GET A LIFE
- caravan ray

Well I,
I've made a discovery
I am the victim of a grand conspiracy
Little things are sent to try us, that much I concede
But for all the rest
I blame society

I blame the government, the church, the telephones and electricity
The media, the police, public servants and judiciary
The multi-nationals and the fast-food industry
Every single bastard in the world has got it in for me
But I find comfort in my anonymity

Cause there's a peace that it brings
My insignificance is a wonderful thing
I know I'm not to blame
Oh yeah my conscience is clear
I'm not a player, I'm only a pawn in the game
I know I'm not to blame

I think I better write a letter to the editor and tell her that the kid's are running wild and the climate's getting wetter and the immigrants will take our jobs, just you wait and see
Just because I'm paranoid it doesn't mean that they're not after me
And I relinquish all responsibility

Cause there's a peace that it brings
My insignificance is a wonderful thing
I know I'm not to blame
Oh yeah my conscience is clear
I'm not a player, I'm only a pawn in the game
I know I'm not to blame

But I'm just one man
I do the best that I can
But when things don't turn out right
I get a scapegoat in my sight
And one thought gets me through the night

That is I'm nobody's fool
My insignificance is a valuable tool
I know I'm not to blame
Oh yeah my conscience is clear
I'm not a player, I'm only a pawn in the game
I know I'm not to blame

I know I'm not to blame
The internet is to blame
Get a life, get a life, get a life, get a life
I know I'm not to blame
Terrorists are to blame
Get a life, get a life, get a life, get a life
I know I'm not to blame
The Americans are to blame
Get a life, get a life, get a life, get a life
There's always somebody to blame

Spinlock - Get a Life

Laudate Domine
Laudate Domine
Laudate Domine
Laudate Domine


Chorus:
Don't want to get a life in heaven
Just want to live the one I know
Don't want to get a life in heaven
'Cos I'm not going to go

Cos I believe there is no heaven
And one day we will see
People don't need God,
We just need more humanity

Laudate Lorum Ipsum Dolor Sit....

Maybe you were baptised as a child
Now you are old enough to weight the facts up and decide
You know the Tooth Fairy and Santa Clause aren't real
But you make me pray to Jesus Christ at each and every meal
Every Fucking Meal.

Chorus

Hindus think you came from water,
Christians from earth
Raelians know they cloned you,
But you won't survive till birth

When I'm done you can transplant me
Or float me on a raft
Don't try to get me talking
That's not my spirit, that's a draught.

Chorus - To end.

Get A Life

Post by MC Eric B »

Get A Life by MC Eric B
============================

I face the world alone
day after day
living my life
in very geeky way

Playin' video games
going to scifi conventions
battling bad guys
in multiple dimensions

Stacks of comic books
they fill up my room
in the back of my closet
sits a Storm Trooper costume

Got tons of quarters
to bring to the arcade
sometimes I meet my friends
and action figures we trade

If I get a high score
I never enter my initials
worried I might be tracked
by some government officials

I'm proud to be nerdy
but my parents don't agree
they say I should act
more like the kids on TV

They always cut me down
so fast to criticize
giving me lots of advice
that they think is so wise

Telling me things
I don't wanna hear
things like

Chrorus
============================

Get a life
get a girl
gotta find your own place
in this world

Get a life
get a life
go get a life

============================

Now some years have gone by
made my way to college
some mistakes of my past
I will certaintly acknowledge

Never should'a joined the fan club
for Frodo Baggins
or dedicated so much of my life
to Dungeons and Dragons

Used to be a total dork
like Napoleon Dynamite
but now I got game
and my skills are tight

Chicks wanna study with me
'cause I got mental smarts
and I still kick ass
in video game martial arts

Sometimes I surf the Net
sometimes I hit the clubs
I'm cool yet geeky
just like J.D. is on Scrubs

Everything's about balance
a social high wire act
things change but stay the same
and now that's a fact

Chrorus
============================

Get a life
get a girl
tryin' to find my own place
in this world

Take a chance
seize the day
best to burn out
and not fade away

Don't fade away

============================

Try to tell me what to do?
You'd best take care of YOU.
You'd better get a life before you die.

Hanging round and talkin jive.
All you do is criticize.
You'd better get a life before you die.

