Now this is a story all about how,

My dial got flipped turned upside down,

I'd like to take a minute just sit right there,

I'll tell you how I became the prince of the red manoeuvre.

I whistled for Epsilon Leader and when he came near,

I said take my stress and he said you've got nothing to fear,

If anything I could say that the ability was great,

But I thought nah forget it,

Yo home to wave 8.

(Just pronounce manoeuvre as manu-vayre)

to the tune of...

Don't worry, 'bout da broken wing,

cuz super glue and paint

make it be a'right.

sat upon da table,

hovering near dee edge,

three little bumps,

sent it tumbling!

spinning downward,

fragile bits o' plastic true

shattered to pieces., boo hoo hoo....

Don't worry, 'bout da broken wing,

cuz super glue and paint

make it be a'right.

****..! that thread never should have re-surfaced. now I'm hopelessly addicted, I fear :-S

okay.. I have to stop myself..!

last one for today, I promise!

"All By Myself" or „Lone Wolf means sad and lonely dinnertimes, even robots get depressed“

When I was young
I never needed anyone
And killing Horn was just for fun
Those days are gone

Flying alone
I think of other IGs known
But when I dial the telephone
A,B and C are blown'

All by myself
Don't want to fly all by myself anymore
All by myself
Don't want to shoot all by myself anymore

Hard to be sure
Sometimes I feel so insecure
And love so distant and obscure
Remains no cure

All by myself
Don't want to fly all by myself anymore
All by myself
Don't want to shoot all by myself anymore

When I was young
I never needed anyone
And killing Horn was just for fun
Those days are gone

All by myself
Don't want to be all by myself anymore
All by myself
Don't want to live all by myself anymore

*triggers dead-man-switch*

so sad... *sniff* :-/

Don't even need to re-write anything:

Don't even need to re-write anything:

technically, that's cheating. cool song, though!

Oh Soontir, Soontir, how was I supposed to know
That some wing wasn't right here
Oh Soontir, Soontir, I shouldn't have let you boost
And now you're out of sight, yeah
Show me how you want to shoot me
Tell me Soontir 'cause I need to focus now, oh because

[Chorus]
My ruthlessness is killing you (and I)
I must confess I still evade (still evade)
When I'm not with it I lose my shields
Give me a sign
Crit me baby one more time

Someone better than me make a Rush version .. or Wilco ... Or Chuck Berry!

Need a 'great thread' image thing...

Everything is awesome

We're all cool, Yorr's on my team

Imperial command of a VT!

VT, 4, 9

Have you heard the holonet everyone's talking

Life is good 'cause my VT's awesome

Lost the Death Star, there's a new oppritunity

Gonna punish some rebels for their impunity

I feel more awesome than an awesome possum

Dip Han Solo in carbonite

Kill'd off Wedge, Luke and Biggs just last night

Room to hang paintings of a cherry blossom, Everything is awesome

Stepped in rebel scum, gotta get new boots

It's awesome to win and ALL types of scum lose

Everything is better when we kill rebels together

We got Dark Side

You and I

Gonna win forever

Let's decimate forever

We're the same

I'm like you

You're like me

No shields, all guts and glory!

Everything is awesome

We're all cool on Lord Vader's team

But you know what's really awesome?

Imperial command of a VT!

Rogue squadron?, xwings

We just named two unawesome things

A Nobel thing? Kill bwings

Then what's awesome-everything

Ties, Bombers, Cogs they're awesome

LN, FO, and IN, they're awesome

Doom and Zoom shuttles, man that's awesome

Everything the Empire makes is awesome!

Everything is awesome

We're all cool if you're on the Imperial team

But you know what's really awesome?

Imperial command of a VT!

I posted this on it's own thread a few months ago. Of course if I had known this thread existed I would have posted it here. Rectifying that right now:

So as I gradually woke up this morning, I had Bohemian Rhapsody and X-wing both rolling around in my sleep-addled head. So I just went with it, and this is it.

For your amusement, I present:

Bandit Squadron Rhapsody

To the tune of Bohemian Rhapsody, by Queen (If by some weird chance you do not know what song this is, do yourself a favor and go listen to it now).

Is Star Wars sci-fi?

Or is it just fantasy?

A long time ago,

Far, far away from reality.

Lock your S-foils,

Galactic war boils ‘round me,

I’m just a Bandit, I need no sympathy,

Because I’m easy come, easy go,

Just 12 points, costed low,

Anyway the dice roll, doesn’t really matter to me,

To me…

Mothma, They killed Fat Han,

Surrounded him with a swarm,

We should have taken Corran Horn.

Mothma, Swiss rounds had just begun,

But now I’ve gone and thrown it all away.

