#20 Watch Out Mickey Mouse
So we all know that Hyperion Books is owned by Disney.
Also we know that there will eventually be an Artemis Fowl movie coming out.
Based on this information your quest this week is to imagine what would happen if Artemis Fowl was turned into a Disney movie.
And I don't mean the stylized new live action Disney films, but the old fashioned Burst-Into-Spontaneous-Song-for-No-Apparent-Reason variety.
What would that be like?
Your assignment is to show us, by taking any pre-existing Disney or other Musical song and changing the lyrics so that it could be sung by the Artemis Fowl cast.
The changes can be anything from a few words to the entire thing.
If you're stuck for songs to use here are some I think would work well to start you off.
Lion King: Be Prepared: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HZ6cw_MuTDE
Pocahontas Savages: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2av9SQsMIi8
(Yeah...I've... thought about this more than once ... )

Re: #20 Watch Out Mickey Mouse
Hmm... God this challenge is tough! >.> Uhh... I'll use the song Fabulous from High School Musical 2 but I doubt I'll be able to make the winning entry. Basically, it's the exact same thing, except replace "I need fabulous" with "I need gold", and instead of "I need, I need, I need, I need, I need, I need, I need Fabbuuulooouuuuusss!" replace Fabulous with Gold. Again. And instead of Ryan singing "Is it absolutely fabulous, Fabulous, FABULOUS?" it's going to be Butler.
Good enough for you?
Please just imagine that, I feel very stupid when I put the words up here.

Re: #20 Watch Out Mickey Mouse
This took me some thinking, but once I had the song it all came together. I'm going to be singing this all day now...!
The song is Robin Hood's "Oh De Lally." Regular lyrics go like this...
Robin Hood and Little John
Walkin' through the forest
Laughin' back and forth
At what the other'ne has to say
Reminiscin', This-'n'-thattin'
Havin' such a good time
Oo-de-lally, Oo-de-lally
Golly, what a day
Never ever thinkin' there was danger in the water
They were drinkin', they just guzzled it down
Never dreamin' that a schemin' sherrif and his posse
Was a-watchin' them an' gatherin' around
Robin Hood and Little John
Runnin' through the forest
Jumpin' fences, dodgin' trees
An' tryin' to get away
Contemplatin' nothin'
But escape an' fin'lly makin' it
Oo-de-lally, Oo-de-lally
Golly, what a day
Oo-de-lally, Oo-de-lally
Golly, what a day
Now, for the Fowl lyrics...
Artemis and Minerva
Walking through the chateau
Laughing back and forth
At what the other had to say
Remembering their schemes and plots,
Little brothers, tongues in knots
Mas oui! Curious,
Arty, what a day.
Never even thinking that there might be cameras in the wings
A snooping centaur listening in
Enjoying one another’s company—that was, until they heard
A muffled whinny; saw a dwarf’s grin…
Foaly and Mulch Diggums,
Running through the chateau
Eating walls and galloping,
Trying to get away
Running down Commander Root,
Yelling “Mercy! Please don’t shoot!”
Mas oui! Curious,
Arty, what a day.
Mas oui! Curious,
Arty, what a day!
(Arty/Holly shippers can just replace "Minerva" with "Holly Short" if it will stop you all from killing me...!!! --hides behind Butler--)

Re: #20 Watch Out Mickey Mouse
Artemis version of He's a tramp-Lady and the Tramp
He is rich
And I love him
Breaks a few rules
Every day
He is smart
They adore him
And I'll only hope
He'll stay that way
He's a genius
He's sarcastic
He's evil
He is Irish
He is rich
but I love him
yes,even I
have became pretty bad!
You can never tell
When he'll have plot
He gives you
plenty of trouble
I guess he's just
too damn smart
but I wish that
he were double
He is rich
He is genius
And there's nothing
more to say
If he's a mastermind
he must be good one
and I wish I could
be mastermind as well!!!
Here it is!There are three entries now!

Re: #20 Watch Out Mickey Mouse
The rhyming isn't perfect, but I figured you might want another entry Plus, you know, Arty doesn't make the best first impression ...
Artemis Fowl
A Song for Holly Short, Sung to the Tune of Cruella De Vil
Artemis Fowl
Artemis Fowl
If he doesn’t scare you
No evil thing will
To see him is to feel a sudden chill
Artemis
Artemis Fowl
His vampire smile
His criminal wiles
He ought to be mind wiped
For the safety of this isle
Haven was such a secret place until
Artemis
Artemis Fowl
At first you think Artemis is a devil
But after time has worn away the shock
You come to realise
You’ve seen his kind of eyes
Shining with another evil plot
Artemis Fowl
Artemis Fowl
If he doesn’t scare you
No evil thing will
To see him is to feel a sudden chill
Artemis
Artemis Fowl

Re: #20 Watch Out Mickey Mouse
I'm really sorry I vanished there guys.
The Real World's gone haywire on me recently, trust me when I say I had very little control over it.
Anyway, time for the results....finally.
First place goes to....
Soulcatcher, I have to admit, I was hoping someone would enter this song, I've personally tried to Fowl-a-fiy the lyrics a few times and have yet to be able to suit them to anyone but Minerva. You did a great job making them work for Artemis, and maintained the rhyming nicely.
Second, Targetaquired,
Very clever to use a show as old school as Robin Hood, and the little story it tells made me smile. This is a very close second, keep up the great entries.
Third, MaeveCrowArtemis1
The fangirls needed a theme song, and you certainly didn't disappoint with this one.
Hollyshort9: I certainly hope Butler won't make a habit of suddenly bursting into song, it'd be nerve wracking.
Thanks for the entries everyone.
