To the tune of “Breathe (2 AM)” by Anna Nalick
Filked by Kelly

2 AM and I’m still in the Darksider Suite,
I’ll be lucky if I get three hours of sleep
Must be August, i-it’s the Ge-enCon season

Yeah we walk through the Hyatt to the squeals of hello
‘Cause we hav’n’t seen each other since one year ago
Fellow geeks, we’re all here for the very same reason

‘Cause our re-al life friends, they don’t get the fan thi-ing
From Star Wars to X-Files to Lord of the Ri-ings
No one can wait for the ci-i-tadel,
But in the meantime we have

JadeCon, JadeCon
JadeCon, JadeCon

It all start’d in Chicago in ni-ine-ty six
Ninety Sev’n, Princess Leia’s mom’s hotel in Vegas
Ain't been sober, since Jessa’s Bar opened in DC.

Back to Vegas where Elvis hitched Mara and Luke,
Buri’d Chewbacca at GenCon then watched the Karrdes duel
Stalked James Marsters, well maybe just Kelly and H-Lynn.

‘Cause our re-al life friends, they don’t get the fan thi-ing
From Star Wars to Buffy to Lord of the Ri-ings
No one can wait for the ci-i-tadel,
But in the meantime we have

JadeCon, JadeCon
JadeCon, JadeCon

There were Ta-arts and Jedi in oh-two, we said
Moved to Indy in oh-three and sha-aved Rogue’s head
Got smoked outt’ the park at the Galactic Games and
broke Aaron while skating on ice…

2 AM and I’m still awake writing this filk
Gotta see if there’s just one more joke I can milk from
Pineapples or 12 inch dolls in kilts and boas

And I feel like I’m home when I’m here with this crowd
In Club Jade you’re with family laughing out loud
Can’t believe it’s been ten years of Mara and mayhem

'Cause our re-al life friends, they don’t get the fan thi-ing
From Star Wars to Pirates to Lord of the Ri-ings
No one can wait for the ci-i-tadel,
Sing it if you understand
