Help me fill in the gaps:

I rule my kingdom with an ironfist
None can resist
My battlecry

I built a horseman and chariot
Just to ?????
???????????

It's always one step behind me
It's just a game but don't remind me
When I play civilization, ????????????
From the stone stone age to the future
My preoccupation, civilization
Goes much deeper than my computer

Cuz I can be president, I can be czar
I'll create wonders, I will go far
My people are happy, cuz I say they are
And someday we enherit the stars

I'll make a treaty with my enemy
But my diplomacy
is just a ???????

I'm only waiting till he turns his back
Till I sneak attack
There's no way I'll loose

I am the master of my race
History will call me "Great"
And I'll play civilization, to resignation
From the stone age to the future
My preoccupation, civilization
Goes much deeper than my computer

Cuz I am the president, I am the czar
I create wonders and, I leave my scars
I'll raze the planet, and push it too far
But who cares, we inherit the stars

-
Majesty, I present the emissaries from Brooklyn
Yo yo yo wolla, we come in peace
We bring you a gift of... yo what have we got?
We got bridge building - yeah
A bridge from Brooklyn, most generous, we will be allies for ever
???????????????????????????
-

And now my kingdom is a smoking wreck
Oh, where the heck
Did I screw up?

I thought that nuclear missiles're cool
Mine ran out of fuel
oh, and then they blew up

And I am left with such pollution
My coverup meant ???????????

-
?????????????
It's time for some retribution
-

So much for my
Civilization
My civilized nation
?????????????????, And then I watch it burn
????????????
And future generations
Will find a stone, Saying "I will return"

I have been president, I have been czar
Look at my wonders, look at my scars
I raped the planet, and pushed it too far
But who cares, I can always restart

YOU IDIOT THE LYRICS ARE ALSO ON THE WEBSITE!!!!!! There is no need to post em or figure them out your self.

*ROFL*

Good job! Great way to start the day, and it also put a lot of the postings into a better perspective.

Colonel Kraken · October 13, 2001, 14:24

That . . is . . great. That is definitely something Firaxis should add to the game to fit in with the quarky/fun aspect of the game. Viewing the credits would be a GREAT place for it.

Simply awesome!

CAPITAL LETTERS and 6 exclamation marks are obviously needed in order to emphasize the gravity of it all.

Thank you for bringing this to my attension.

How did you know I was an idiot btw... well I guess it shows!

Wittlich · October 13, 2001, 17:31

A rather cool song! Actually, it is a pretty good piece of work, a keeper in my opinion!

Kramsib · October 13, 2001, 17:31

The first time I had listened it, I thought it was quite funny

Later I thoutht it was a great song, and now I am playing it constantly. Then I run for more songs and "The next big thing" is very good too.

Has someone told Firaxis about it???

I was thinking about promotioning this group to the top of the lists, what do you think?, they could became the musicians of a entire Civ -generation.

They are good, aren' they?

Blake · October 13, 2001, 18:35

(I dont have any more thumbs to put up)

FrostyBoy · October 13, 2001, 20:41

yeah it's good, if it was in the game somewhere, at the start or end, that would have been great

jadlakha · October 13, 2001, 20:45

I personally think the song sux. The lyrics are the only good part about the song, the rythm and beat and sound of it just plain sux. I cannot stand that guys voice either. I just cant stand hearing the song, its just so annoying.

Skanky Burns · October 13, 2001, 21:27

LOL

That songs pretty good

jadlakha: You know you'll be playing that song again, and again and again

To late for that Ive already deleted the song from my hard drive, and Ive blocked the web site using Parental controls, and I got my brother to put in the password so I can never access that web site again either. Thats how bad and terrible that song is.

I dare you too, do it and lets see what'll happen.

Skanky Burns · October 13, 2001, 22:28

Ok jadlakha, you should be getting my email in a few minutes with that song attached to it....

FrostyBoy · October 14, 2001, 01:02

Jad, if you seriously did all that. I have one word for you.

Pathetic

Sarxis · October 14, 2001, 01:05

After listening to this song for the 5th time, I realize just how well produced it is, and how creative it is. I know its a 'joke song', but it is one of the better ones out there.

As far as balads go, I give this one an A+

knott · October 14, 2001, 05:02

It roxXxXx