(efficient wankage)

Don't you know my will is free.
Nobody owns my soul but me.
You'd better get a life before you die.

I don't know why I think of your face and I cry

You tell me that want our relationship to work out
Then you say without words that you think I am such a lout
I don't know why I think of your face and I cry

Uncomfortable silence is now all that we share
And if I should break it your eyes tell me to beware
I don't know why I think of your face and I cry

You're hurting you
I'm hurting me
We're stuck in a cycle why can't we break free
All that we offer is anguish and strife
Why do you fixate on thinking you don't have a life

Get a life
Get a life then
Get a life
Get a life then
Get a life
Get a life then
Get a...
...Fuck!

You tell me that want our relationship to work out
Then you say without words that you think I am such a lout
I don't know why I think of your face and I cry

GET A LIFE
Your Money Wasted

One day I met a girl and took her out for lunch
While we were there I saw a friend from out of town
I put her on hold so I could go say hi
And talk about wireless security
Then I looked around
And saw she was nowhere to be found
That's when I realized
I'm last in line to get a life

I called her cell phone later on and apologized
And we agreed to see a movie later that night
And on the way I saw
A mint condition Action Comics #1
I had to go inside
An hour later she called my phone
She wanted me to die
I'm last in line to get a life

She never spoke to me again
And now it's sinking in
I'm last in line to get a life
I know exactly what to do but
I'm always so preoccupied
I'm last in line to get a life

GET A LIFE

C'mon man, seriously , I got plans, I"m doing things, I'm gonna go to school, you wait, you'll see...
as soon as I ah...find my magic hammer, reach the seventh level, and free my kingdom...

I'm gonna be a like a game programmer, or like a...like a city planner...you wait man... you'll see...

YOU NEED A LIFE
You live alone, but not because you're grotesque,
You don't get paid too but you sit at a desk
You got a girlfriend but you never really met
If you type at her nicely you might make her wet
You think your cheetos are from the dairy food group
A balanced meal consists of crackers and Campbell's soup
You don't laundry and you don't comb your hair
You're way too busy solving some fucking knob's lair

I'm looking at you, just what do you do
I'm looking at you, just what do you do
I'm faster than you, it's so fucking true
I'm looking at you.... YOU NEED A LIFE

You're supposed to go to college and get a real job
But now you work at Wendy's and you dress like a slob
You blab and blab about your goals and tell me you'll start soon
Just not today cause D&D is happening this afternoon

I'm looking at you, just what do you do
I'm looking at you, just what do you do
I'm faster than you, it's so fucking true
YOU NEED A LIFE

C'mon man, go easy! Seriously ...like ...I'm just playing...


uuh..I'm 35 five... but still! I'm gonna be something, I"m gonna go places...I'm gonna travel... I plan on travelling all around the world...with my wife and my children...uh...


YOU NEED A LIFE
You live alone, but not because you're grotesque,
You don't get paid too but you sit at a desk
You got a girlfriend but you never really met
If you type at her nicely you might make her wet
You found true love with a keystroke and a mouse
If you get a fucking laptop then you wouldn't need a house
You're misdirected energy just eats you up inside
As your day slips away and your inner self slides...

I'm looking at you...
YOU NEED A LIFE.

I've planned it all in my head, and you will never know, 'till all is said
That I am gonna help you out my friend
I'm gonna get you outta that house, cause you must be a man,
you say you're no louse,
But hear me, you must transcend

CHORUS:

This sedentary
Lifestyle
You're getting very
fat, while
The world's progression
leaves you behind
Here's my suggestion
Please get a life

[Harmonizing mouth trumpets]

Pull the foil from the glass, and let some sunshine in, you're pasty, alas
You need some color on your skin
All it takes is some patience, I know you think it hard, I offer no pretense
You will fail, if you don't end

REPEAT CHORUS

[Guitar Solo]

REPEAT CHORUS(With feeling!)

Get a life

Get a LIIIIIIIIIFE!

[Indulgent guitar outro strum]
Am I rockin' hard, or hardly rockin'?

Get a Life
Performed by Ross Durand
Lyrics by Gene Martin & Ross Durand
Music by Ross Durand

I used to go straight home from work and surf on my PC
Or dream about girls while I alphabetized CDs.
No time to deal with all the games of social strife
My friends just shook their heads at me and said to get a life!

