With apologies to Pat Benatar...a spinning song

(Does this count as spinning fanfic? Because I might have ALL THE IDEAS about spinning fanfic. Curious about what breaking dye is? It's when the dye "accidentally" breaks down into into its component colors. Check out this blog article for an explanation of doing it on purpose.)

Dye Breaker
[sung to the tune of "Heartbreaker" by Pat Benatar]

Your Craft is like a tidal wave
spinning off of your thigh
drowning me in your fiber
(stash size left unsaid)

You're the right kind of spinner
to release my inner crafter
the fiber artist winner
you know that you were born to be

You're a dye breaker
yarn maker
wool taker
don't you mess around with me
You're a dye breaker
yarn maker
wool taker
don't you mess around with me, no no no

Your yarn it set my soul on fire,
burnin' out of control!
You taught m the ways of creating
new ideas are elating!

You're the right kind of spinner
to release my inner crafter
the fiber artist winner
you know that you were born to be

You're a dye breaker
yarn maker
wool taker
don't you mess around with me
You're a dye breaker
yarn maker
wool taker
don't you mess around with me, no no no

... crap, now I want to write a nested set of fairytale retellings entitled "Spinning Yarns". Thanks :-p

GO FOR IT. :D

I am thinking Rumpelstiltzkin and Sleeping Beauty and Arachne and Penelope... and obviously that would be retelling of Greek myth rather than just fairytale, but uh.
