Let's make lots of credits - By the Pet Ship Boys.

I've got the guns, you've got the bombs
Let's make lots of credits
You've got the routes, I've got the speed
Let's make lots of...

I've had enough of scheming and trading 'round with jerks
My Cobra's parked outside, I'm afraid it doesn't work
I'm needing a copilot, someone who gets things fixed
Ask yourself this question, do you want to be rich?

I've got the guns, you've got the bombs
Let's make lots of credits
You've got the routes, I've got the speed
Let's make lots of...

You can tell I've got the skills, I studied at Leesti
Top of my class in flightschool, learnt on a BBC
I can program in the navplan, choose the perfect time
If you've got the hydrogen, I have got the crime

Oh, there's a lot of tasty cargoes
If you know when to take them, you know?
There's a lot of tasty cargoes
If there aren't, you can make them
Make or break them

I've got the guns, you've got the bombs
Let's make lots of credits
Let's make lots of credits

You can see I'm single-minded, a pirate's life for me.
How'd you feel about it, come and take a trip and see?
I'm needing a copilot, regardless of expense
Think about it seriously, you know it makes sense

Let's
(Got the guns)
Make
(Got the bombs)
Let's make lots of credits
(Ooh credits)

(Let's)
You've got the bombs
(Make)
I've got the guns
Let's make lots of credits
(Ooh credits)

I've got the routes
(Got the routes)
You've got the speed
(Got the speed)
Let's make lots of credits
(Ooh credits)
Credits...
 
I know Darren Grey has already used it, but I also wrote something to the tune of Fresh Prince:

Code:
Now, this is a story all about how
My life got flipped-turned upside down
And I'd like to take a minute
Just sit right there
I'll tell you how I became the prince of a star called Altair

On the poor farms of Riedquat born and raised
On the frontier was where I spent most of my days
Chillin' out maxin' relaxin' all cool
And all shootin some pirates outside of the school
When a couple of Feds who were up to no good
Started making trouble in my neighborhood
I got one little bounty and my mom got scared
She said 'You're movin' with your auntie and uncle in Altair'

I whistled for a transport and when it came near
The license plate said fresh and had a decal on the wing
If anything I could say that this ship was rare
But I thought 'Nah, forget it' - 'Yo, homes to Altair'

I docked up to the station about 7 or 8
And I yelled to the pilot 'Yo homes smell ya later'
I looked at my kingdom
I was finally there
To sit on my throne as the Prince of Altair
 
The original for the one person who's never heard of this song http://youtu.be/w1FgpBxXho4

So here's one for you pirates out there
(I didn't change much because the original lyrics seemed to fit so well)

We could have been anything that we wanted to be
Don't it make the newbies sad?
That we decided, to go pirating
We became the best at being bad.

We could have been anything that we wanted to be
With all the freedom we had
No doubt about it, we grief and we shout it
We're the very best at being bad guys

We're rotten to the core
And my congratulations no one likes you any more
Pi-rates, we're the very worst
Each of us contemptible, we're criticised and cursed
We made the big time, malicious and mad
We're the very best at being bad

We could've been anything we wanted to be
We took the easy way out
With little briefing, we mastered the griefing
Manners seemed unnecessary
We're so rude, it's almost scary

We could've been anything that we wanted to be
With all the freedom we had
With little practice, we made every black list
We're the very best at being bad
We're the very best at being bad
We're the very best at being bad
 
Best Commodities (parody of Jungle Book's Bare Necessities)

Look for the, best commodities,
the simple best commodities,
forget about the pirates in your life.
I mean the, best commodities,
that's why a pilot rests at ease,
to trade the best commodities in life.

Wherever I jump to, wherever I trade
I couldn't be fonder of profit I made
The pirates buzzin' there at me
To make some money off of me
When you follow me to the station
And take a look at the situation
Vipers come for you

The best commodities in life will come to you
They'll come to you!

Look for the, best commodities,
the simple best commodities,
forget about the pirates in your life.
I mean the, best commodities,
that's why a pilot rests at ease,
to trade the best commodities in life.

Now when you make a pew pew
Or target your crosshair
And you get a new pew
Next time beware
Don't pick the crosshair on the pew
When you pick a target
Don't pick one that's new
But you don't need to find one new
When you pick a target with a big pew pew
Have I given you a clue ?

The best commodities in life will come to you
They'll come to you!

