Now - where's that Singalongwithmax LP, or was it Singalongamax? You need hands....
Ant-Thank you for voting me (voting me as a Notable)
It's hard for me to write the things
I want to write sometimes
There's no one here but you and me
And that guy who only visits at night
Ban the rest
We'll leave the world outside
All I've got to give to you
Are these five words when I
Thank you for voting me
For reading those posts
When I couldn't see
For getting rid of the hype
When I couldn't type
Thank you for voting me
Thank you for voting me
I never knew I had a dream
Until that dream was you
When I look into your threads
The FOG's a different blue
Cross my status
I wear no disguise
If I tried, you'd make believe
That you had believed my lies
Thank you for voting me

Thank you for voting me
Thank you for voting me
You pick my word count up when I fall down
You give me hope (for a GAD) when they count me out
If I was spamming you would tell me
And risk your own status to rescue me
Ban the rest
We'll leave the world outside
All I've got to give to you
Are these five words when I

If I Post before I sleep
at least in the morning I can read
cuz right now im as tired as jack
without the bed from catching me
now SR would be a dj spinin giving GADS all night long
and SR would be just kickin back with me playing along
and if you don’t believe in SR then go to gameplay and eb too
and while the We playing we just sit back and laugh at you
singing
If I Post before I sleep
at least in SR I can win
cuz right now on eb I can’t win jack
without the manager giving me the sack
now when most think of SR they see those pearly gates
but I looked a little closer and there’s a sign that says GAD
so if you wanna come to my SR we're all gonna have a ball
cuz every one you know is welcome and we got no gates or walls
singing If I Post before I sleep
at least in the morning I can read
cuz right now on eb I can’t win jack
without the manager giving me the sack
and then I got to SR
pulled a list that I’d been callin winners
I'm sorry friend you can not win
you got to post here that doesn’t end
your mad cuz im a reg
you teachin any classes in how to cope
I'll find a place to rest my head
I'íd rather be alone now that im not at eb
like christian hossoi way back in '87
we’ll be bustin SR wins until we get to heaven
think I really care that I missed a gameplay compo
got my education in SR posting
with all your rules you got to chill
I’m gonna post now like its a thrill
gonna post now cause I got the skills
like ant or wookiee
busting word counts
and probally get banned
I don’t care no I don’t care I don’t care I don’t care
Captain Grix and the Gameaday Queen From Mars-Ant
Hyped up for a big post
Like a gameaday but it was already chosen
A server crash with a lot of cash and a painted face
She was one of a kind
She wears a plastic crown like Cinderella
And plays games in bed
He rides the Greyhound from his hometown
When he comes around 'cause they don't let him post now
Mixed up as a milkshake
But make no mistake
They're aiming for the GADS
You and me
We're invincible together
We can be oh so brilliant, whatever
Dressed up just like Ziggy but he couldn't write console wars
Captain Grix and the gameaday queen from Mars
Share a game-tip, trading lipstick
Watching spammers for days at the diner
Holding hands, making big plans
Playing Sheepyman, he was wearing eyeliner
Another server-breaker and his longtime lucky charm
You and me
We're invincible together
We can be oh so brilliant, whatever
Dressed up just like Ziggy but he couldn't write console wars
Captain Grix and the gameaday queen from Mars
They're drunk on FOG as you can get
Getting high on games and cigarettes
Posting spam with no regrets
At least they're gonna aim fooooooooor, the game
You and me
We're invincible together
We can be oh so brilliant, whatever
Dressed up just like Ziggy but he couldn't write console wars
Captain Grix and the gameaday queen from Mars
You and me
We're invincible together
We can be oh so brilliant, whatever
We're Ant and Tony
Game and Bonus
YH and Turbo
Reaper and Iguana
RBS and Time_Warp
Dan and Snuggly
Dringo and Edgy
Here's Captain Grix and the gameaday queen from Mars
Captain Grix and the gameaday queen from Mars
Thanks for reading, Ant.
CJC - Tolerate
The future teaches you to be a winner
The present to be afraid of staff
So if I can hate Newbies
Then I can hate Notables
Bullets for your game today
But we'll try winning it all again
Reviews put from pen to paper
Turns me into a rubbish typer
And if you tolerate this
Then your games will be next
And if you tolerate this
Then your games will be next
Will be next
Will be next
Will be next
Gameaday's keeps my head down
Or is it maybe shame
At being so young and being so laim
Shaim in your win today
But I'm a pacifist
I've walked in the FOG
But not with real intent
And if you tolerate this
Then your games will be next
And if you tolerate this
Then your games will be next
Will be next
Will be next
Will be next
Will be next
And on the forums tonight an old Notable chats
With members from the winnings of his glory past
And if you tolerate this
Then your games will be next
And if you tolerate this
Then your games will be next
Will be next
Will be next
Will be next
Look for the SR necessities
The simple SR necessities
Forget about your worries and your life
I mean the SR necessities
Old SR gaming recipes
That brings the SR's necessities of life
Wherever I post, wherever I write
I couldn't be fonder of my big PS2 forum home
The newbies are buzzin' in the spamming topics
To make some flamming useless comments
When you look under the topics
And take a glance
Then maybe blow your top
The SR necessities of life will come to you
They'll come to you!
Look for the SR necessities
The simple SR necessities
Forget about your worries and your social life
I mean the SR necessities
That's why a gamer can post at ease
With just the SR necessities of life
Now when you pick a poor topic
Or a new topic
And you get bored
Next time beware
Don't pick a poor topic
When you pick a post
Try to use SR necessities
But you don't need to use them
When you pick a post by me
Have I given you a clue ?
The SR necessities of life will come to you
They'll come to you!
So just try and relax, yeah cool it
Fall apart in my PS2 backyard
'Cause let me tell you something little newbies
If you act like that FFF acts, uh uh
You're working too hard
And don't spend your time lookin' around
For something you want that can't be found
When you find out you cant live without SR
And go along not thinkin' about it
I'll tell you something true
The SR necessities of life will come to you
I'm not angry with SR and I don't think I should win, those lyrics just seemed to fit rather well.
