*(intro; fogger on) *
Dear Mr. Parody, post us a tune.
Something to make us all happy.
Spoof anything to take us out of this gloom.
Write a song; make it long, but not crappy.
You are the one who can make us all glad.
By doing that – we’ll break out in cheers.
We know you’re mad so post a Straight Dope ballad.
We wouldn’t say you wasted all those beers.
(really cool guitar solo)
Dear Mr. Parody, post it here soon.
Something that’s cool and not rap-py.
Choose anything, cuz we know you’re a loon.
Filk a song, make it rock, not so sappy.
You are the guy who can make us roll eyes.
And knowing that will help break down our fear.
So let’s have a blast now get off of your ass.
Cuz I’m the one who paid for you all last year.

Ignorant Guy.
*Sung to the tune of ** American Pie ** *
by Don McLean
Performed by meek [/right]
*(lights dim, meek sits at the piano; plays intro) *
A long, long time ago…
I can still remember
When the posters used to make me laugh.
And I knew if I had awhile,
That I could make those people smile
And, maybe, they’d not report me to the staff.
But every Pit thread made me shiver
With every reply I’d deliver.
Board wars I’d hate the most;
I couldn’t read one more post.
I can’t remember if I cried
When I read about his wounded pride,
Then something riled me deep inside
The day amuuuuuuusement died.
So bye-bye to the ignorant guy.
The board levy was too heavy,
So the dummy said bye.
And his good ole boys were left wondering why.
Singin’, “this’ll be the day he says bye”.
“This’ll be the day he says bye.”
So when push then comes to shove,
Do you put your faith in mod above,
If the Cecil tells you so?
Do you believe in sock ’n troll?
Can music save your member soul?
And can you teach me how to type real slow?
Well, I know that you’re a little dim
`Cause I saw you postin’ on a whim.
You won’t cough up your dues.
Ya don’t dig those message board blues.
You’re a lonely teenage dumb-ass schmuck
With the IQ of a hockey puck,
And we kept asking, “what the fuck?”
The day amusement died.
We started singin’,
Bye-bye to the ignorant guy.
The board levy was too heavy,
So the dummy said bye.
And his good ole boys were left wondering why.
Singin’, “this’ll be the day he says bye”.
“This’ll be the day he says bye.”

Help me get away from this hell.
I want to pit you like an animal.
I want to feel you burning inside.
I want to pit you like an animal.
Your whole existence is flawed.
You can be so fucking odd!
(Spectacular laser light show)
You don’t help my information.
You can shove that link that you bring.
You can shove that reference to sheep,
You can shove most everything.
Help me.
Tear down your reasons,
Help me.
Your socks I can smell!
Help me.
You think you’re perfect.
Why not pick on somebody else?
I want to pit you like an animal.
I want to feel you burning inside.
I want to pit you like an animal!
Your whole existence is flawed.

Post on the Dope All Day

Performed by lieu [/right]
*(really far out kazoo and organ intro) *
I don’t want to lurk
I want to post on the Dope all day.
I just want to play
Just want to post on the Dope all day
Ever since I was a tiny boy
I looked for a website
For me to enjoy
I found the Dope and my old keyboard, man
I bang on that thing ‘til I got
Blisters on my hand
because
I don’t want to lurk.
I want to post on the Dope all day. (Yes I do)
I just want to play
Just want to post on the Dope all day
When I’m at work - I think its so cool
To tell the board that my boss is a tool.
He caught me posting on the Dope at my desk.
Now my firewall says its now blocking my access.
I don’t want to lurk.
I want to post on the Dope all day.
I just want to play.
Just want to post on the Dope all day.
(Totally bitchin’ bass solo)
(Repeat Chorus)
(Listen to this)
Every day when I get home from work
I feel so frustrated
My boss is a jerk.
I pit my boss and said I wish he was dead.
I see him join and then reply to my thread.
(Everybody!)
I don’t want to lurk
I want to post on the Dope all day.
I just want to play
Just want to post on the Dope all day
I can do this all day…

Ya post 'bout things that nobody cares
Ya wearin’ out topics nobody shares
I’m callin’ you lame but I wanna make it clear
That it’s meant as a joke and not said with a sneer. :rolleyes:

Well I got good news - this really makes my day
Cuz’ we got one lookin’ like it gives a BJ. :o

Caught up in a pit thread smiley war
The moddy said I took it just a little too far.
You’re yelling me things in a mad reply.
You can’t pit me ’cause the thread done died.
Yes it did.
Wish there was a smiley for kickin’ your ass.
One vomitin’ or drinkin’ from a glass.
Talk about something and so we all understand,
Add sweet emoticons an’ I’ll be eating from your hand.

*(lights dim, meek sits at the piano; plays intro) *
Come out good people, don’t let me wait,
Your pity reply’s coming much too late.
Aw I’m starting to think it’s me that you hate.
My threads folks seem to shun.
Well they showed me a forum, told me to stay.
I posted a boob and they locked it away.
But they never told me the price that I’d pay,
For shit that I might have done.
Only my threads die young.
That’s what I said.
Only my threads die young.
Only my threads die young.
I might’ve heard that you are a dangerous crowd.
My post count party wasn’t allowed.
Was my CAPS LOCK sounding a bit too loud?
But replies never seem to come.
So come on good people show me a sign
Send me a message and type out a line.
So post a reply and get off your behind
Do my threads burn like the sun?
Darlin’ only my threads die young.
(woah woah woah woah woah )
I tell ya, only my threads die young.
Only my threads die young.
I got a nice cite moddy and a web site confirmation!
Oooo I got a brand new soul.
Mmmm, it’s a thread of gold.
But my sources - they didn’t give me quite enough information.
Hope you didn’t count on me
‘Cuz I was quoting from my memory
(oh woah woah)
They say there’s a reply for those who will wait.
Just post anything and I’ll say it’s great.
Is my thread a winner? Will it drop like a weight?
The winners are much more fun.
You know that only my threads die young.
Oh woah baby yeah
I tell ya
Only my threads die young. (x2)
(best sax EVAR!)
You say the mods told you all I give is bad information!
Wow, did they ever swear at me!
Now there’s not a prayer for me. (Oh no no)
Come out good Dopers and don’t let me wait,
Bump up my threads before its too late
I’ll remember to post dope that is straight.
But the post count remains at one.
You know that only my threads die young.
