gleaming teeth
Ryan: She's 15 feet in height!

Gwen: It's true! It's true!
Gwen: Oh what's her flapping do?
Lindsey: It's true! It's true!
Lindsey: Your ship speed is TIMES TWO!

Becca: Oh, she's flyin' in
Becca: Her great big fin against the wheelhouse door
Becca: So cover all the windows
Becca: And keep off the first floor!

Nick: A dragon! A dragon!
Nick: Amanda's now a dragon!
Nick: Infection growing, no-one knowing if she'll come back down.
Nick: With movements fleet, she can't be beat, not even by a clown!
Nick: It's not some silly joke,
Nick: I saw her write the new stats down!

Gwen: It's true! It's true!
Gwen: Will one cask of wine do?
Amanda: It's true! It's true!
Amanda: You'd better make it two.

Will: A dragon! A dragon!
Will: Amanda was a dragon!
Tom: You're high tonight,
Tom: And those book bites have infected your brain!
Tom: You silly bloke, the hooka smoke has put you in a daze!
Tom: Now come with me! Now come with me!
Tom: And forget your power plays!

Tom: What makes you think she ever was?
Tom: She never was!
Tom: She, never, never, ever was a dragon, dragon, dragon.....!
I wasn't sure if I'd actually write this filk or not, it seemed a little too obvious. However I had to give it a try after seeing this pop up at the top of my Deviant Art list.

Once I got going the concept of each of us singing part really made it click.

Again, this is another filk inspired by the Mysterious Game of Mystery. A little more true to the game's events than my others. This of course fulfills my subconcious need to write a filk for every party member, not only because it's about Amanda but also because each of us has a part.

Oh if only I could convince my friends to let me make a video of this! Maybe I should buy them some booze first...
