I'm wondering why,
I posted it at all,
The morning spam,
Pops up on my window,
and I can't win at all,
And even if I could it'd all be grey,
but that time I won,
It reminds me that it's not so hard,
it's not so hard,
I spammed too much last night,
got sorry's to say,
Bit it was all in vain,
I missed the thread,
and there'll be hell today,
I spammed from work again,
And even if I win,
they'll all imply that I cheated that day,
And then you choose me,
and it's not so hard, it's not so hard
and,
I want to thank you for giving me,
the best game of my life,
Oh just to win from you,
is giving me the best buzz of my life,
Press connect,
I'm home at last,
and I'm posting through and through,
Then you handed me a game,
and all I post is true,
And even if I'm accused of cheating now,
I wouldn't have a clue,
Because you chose me,
and,
I want to thank you for giving me,
the best game of my life,
Oh just to win from you,
is giving me the best buzz of my life
Meet Loki, twenty-three years old.
Fed up with life and the way things are going,
he decides to rob an SR store.
("I can't take this no more, I can't take it no more homes")
But on his way in, he has a sudden change of heart.
And suddenly, his conscience comes into play...
[pb]
Alright, stop!
Now before you walk in the door of this SR store
And try to get money out the drawer
You better think of the consequence (But who are you?)
I'm your goddamn conscience
[Sniper]
That's nonsense!
Go in and grab the money and run to one of your mates place
And borrow a damn gun, and get a whole new face
Tell them you need a place to stay
You'll be safe for days if you leave SR and stay well aways
[pb]
Yeah but if it all goes through like it's supposed to
The whole ST team knows you and they'll expose you
Think about it before you walk in the door first
Look at the store clerk, she's older than George Burns
[Sniper]
Stuff that! Do it now! Shoot that cow!
Can you afford to blow this? Are you that rich?
Why you give a damn if she dies? Are you that woman?
Do you really think she gives a damn if you have kids?
[pb]
Man, don't do it, it's not worth it to risk it! (You're right!)
Not over this stuff(Stop!) Drop the biscuit (I will!)
Don't even listen to Sniper yo, he's bad for you
(You know what Dre? I don't like your attitude..)
[Tony]
Meet No10, twenty-one years old.
After meeting an old man at a SR party,
Things start getting out of hand in the downstairs longue.
Once again, his conscience comes into play...
[Sniper]
Now listen to me whilst he was about to flee
and swearing at you, I slipped this in her drink
Now all you gotta do is ram his head into a tree
(Yo! This man nearly fifty years old
You shouldn't beat him, that's not fair)
Yo, look at me…do I look like I care? (Uh huh!)
Hit this dude right here on the spot bare
Til he passes out and she forgot how she got there
(Man, ain't you ever seen that one movie Scum?)
What happened to that dude in jail, that ain’t fun!
(Damn, you wanna get hauled off to jail?)
Man do it, hit that man in the head and get bail..
[Tony]
Meet Grix, a seventeen years old computer worker.
After coming home from a hard day's work,
he walks in the door of his trailer park home
to find Ali has been copying his posts
[Pb]
Alright calm down, relax, start breathing .
[Sniper]
Screw that man, you just caught him cheating
While you at work he's with some dude trying to rip you off?!
Forget slitting her throat, CUT THIS MAN HEAD OFF!!!
[Pb]
Wait! What if there's an explanation for this stuff?
(What? He tripped? Slipped? Typed it by accident?!)
Alright Sniper, maybe he just went hyper
But think about your life before you get all crazy
[Sniper]
Okay! Thought about it, still wanna stab him?
Grab him by the throat, get your daughter and kidnap him?
That's what I did, be smart, don't be a fool
You gonna take advice from somebody who nearly drowned in a kids pool??!
[Pb]
What ya say? (What's wrong? Didn't think I'd remember?)
I'm gonna kill you little git!
[Sniper]
Uhhh-aahh! Temper temper!
Mr. pb? Mr.Act Aged 3.?
Mr. Head slamming on tree coming' straight at ya you better get away?
How in the hell you gonna tell this man not to be violent?
[Pb]
Cause he don't need to go the same route that I went
Been there, done that.. aw stuff it...
What am I saying? Shoot em both Grix, where's your gun at?
> You scum, 'Nator! I was gonna do Half the World Away!
AAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHA
Sorry, that was just my impression of A.I.
It doesn't really work just on text though.
I remember when SR was young
Me and Tony had so much fun
Making topics and replying
Had an old gold notable and a name of my own
But the biggest kick I ever got
was doing a thing called the spammers block
While the other members were spamming Round the Clock
we were reporting posts quite a lot
Well SR is something shocking
when your fingers just can't keep still
I never knew me a better time and I guess I never will
Oh those late nights
when SR got a little out of site
and the no one posting
But the hours went by and the forums just died
Tony went and left us for some site
Long nights crying by the old board
dreaming of my GADS and my old blue name
But they'll never kill the thrills we had
burning up to SR
Learning fast as the weeks went past
we really thought that SR would last
SR, SR, SR, SR, SR, SR, SR
RBS and the Breaking Voice Singers - Stuck as a Newbie
I won a game
For talking on these boards
But there's nothing you can post there,
That they haven't already heard
I'm just trying to write
A decent story
And a wholesome topic
For that company
I never won for being a fool,
But tony look at you
You've stood up straight
Given out free games,
These posters are going nowhere
You've got to get yourself together
You just won on some forums
And now you can't get out of them
Don't say that later you'll be Regular
Now you're stuck in a Newbie role
And you can't get out of it
I will not forsake
The posts that you bring
The threads you filled with fireworks
They won you nothing
I am still addicted
To the forums you brought to me
I read through your views
Through your eyes I can see
And you are such a fool
To cheat like you do
I know it's tough
But you can't win enough
Of the games you really need now
My, oh my
You've got to get yourself together
You just won on some forums
And now you can't get out of them
Don't say that later you'll be Regular
Now you're stuck in a Newbie role
And you can't get out of it
I was on a high, not half asleep
The reviews were good,
till you knew how to cheat
I wasn't winning, but I was a fool
It was a hard copy and paste, for nothing at all
You've got to get yourself together
You just won on some forums
And now you can't get out of them
Don't say that later you'll be Regular
Now you're stuck in a Newbie role
And you can't get out of it
And if the night runs over
And if the forums won't last
And if our story should falter
Along the contributing pass
And if the night runs over
And if the forums won't last
And if our story should falter
Along the contributing pass
It's just a game
This time will pass
All, my life, the feeling
I’ve hungered for a game a long,
Lonely time, Time goes by so slowly
And SR can do so much
Have I yet won?
I need a game.
I need your game.
Tony sent a game to me.
Great games flow to my house, to my house
To the open arms of the me.
Great games fly, straight to me,
Straight to me.
I'll be playing them, wait for me.
All, my life, the feeling
I’ve hungered for a game a long,
Lonely time, Time goes by so slowly
And SR can do so much
Have I yet won?
I need a game.
I need your game.
Tony sent a game to me.
Go SR!
oh yeah!
oh yeah!
Go SR!
YEAH!
