VERSE 1:
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
CHORUS:
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
Now that 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)
VERSE 2:
Unbelievable time
Wasted here I am reeling
As you sit there revealing
You're a really nerdy guy
CHORUS:
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

This album is a lot of fun with covers of an already heterogenous work by a group of artists with quite different musical styles. It's actually what I can thank for getting me back into TMBG. Pick it up and support charity! Eliot Lash
