"I SAW 'NARA KISSIN' CAP'N MAL"

A "Firefly" Christmas Filk

"I saw 'Nara kissin' Cap'n Mal

Underneath the walkway late last night

They didn't see me creep

From the engine room to peek

Thought that I was tucked up in my

little bunk asleep.

Oh I saw 'Nara with her smilin' eyes

Usin' all them wiles without a care

Oh what a thing it was to see

Them two sweet as can be

An' 'Nara kissin' Cap'n Mal last night!

Then I saw Jayne a-creepin' on the stair

Tryin' oh so hard to do it right

I saw him damn near creep

To River's bunk to sneak

A look upon that lady while she was

so fast asleep.

An' I saw somethin' that I never guessed

Heart stoppin' as I looked on in surprise

For draped across his back

Was the biggest gorram sack

Filled with presents for the Christmas

tree!

A noise below made me go sneakin' back

Lookin' down on Simon all so *swai*

With Shepherd Book and Wash

All the trimmin's out because

It was Christmas Eve an' too much time

had all been lost.

Then I saw Zoe join the rest below

Cap'n an' 'Nara comin' too

Jayne joined them with a smile

An' the presents all were piled

Underneath the Christmas tree last night!

Eyes bright I couldn't tear myself away

Then I heard the Cap'n softly speak

'Little Kaylee, River too

Got no family but you

A Christmas celebration is the only thing

to do.'

Tears bedimmed the cryin' of my eyes

T'was true I missed my daddy an' my ma

Ain't no baby but I see

I got this family

Makin' Christmas in the Black for me!"