So just try and relax, yeah cool it
Fall apart in my cargo bay doors
'Cause let me tell you something little britches
If you act like that bot acts, uh uh
You're working too hard

And don't spend your time lookin' around
For Jontybass that can't be found
When you find out you can trade without it
And go along not thinkin' about it
I'll tell you something true

The best commodities in life will come to you

Coriolis Freeze-out (Bruce Springsteen : Tenth Avenue Freeze-Out (Album Version)

Tear drops on the console
Big Michael searching for his groove
Seem like the whole Station walking pretty
And you can't find the room to move
Well everybody better move over, that's all
'Cause I'm running on the bad side
And I got my back to the wall
Coriolis freeze-out, Coriolis freeze-out

Well I was stranded in the witch-space
Tryin' a take in all the heat they were giving
The night is dark but the Station's bright
And lined with the light of the living
From the Fer-de-Lance window a transistor blasts
Turn around the corner things got real quiet real fast
I walked into a Coriolis freeze-out
Coriolis freeze-out

And I'm all alone, I'm all alone
And kid you better get the picture
And I'm on my own, I'm on my own
And I can't go home

When the change was made uptown
And the Big Man joined the band
From the dustlanes to the Gal'xy
All the little pretties raise their hands
I'm gonna sit back right easy and laugh
When Michael and the Big Man bust this Station in half,
Coriolis freeze-out, Coriolis freeze-out,
Coriolis freeze-out
 
Alan Parker would be proud....

I'll get onto that... need to tidy up some of the lyrics spoilers as they take up too many characters.. I shall get this done :D
 
Coriolis Freeze-Out (Bruce Springsteen : Tenth Avenue Freeze-Out : Live in New York Version)

You got to let 'em hear you in Leesti, man! Is there anybody really alive?

One, two, three!

One, two!

Teardrops on the console
Big Michael searching for his groove
The whole station walking pretty
You can't find the room to move
Everybody better move over, that's all
Running on the bad side
With my back to the wall, now

(Coriolis freeze-out)
Say it, Jonty!
(Coriolis freeze-out)

I was stranded in the witch-space
Taking all the heat they were giving
Cry now, the night is dark and the station's bright
And lined with the light of the living
From the Fer-de-Lance window a transistor blasts
Turn around the corner things got real quiet real fast
They hit me with a,
(Coriolis freeze-out)
Say it again
(Coriolis freeze-out)
Come on!

Well, I'm all alone, I'm all alone
Now, kid, you'd better get the picture!
I'm on my own, I'm on my own
Oh, and I can't find my way back home, now
Say!

Braben is alive!

It's all right (it's all right)
It's all right, now (it's all right, now)
It's all right (it's all right)
Yeah, it's all right, now (it's all right, now)
It's all right to have a good time
(It's all right to have a good time)
Yeah, it's all right to have a good time (it's all right to have a good time)
Oh, take me to the planet
Wash me in the water
Take me to the planet
Wash me in the water
Take me to the planet
Wash me in the water
Take me to the planet
Wash me in the water
I said, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, take me to the planet tonight
I said, I want you to, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, take me to (the planet tonight)
I said, I've got to say, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
Take me to the planet tonight

[Spoken:]
That's right. That's where I want to go tonight.
I want to go to that planet's land!
I want to find that planet of life!
I want to find that planet of love!
I want to find that planet of faith!
And that planet of hope!

Tonight I want to go to that planet of transformation
where you can go and you can be changed,
but you got to work at it.

That's right.
I want to go to that planet of sanctification
where all life's graces and blessings can fall down upon you like rain,
but you've got to work at it.
I want to go, I want to go to that planet of resurrection where everybody gets a second chance,
but you've got to work at it.
Tonight I want to go to that planet of damage healing and companionship.
I want to find that planet of joy and that planet of happiness.

I'm not bull****ting back here!

But you just don't stumble onto those things,
you don't find those places by accident.
You've got to seek them out and search after them.
And that's why we're here night after night after night after night
because you can't get to those things by yourself.
You got to have help.
But that's where I want to go tonight and I want you to go with me.
Because I need to go with you.
That's why I'm here.
And tonight I want to throw a shoot and roll exorcism!
A shoot and roll baptism!
And a shoot and roll bar mitzvah!
That's right, we're gonna do it all tonight,
everything, right here.
I want them lasers to fall down on me and set me free,
set you free.

But I stood one evening as a young man before an asteroid belt,
and I was frightened to pass through those rocks
even though I knew that on the other side the Station of life was waiting.
And there was cold beer at a reasonable price,
and there were no f***ing cellphones either.
Pizza for everybody.

But I stood paralyzed by my own fears.
And then a kindly woman called me onward,
and she said, "Son, come here, let me help you. What you need... What's your line?"
And I told her what, what I did for a living,
and then she said, "Well then, what you need is,
you need a gang. You need some help."

And that's why I'm so glad to introduce here tonight in the Cobra,
the secretary of intelligence, the dean of the University of Spatial Perversity,
Professor Josh Atack on the Graphics Tablet!

And now I want to introduce the minister of faith and friendship,
keeper of all that is righteous on Elite D,
and star of the Lave Radio show,
Little John Stabler in the editing suite!

I want to introduce the foundation of the Elite D nation,
the Manchester Terror, Mister Jonty 'Up' Campbell!

And on the keyboard, the man that brings the news night after night after night after night,
the minister of the newsletter and star of the forums,
the mighty, mighty Ashley Barley!

