A New Game (The Solar Coroña Song)

By CaribbeanNinja, in Star Wars: Armada

Parody of "Escape" the Piña Colada song by Rupert Holmes:

I was tired of my old blues, it always was the same scan

Like a worn-out datatape, of a favorite plan

So while they all lay there waiting, I read HoloNews in bed

And in the personals column, a transmission I read

"If you like Solar Coroñas, and gettin caught in the flames

If you´re not into Minefields, and Intel Sweep is lame.

If you like winning in deployment, with a two-ship spin

I´m the blue that you've looked for, write to me, and we’ll win.

I didn't think about the old blues, I know that sounds kind of mean

But me and my old blues, had fallen into the same old dull routine

So I wrote to the Holo, took out a personal ad

And though I'm nobody´s poet, I thought it wasn't half bad

"Yes, I like Solar Coroñas, and gettin caught in the flames

Done with Superior Positions, ‘n Dangerous Territory’s a shame

I´ve got to meet you by tomorrow noon, and cut my old blues away

At a bar at Mos Eisley, where we´ll plan our next play.”

So I waited with high hopes, I put my cards on the mat.

I knew her smile in an instant, I knew in seconds flat.

It was Corellian Conflict, and she said, "Here’s your blue"

And we laughed for a moment, and I said, "I never knew"

"That I had Solar Coroñas, for gettin caught in the flames

And Navigational Hazards, has made this a brand new game,

Sensor Net and Salvage Run are cool. Armada’s shed its old skin.

You´re the blues that I've looked for, come with me, and we’ll win"

And for the uncultured:

Awesome!

Love love love this!

I will expect a live performance at Worlds.

Because we want to see CNinja sing!

now i was expecting a parody of "my sharona" lol

This needs to be recorded and included in the next IFF podcast

So I'm a little confused about how the player and Corellian Conflict are supposed to be cheating on each other in this version?

Yeah a friend and I were talking about how horrible "Escape" is. Two people trying to cheat on each other...it is just awful.

In this case, let's just say the player was ready to leave his blues...but the Corellian...wait...why tf am I explaining this it is a stupid song! :)