Mothma, ooh…

Didn’t mean to block our guys,

If I’m not back in your squadron list tomorrow.

Carry on, carry on, because I don’t really matter.

Too late, my time has come,

Pulse Missiles without a lock,

Should have used me just to block,

Goodbye, everybody, I’ve got to go,

Gonna get blown up right before I could shoot.

Mothma, ooh…

I don’t wanna die,

I sometimes wish I’d never taken missiles at all.

I see a little VI Echo with a cloak

ACD! ACD! How the hell is he behind me?

5 red dice at range one,

And I bite the big one, you see.

(Chiraneau) Chiraneau,

(Chiraneau) Chiraneau,

Chiraneau with expose!

And I explo-o-o-ode.

I’m just a Bandit, nobody loves me,

(He’s just a Bandit, just thrown in as fodder,

Spare him his life, just at least until round 3!)

Evades come, evades go, will you let me roll?

Howlrunner! No, I roll my two green dice. (No evades!)

Howlrunner! I roll my two green dice. (No evades!)

Howlrunner! I roll my two green dice. (No evades!)

I roll my two green dice. (No evades!)

Never, never trust green dice,

Never trust green dice, oh-oh-oh-oh.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Oh, Mon Mothma, oh Mon Mothma (Oh Mon Mothma, let me go.)

Darth Vader has ATC and a lock on me, on me, on me!

So you think you can stress me and expect me to fly?

So you think you can crit me and leave me to die?

Oh, Soontir! Can’t expect me to fight Soontir!

Just gonna fly off, just gonna fly right off the map.

Ooh,

Ooh yeah, ooh yeah

I don’t really matter,

Anyone can see,

I don’t really matter,

Not much point in fielding poor me.

Anyway the dice roll.

Deep down in the rims close to Tattooine

(Too tired to write the whole thing now . . . .)

X-Wing Dice

(To the tune of "Piano Man.")

It's ten o'clock at Regionals; the players slowly emerge

From their oh-so-long car journeys, looking forward to another Jedi purge.

They say, "Man, can you bring me some Mountain Dew, I've been up all night long,

And I hope I can make the final cut, since the list I brought is pretty strong."

Oh la la la di-da-dum . . .

Oh pushing some spaceships . . . around.

Roll me some crits, you're my X-Wing dice, roll me some crits tonight,

Cus I'm in the mood to win the prize, and I think I've been flying alright.

I am a Rock with Simon and Garfunkel

aka I'm on a Rock with Soontir and Garfunkel

A winter's day
In a deep and dark starfield
I am alone,
Gazing from my cockpit to the path ahead
I've misjudged my path and might as well be dead,
I'm on a rock,
I'm rolling damage!

I've lost my stealth,
A fortress deep and mighty,
That none may penetrate.
I have no need of green dice; green dice cause me pain.
It's losing all my actions I disdain.
I'm on a rock,
I'm taking damage!

Don't talk of skill
I've played this game before;
It's sleeping in my memory.
I thought that I could pass there, but the rock was just too wide,
If I'd known that I never would have tried.
I'm on a rock,
Flipping a crit up!

I have my arcs
And my thrusters to protect me;
I am shielded from all your shots,
Hiding in my room, safe within my womb.
I touch no one and no one touches me,
'xcept for that rock,
as big as an island!

And a rock feels no pain;
And a baron never cries.

Fancy by Iggy Azalea. The great thing is you don't have to change any of the words just change I-G-G-Y to (B)I-G-G-S

I'm so so sorry... It had to be done...

JOHN CENA - The Time is Now (You Can't See Me)

Your time is up, my time is now
You can't see me, my time is now
It's the Phantoms, boy I'm flyin' now
You can't see me, my time is now!

In case you forgot or 'Fel' off I'm still hot - knock your shields off
My focus stack fat plus I can't turn the stealth off
The Phantoms, doin' big bid'ness, I live this
It's automatic I win this - oh you hear that Corran, you finished
An Echo, and I stay behind you fightin'
Plus I'm stormin' on you chumps like I'm Colzet and Tetran
Ain't no way you dodgin' me kid, I'm jukin' than loopin'
Plus I keep it T-lock, like I'm flyin with Jendon
I got Whisper n' Fel, competition, I got the whole list wishin'
they could fly in our mission but they gone missin'
No skill 8? Kid, your boy no ace
I got my 4-straight, I rush your face like a big-base!
In any meta I'm always better, your ship's so not
you'll never catch me in the next man's fighter
If they hate, let 'em hate, I drop ya whole squad
Lay yo' ass down, this win ain't a mod'!

Your time is up, my time is now
You can't see me, my time is now
It's the Phantoms, boy I'm flyin' now
You can't see me, my time is now!
