  • Jackass Jackass is based on the song from the Kingkiller Chronicles by Patrick Rothfuss.
    Music and most of the words by Anna Phyllis Smith
    Performed by Anna Phyllis Smith
    In the style of folk music, here are the words so you may sing along. Feel free to write more verses of your own and please share!!!
    Jackass Jackass
    I had a little donkey who just refused to work
    He wouldn’t pull his weight 'cause he was such a lazy jerk
    He said it was beneath him and he ran away to school
    To be an archaist. This donkey was a fool
    Jackass Jackass
    Running through the halls
    Distracting all the students ‘cause he’s
    playing with his
    books and ink and
    Papers. Capers
    All around the class
    No, you can’t be an arcanist
    When you’re such a stupid ass!
    One day he strolled to town from the university
    And started hee and hawing every lady he did see
    One wench she tried to ride him, said “He wasn’t very kind!"
    and "a pizzle bound to fizzle" isn’t what she had in mind!
    Jackass Jackass
    Running through the halls
    Distracting all the students ‘cause he’s
    Licking someone's
    books and ink and
    Papers. Capers
    All around the class
    No, you can’t be an arcanist
    When you’re such a stupid ass!
    Now this donkey isn’t simple, in fact he's kinda smart
    that is if you consider assery to be an art.
    He’s a a well-bred ass, you can see it by his stride!
    And for a copper penny he will let you take a ride!
    Jackass Jackass
    Running through the halls
    Distracting all the students as he
    Sucks the teacher's
    books and ink and
    Papers. Capers
    All around the class
    No, you can’t be an arcanist
    When you’re such a stupid ass!

    "You could whistle or hum it. Anyone with three fingers could play it, and if you had one ear and a bucket you could carry the tune. It was catchy, and vulgar, and mean-spirited. It spread through the University like a fire in a field.”

    Best version of this song that I've seen. This is how I picture a drunk K'vothe and Den writing it, clever but fun, simple, and just petty enough.

    @ninottorracastanyes8996 Před 2 lety +8

    I can't stop listening to this. I've found it like half an hour ago and I've already memorized more than half of it. I don't care if other versions have worked with Rothfuss or not, THIS is canon now. It's simple, it's intelligent, it's malicious, it's catchy, it's all it was meant to be. I love this so much.

    This Jackass can be brought around, it says so on his bit
    But there ain’t no girl in Imre who would lead this little tit
    He bucks and kicks and makes a scene but when he’s done he cries;
    he still ain’t got a girl to come and wipe away the flies

    It's hard to say how much I like this, and by extension, you. The tune you've created is appropriately catchy and I can totally imagine that scene where Kvothe and Ambrose are before the council, and Elodin starts singing this before dissolving into a fit of giggles. Too funny. Great job.

    This is one of my favorite versions ever. I do believe it will be the first version I will undertake to learn. I feel that the song is like tinker tanner that there can be a multitude of versions, so long as they follow a handful of the same verses and the heart of the song they are all true.
