New Glitch song - Please Let Me Go Back to Groddle

Ok, I'm waiting for the doors to open, sitting forlornly at my keyboard, so I thought I'd record this thing I was working on at the weekend. Quick and rough, and the lyrics aren't as polished as I'd like (needs moar scansion!)

You can listen here and the lyrics are below.

(Oh - the music is by me this time. Not quite up to that Woody Guthrie standard I'm afraid.)

Please Let Me Go Back to Groddle
 
Oh, please let me go back to Groddle,
Let me carry my pick down a mine
Oh please let me stroll through those forests,
I can't bear to see the Game Closed sign.

I just want to get up one more level,
Just milk one more grouchy butterfly,
Oh, please let me go back to Groddle,
Let me cheer as the conga goes by.

I just want to show off my new outfit,
My new ears and the size of my nose,
I'll be waiting right here at my keyboard
I'll rejoice when the Game Closed sign goes

Cos the game's going to come out of beta
The game's going to start up for real
And I'll have to try not to play Glitch all the time
And eat sandwiches for every meal.

We'll all start with no stuff and no currants,
Not a skill to our name, and no bear
But we'll party like Gli-itchmas anyway
Hand out food just to show that we care.

Cos the game's going to come out of beta
The game's going to start up for real
And I'll get my Glitch on every evening for sure
I'll impress all the Giants with my zeal

So please let me go back to Groddle,
Being Glitchless just makes me pine
Let me party with Glitchen in Groddle,
Take down that old Ga-me Closed sign.

  • Bendigedig!

    That was awesome. 

    "And I'll have to try not to play Glitch all the timeAnd eat sandwiches for every meal."

    Was my favourite bit.  Made me laugh out loud. :D

  • Meridian - I added the bit about the sandwiches because that's what *happened* during the last long test. Fortunately I live on my own so wasn't subjecting anyone else to the same food monotony...

  • I love it~ Your accent makes everything about this song better. Not that it wasn't already awesome. :)

  • DaveJohn - I forget I have an accent. Round here I speak, you know, normally. :) (I'm southern England, in case anyone was wondering.)

  • WONDERFUL!!!!!! Love this! They should honestly use this song for some sort of advertisement. Just a few lyric tweaks and it doesn't have to be about the game being closed, but about just wanting to play in general.

  • Have to say that I forgot, when writing these lyrics at the weekend, that I don't *have* a pick at the moment. Only a pickle. But that doesn't scan. Hmph.

  • Aaaah, love it, and for the record, I think I love your voice more and more every time I play one of these songs. C': <3

    Also I didn't place the accent until you commented on it/explained. This might mean that I spend a lot of time talking to my Brits, although there hasn't been much chance for that lately. It is a sad thing.

  • Ok, I am a complete sad case. Theremina Lute now has a tumblr account for posting songs and odd Glitchy thoughts. I am going to try to keep it in character as much as possible :)

    It's at theremina-lute.tumblr.com.

  • OH MY GOD - The hairs on my everywhere just stood up. This song is amazing!
    Posted 15 months ago by Messy Monster Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Oh, yeah, forgot to ask. When do we get a PLMGBG music block? :)

    I'd pay thousands of currants for one of those. I have the song open in another tab and I play it over and over whether I'm in the game or not. Once again, three cheers for Ms/Mr (Fairly certain you're a woman from your voice, but it's best to cover all the bases. :)) Lute.

  • beautiful song! As a Brit living in Canada it's lovely to hear some English Folk sounding songs. Oh England how I miss thee (but not as much as Groddle).

    :)
