I was sure this had been done before, but when I checked the archives,
I didn't see it.

Some of the lines aren't perfect--maybe a syllable or two either way.
Still, it's pretty close.

R.A.F.O. (Y.M.C.A by the Village People)

Young man, reading the Wheel of Time
I said young man, it's a story sublime
I said young man, lots of words for your dime
It's a fascinating story

Young man, ideas come; I ask you
Before posting, please check the FAQ
What else you do, please do not ask RJ
Cause you know what he's gonna say:

Chorus:

You know he'll tell you to R-A-F-O
You know he'll tell you to R-A-F-O
You can scream, rant, and rave
You can yell, you can shout
He'll tell you to Read And Find Out...

You know he'll tell you to R-A-F-O
You know he'll tell you to R-A-F-O
Just don't bother to ask
'Cause he ain't gonna say
He'll torment us in every way...

Young man, found out who killed Asmo?
With the choices, are you sure that you know?
Was it Slayer, or Lanfear that big ho?
Do we really want to wonder?

Young man, Daughter of the Nine Moons
Is a Seanchan, as we'll find out real soon;
The Wheel story, is it taken from Dune?
Just do not ask Robert Jordan

Chorus

Young man, now my song's gonna end;
Have I made this clear enough now, my friend?
All the answers will be tied up and then
We can understand the story

Young man, now it's time to depart
I said, young man, please have a kindly heart,
If your ideas are exceedingly smart
Do not ask the one Creator...

Chorus to fade

And no, I have no clue how to make an R or an F with my arms.
