As we near the end of beta and plunge headlong towards gamma, I though I would put up an ode to the game, shamelessly stolen and to the tune of Nickelback's 'Rockstar'
I'm through with waiting in line
At hubs I'll never get in
I've got 1 minute on my mission
I'm never gonna win
This run didn't turn out
Quite the way I want it to be
(tell me what you want?).
I want a brand new asp
Full of gimballed guns
And a cargo hold to play baseball in
And a big shield bank
Well maybe two or three.
(so what do you need?).
I need a big fat 'roid with no resource limit
With lots of gold and silver in it
Gonna join the mega rich club, some slaves are gonna rub my feet.
(been there, done that).
I wanna get lost out there among the stars
Get my name on Galnet, 'cos I'm real hard
Somewhere between Norris and Arnie is fine by me.
(so how you gonna do it?).
I'm gonna trade my way to fortune and fame
I'd even buy a painjob and backer name.
(chorus)
'Cause we all just wanna be big space stars
Live in the Sol system, drinking at the bars
The slaves come easy and the drugs come cheap
We'll all stay skinny and we'll never sleep
And we'll, hang out amongst the stars
With David B and his sick jumpers
Every good gold diggers gonna join us there
All us silver foxes with the great grey hair
(and well)
Hey, hey, I wanna be a space star
Hey, hey, I wanna be a space star
I wanna be great like Psykokow without the hassles
Hire eight wingmen that like to beat up oles
Buy an advanced scanner so I can 'splore the stars for free
(I'll have the quad lasers, haha)
I'm gonna kit my ship with some grade A modules
Get a pirates hull down and grab his nodules
Gonna get a burst laser thats gonna blow his hatch for me
(so how you gonna do it?)
I'm gonna trade my way to fortune and fame
I'd even buy a painjob and backer name.

With David B and his sick jumpers
Every good gold diggers gonna join us there
All us silver foxes with the great grey hair
And we'll hide out in our private groups
With the latest information from Galnet news
I can get you anything if I'm cold a while
Everybody's got a smuggler on speed dial
Hey, Hey, I wanna be a space star
I'm gonna snag that bounty thats on my sensors,
Gonna pop his canopy and make him tenser
I'll get washed up EvE players on my wings
We'll sink 'em all and then steal their things
