It caused an earworm, but the lyrics started warping: DISCWORLD NIGHTFALL Nigel Parsons (tune: Skyfall) This is the Broken Drum. A place we watchmen like to come. My brain is turning numb, Because I'm drinking Scum – ble This is a friendly pub. But bring a crossbow, knife or club. I really should have had more grub. I'm getting drunk, and here's the rub When it's night fall, I drink Scumble. I would stand tall If I, If I could stand at all. At night fall. There may be more to follow, but I had to get it written down. Cheers Nigel |

A place we watchmen like to come. My brain is turning numb, Because I'm drinking Scum – ble This is a friendly pub. But bring a crossbow, knife or club. I really should have had more grub. I'm getting drunk, and here's the rub When it's nightfall, I drink Scumble. I would stand tall If I, If I could stand at all. At night fall. There's a man we've never caught. He travels at the speed of thought. To him a closed door's just a port. They tell me that his name is Mort And at nightfall He drinks scumble Just like his master does, But the drink doesn't puddle at his toes Fred Colon wants a rumble Angua wants a tumble. Me, I shouldn't grumble. I'm getting pissed drunk on Scumble. 'Cos at night fall, I drink Scumble. I would stand tall If I, If I could stand at all. At nightfall. So I've been drinking Scumble It makes me feel quite humble, Mumble, mumble, mumble, At nightfall Zzzzzzz. . . |

Pedantry corner: Didn't the Broken Drum become the Mended Drum fairly early on in the Discworld series? There's a real life Mended Drum pub in Yorkshire. No scumble, but the website says they'll shortly be serving Thundering Molly cider. Mended Drum, Yorksher LFF |
