Geek Song Parody: A Virtual World
As you can see, I’ve embedded it now in my blog posts because I’m thinking of YOU, dear readers. 🙂
This is the first parody song I did, and I grabbed a friend of mine to do the voice. She encouraged me to write more and more songs, and so you can blame her for all the posts I put up about my geek music. 🙂 Her voice is beautiful though, and she also did a song a week challenge for a year. She’s crazy. 🙂
It’s a parody of Aladdin’s “A Whole New World“.
Progress with my CD
My 10th anniversary CD is going slower than I like. I will post more songs from the CD on here, but last night, I couldn’t do anything. I’m tired. I’ve been up till almost 1:30am every night, either goofing off on here, in chat rooms, or working on music. And last night, I couldn’t do internets anymore.
I watched TV for two hours. This may not seem all that strange to you, but I don’t watch TV. I can’t sit still long enough without the desire to click a mouse.
I have only ten more days to write a couple of songs, and I’m tired. What makes it harder is that I have to do it when the wife isn’t around to hear me sing. I try to do it late at night so she can’t hear.
A Virtual World Lyrics
I can show you a world
Shiny, pixely, splendid
Tell me, princess, now when did
You last love the game you played.
I can open your eyes
3D graphics a wonder
Watch me as I fight and plunder
When I do this raid!
A virtual world
With many different camera views
You get to play a role
Maybe taunt a troll
It’s really not demeaning.
A virtual world
It’s baffling this is what you choose
And when I see it here
It’s crystal clear
I won’t go to this virtual world with you.
It’s not so bad just look what you can do!
Unbelievable time
Wasted here I am reeling
As you sit there revealing
You’re a really nerdy guy
A virtual world
Watch me sit here and grind
It’s very boring don’t you see
Social life – it don’t matter
I find this all bizarre
We’ve come so far
Don’t go back to what you used to be.
A virtual world
This is not a surprise
With new quests daily to pursue
As you sit and get fatter
Not getting anywhere
Now let’s be fair
I want to/won’t share this virtual world with you…
A virtual world
A virtual world
That’s where we’ll be
But not with me
An online space
A useless place
For you and me.
