Saffron Filk – Lies and Pretend by Ziv Gur-Arye

"Lies & Pretend"
(to the tune of "Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend"
by Ziv Gur-Arye

Some girls will step-all over your heart
And though you'd say it's cruel
Honey I just-don't give a crap
As long as my pockets are full

Saffron Original – Devil in Red by River and the Reavers

"Devil in Red" by River and the Reavers
(Listen to it here)

She waits like a lion in the grass
Anxious hours wasted waiting to attack

It’s been easy come and easy go
But every time it happens the empty seems to grow

But, Oh! to dance
With flowered hair
To drink the wine
Forever mine

Saffron Original – Time to Run by The Persephone Pickers

"Time to Run" by The Persephone Pickers
(Listen to it here)

what's in your mind is:
'what's in it for me'
you're never satisfied
i guess you'll never be
your beauty's betraying
like a siren's song
you try to stay
but you can't stay long

Saffron Original – Undressed by Zane Stafford

"Undressed" by Zane Stafford
(Listen to it here)

There upon the lips
That melt good hearts and sink their ships
I started falling
Then I stopped falling
For your naiveté undressed
The cellar door, the elder's best
As your true colors had their say
And the lights around me faded away

Saffron Filk – Devil Woman by Kara Clark

"Devil Woman"
(to the tune of "Witchy Woman" by The Eagles)
by Kara Clark

Crimson hair and deadly lips,  
Sin in the curve of her hips.  

Just listen to her plan,  
She's a vixen virgin with a foolproof scam.

Mmm, hmm, devil woman, see how fast they fall. 
Mmm, hmm, devil woman, she'll make you risk it all.  

Even our Mal believed her lie, 
With Bible quotes and a downcast eye.  

Another husband, another moon,
Driving men to madness,  
And leaving so soon.

Mmm, hmm, devil woman, see how fast they fall. 
Mmm, hmm, devil woman, she'll make you risk it all.  

Well, I know it's dangerous, but 
I like her Earth That Was. She's fire and
I want to get burned.

She's fast talk with a lot of wiggle
In her walk.

Oh, it might not last, Saffron and I,  
But it'd be worth the price.

Mmm, hmm, devil woman, see how fast they fall.  
Mmm, hmm, devil woman, she'll make you risk it all. 

===================

From the creator:

"Been a fan since the original airings, and happily part of the crazy folks that have gone to Vegas for a Casino Job, and a Sindig, respectively. Going to branch out and make it to Dragon*Con this year. Will be my first Con, I can't wait. Incidentally, I am costuming as YoSaffBrige…"

Saffron Filk – Saffron by Heather Daniel

"Saffron"
(to the tune of “Evil Ways” by Santana)
by Heather Daniel

You’ve got a lot of evil ways….Saffron
You gave Mal a good-night kiss
You stole his shuttle….Saffron
And you led his crew amiss
You left them running and shouting
All about you
Mal went looking and searching
He finally found
And knocked you out
Don’t cross the crew again….Saffron

Freaking at the Reaver ball

prop_reaverball.jpg

A popular and economical gang weapon was to stick a bunch of double-edged razor blades into a potato. Easy to make, very dangerous, easy to toss into the gutter if the cops came.

The Reavers just took it a step farther, that's all. They're cunning little cannibalistic barbarians, aren't they?

The Reavers used these vicious looking weapons in the final battle scene of the film. This is a hero version made from brown modeller’s clay with actual hard resin spikes sticking out of it, painted to resemble metal, this would never have been thrown during filming for safety reasons. Measures 13cm (5") in diameter. Must be over 18 years of age to purchase this item.

Saffron Filk – All the Weddings by Browncoat Bud

"All the Weddings"
(to the tune of All the Small Things by Blink 182)
by Browncoat Bud

All the weddings
To wear new rings
She’ll take the gifts
The bride’s best trick

Always I know
You’ll steal my dough
Watching, waiting
Completely faking

Saffron Filk – I Love YoSaffBridge by J.M. Harmon

"I Love YoSaffBridge"
(to the tune of "I Love Rock N' Roll" by J. Hooker and A. Merrill, popular cover by Joan Jett and the Blackhearts)
by J.M. Harmon

Kaylee's the cutest girl with a hammer I've seen
Inara's always hot when she's on the screen
Zoe's a bit too strong
River's brain is gone
But the 'Verse has a girl so wrong
She's right for me, yeah me
Yeah I said she's a girl so wrong
She's right for me, yeah me, because

I love YoSaffBridge
I'm gonna get in line, be your husband, baby
I love YoSaffBridge
So won'tcha say good night and come kiss me
