''And not a soul to hear.''|'''''The Rains of Castamere''''', [[A Song of Ice and Fire]]}}

 

*** Also in ''Marlfox''. "Who be death? We be death! Dis de blade wot stop your breath!"

** And then there's [[Affably Evil|Flinky's]] many songs in ''Loamhedge''. All of them are great, but the darkest is the "Vermin Lullaby", which was a normal lullaby at first, before it suddenly got [[Darker and Edgier]] in the second chorus.

* The ''[[Star Trek]]'' novel "How Much For Just the Planet?", being a rather... ''different''... ''Trek'' [[Rule of Funny|story]], features "My Own Sweet Tyrannical Way", sung by [[God Save Us From the Queen|Queen Janeka]]. Having captured Sulu, McCoy, and a pair of [[Friendly Enemy|Klingons]], she launches into a high-kicking musical number about [[Punch Clock Villain|what a pain in the ass is it to be a barbarian queen in these crazy modern times]]... her litany of complaints include an uncomfortable [[Chainmail Bikini]], dodging [[Klingon Promotion]] attempts, keeping a rowdy barbarian horde under control, and [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking|paying the heating bill for the ]] [[Elaborate Underground Base|Underground Lair]]. Though in the end, she concludes it's totally [[Worth It]], since the [[For the Evulz|Evulz are too much fun to give up]].

* The closest thing to one in the [[Left Behind]] books is Nicolae Carpathia's self-indulgent national anthem "Hail Carpathia", which gets twisted by Buck Williams into [["The Villain Sucks" Song]] "Fail Carpathia".