So I drove down to Best Buy, and there up on the shelf
Was a life for fifty dollars, I could get a brand new self
And for fifteen more a month it might not ever end
Now I could get a life away from all my former friends

CHORUS
I've got a life now, that they can't see.
I bought a life now, in an online community.
I've got a life now, there's no need to wait up late.
I’ll have to catch you on the flipside, the raid starts at eight.

In my new life I’m a night elf, and live inside a tree.
Yesterday we killed a dragon, just the other elves and me
My friends all laugh and shake their heads, a geek is all they see,
Cause they can't understand my joy, as I grind to seventy.

CHORUS

I spend my nights with this warrior hottie
Can’t wait to see her on the raid
But there's no way tell if she’s really a girl
Or whether she’s under age – but I don’t care

Tonight I will go questing, tomorrow farm for gold.
I could spend my life logged in, until I'm gray and old.
My in-game friends they understand, they are true friends and more,
And if they ever bother me, I put them on ignore.

CHORUS

You last heard of Ray
in the Rate of Decay
addicted to Tea
a corpse became he

HE'S DEAD

but our dear friend
didn't come to an end
when he had expired
God said "I lied."

HE LIED

so poor ray woke up
in a box he was shut
no air or sound
6 feet under ground

BURIED ALIVE

for 6 days he clawed out
his throat was gone, he could not shout
for help he tried
and suff, i mean stuff

AND STUUUUFFF

now he walks
and now he flies
got a rather nice pigeon
i tell you no lie

slightly green
smelling of chlorine
ray was not dead
HE WAS A FMECKING ZOMBIE!!!

ZOMBIE

feasting on brains,
with tea-craving pains
he had no need for a wife
he still needed to get a life

Get A Life

we've all got a lit fuse
in the back of our heads
and we can never see it
never count the threads
never feel its length
never know the cost
never understand the weight
of a day that is lost
and when it goes off
it blows a hole in the wall
in the back of the room
in the back of the room
and when it goes off
it blows a hole in us all
always feels too soon
always feels too soon
so give me air to breathe
that is what i need
pull it into my lungs
catch and release
the clock is running
from the day you begin
in this feast or famine
in this sink or swim
and the clock is running
all through the night
in this dog eat dog
in this fight or flight
we all hold on
as we walk the knife
yes we hold out hope
that we get a life
we all hold on
as we walk the knife
yes we hold out hope
that we get a life

Get A Life
by Billy's Little Trip

-verse-
You said we're coming to an end,
and it's time for better days
That little part of me that captured you,
has somehow slipped away
I've searched everywhere I know,
even underneath my head
I can't stand the way I look today,
I think I'll shave my bed
It's over

-chorus-
Get a life
You're pathetic and you're bugging me,
she said
Get a life before you ruin everything we ever had
Get a life
You're pathetic and you're bugging me,
she said
Get a life , so we can be the way we used to be

-verse-
I can't change the way I think,
but I think that I can change
It's much harder than it looks,
and it makes me want to scream, hey
I wish that part of me that's gone,
that you seem to miss so much
was a little easier to find,
or something I could touch
It's over

-chorus-
Get a life
You're pathetic and you're bugging me
she said
Get a life before you ruin everything we ever had
Get a life
You're pathetic and you're bugging me
she said
Get a life , so we can be the way we used to be

Get A Life

by Steve Durand


Life comes fast
Now I'm sitting here
With three kids and a wife
But I really can't complain
It's nice

They depend on me
And I'm shouldering the burden all alone
And I think about my dad's
Advice

Get a life Insurance policy
It will give you peace of mind
And you'll provide security
For the ones you leave behind

Bills to pay
And I'm working all the time
To make ends meet
But there isn't one cent
In the bank

Hand to mouth
It's like flying high
Without a safety net
And I've no one but myself
To thank

Get a life insurance policy
It will give you peace of mind
And you'll provide security
For the ones you leave behind

Late at night
With the children sleeping soundly
In their beds
With no worries
About anything

In my head
There's a nagging worry
That I can't control
'Cause we don't know
What the future brings

Get a life insurance policy
It will give you peace of mind
And you'll provide security
For the ones you leave behind
