If this was to win (not being big headed), I would expect Lguana to sing it the Bee Gees way, can Lguana reach that high pitch voice note? It would be a laugh to hear Lguana try. LOL

Storming through the forums like my name was Pro Evo
When I’m Writeing out posting in sr
As a newbie, I was a kid and no one knew me by
name.
I trashed my own topic party cause no body
came.
I know I’m not the one you thought you knew
back in PS2
Never going, ever posting up when we had to.
Is it attention that we crave don’t tell us to
behave,
I’m sick of always hearing act my age
I don’t want to waste my time becoming a casualty of SR.
I’ll never fall in line
Become a victim of your spamming
And back down.
Because you don’t
Know us at all we laugh when old jats fall.
But what would you expect with a conscience so
small.
Heavy gamers and console warers it’s how we were
raised.
spammers and pr*ts were the ones that we praised
Cause we like having fun at other peoples
expense and,
Shouting at people is just a minor offence then,
It’s none of your concern, I guess I’ll never learn.
I’m sick of being told to calm down
I don’t want to waste my time
And become a casualty of SR
I’ll never fall in line
Become a victim of your spamming
And back down.
Don’t count on me, to help you all out.
Don’t count on me, to give you a shout
Don’t count on me, it’s the war your missing
Count on me, cause Ill keep posting!!
Well I’m a no goodnick lower middle class poster,
Back packed and I don’t give a about gamecube
You be standing on the corner talking all that
power
But you don’t make sense from all the gas you be
huffing.
Then if the topic get no replies
You’re on the hit list wanted.
I like songs with distortion, to play in proportion.
The doctor i should destroy my console
I don’t want to waste my time
And become a casualty of you lot
I’ll never fall in line
Become a victim of you lot
And back down.
Waste my time with them
Casualty of SR
Waste my time again,
Victim of your spamming
And back down. ???????