In Fiction, the godfather of Fiction,
the minister of heart and spirit,
the great, great, Michael Brookes!

And on the keyboard, our procedural generation God,
hailing from somewhere outside Cambridgeshire,
the minister of mystery, brother Igor Terentjev!

[Sung:]Well, now, and now, and now, brunettes are fine, and blondes are fun
But when it comes to getting a dirty job done
It takes a (flame headed woman)
Yeah, I said, I'm looking for a (flame headed woman)
We're searching for our baby (flame headed woman)
We're begging, lady, please (flame headed woman)
We're down upon our knees (flame headed woman)
In supplication (flame headed woman)
In admiration (flame headed woman)
In the Elite education (flame headed woman)
Come on!

[Geraldine:] Fellas, take a walk in toy land
[Geraldine:] Be my heroes play the part
[Geraldine:] I'm falling down hard from salvation
[Geraldine:] Come protect this china heart
[Geraldine:] Though my party dress is torn
[Geraldine:] I still walk and talk and cry and crawl
[Geraldine:] I've got no one on my arm
[Geraldine:] I am just a rumble doll

Whoa!

[Spoken:]The first lady of Elite in the Fer-de-Lance,
Miss Geraldine!

Now, last but not least!
That's right, last but not least!
I'm talking about the minister of soul,
secretary of the brotherhood,
the next Emperor of the Galaxy.

Do I have to say his name? (No)
Do I have to say his name? (No)
Say who? (David)
Say who? (David)

[Sung:]When the change was made uptown
And the Big Man joined the band
From the dustlanes to the Gal'xy
The little pretties raise their hand
I'm gonna sit back right easy and laugh
When Michael and the Big Man bust this station in half, hey!

(Coriolis freeze-out)
Say it again!
(Coriolis freeze-out)
One more time!
(Coriolis freeze-out)
Say it again!
(Coriolis freeze-out)
Everybody form a line
(Coriolis freeze-out)
Everybody form a line

I said, (yeah), say, (yeah), say, (yeah), say, (yeah), say, (yeah), say, (yeah), say, (yeah), say, (yeah), hey, (yeah), hey, (yeah), hey, (yeah), hey, (yeah), say, (yeah), say, (yeah)

Whoa!
Oh yeah, it's all right, now

And it's all right, (it's all right)
It's all right, (it's all right)
It's all right, (it's all right)
It's all right, (it's all right)
It's all right, (it's all right)
It's all right, (it's all right)
Say it's alright, now, (it's all right)
Say it's all, say it's all right

[Spoken:] The Elite D Band! The Elite D Band! The heart-stopping, earth-shocking, earth-quaking, heartbreaking, air-conditioner-shaking, history-making, legendary Elite D Band!

Right to you!

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, save me somebody!
 
Awesome stuff so far! :cool:

Not a very creative writer myself, but I do see a need for a trumble themed song and some pÿthon love. :rolleyes:

edit:
hmm. how about Ohm by Kraftwerk but with "Ohm. Sweet Ohm." replaced by "Roam, ´Leet, roam!"
Just about too much lyrics for poor harmless me. ;) ...may be Zooom, leet zoooom.

Griefer

TO the tune of Little Shop of Horrors 'Dentist'

When I was younger, just a bad little kid,
My mama noticed funny things I done,
Like using grans laptop to download my ****
I'd use lots of hack tools, until break of dawn
I'd find a newbie player and then make him rage quit
That's when my mama said

[Backing Singers]
What did she say?

[ORIN]
She said, "My boy, I think someday
You'll find a way
To make your natural tendencies pay
You'll be a greifer
You have a talent for in folks off
Son, be a greifer
People will beg you to just go ****** off
Your temperament's wrong for a trader
And mining would suit you still less
Son, be a greifer
You'll make a big mess

[BAckers]
Here he is, folks the greifer of the pack
Watch him take out that noob
Oh, my god!
He's a griefer and he'll never ever be any good
Who wants their cargo taken by this bad man?

[Noob]
Hold on wait! I’ll give it all!

[ORIN]
it’s too late. You have to die. here I come!
I am your griefer

[Noob]
Goodness gracious!

[ORIN]
And I enjoy the career that I picked

[Backers]
Really love it

[ORIN]
I am your griefer

[Noob]
Flippin killed me

[ORIN]
And I get off on the pain I inflict

[backers]
Really love it

[ORIN]
I thrill when I kill me a Noobie

[backers]
A Noobie

[ORIN]
It's swell though they tell me I'm maladjusted
And though it may cause my game friends distress,
Somewhere, somewhere in heaven above me
I know, I know, that the Braben’s proud of me
Oh, Braben!
'Cause I'm a griefer and a success
Say please....

[noob]
pleease!

[ORIN]
Say please!

[noob]
PLEEEASE!

[ORIN]
Say PLEEEASE!

[noob]
PLease!

[ORIN]
Now die!
