The Newbie.

My apologies to The Verve Pipe.

The Newbie

When we were new we knew everything
She a rogue who rarely ever watched her threat
Now we’re corpse running, sobbing with our toons on the floor
Stop a raid dead with a pricey repair debt

I can’t be held responsible
She crit twice with her mace
I won’t be held responsible
She got aggro in the first place

For the life of me I cannot remember
What made us think that we were leet and we’d be able to compete
For the life of me I cannot believe we’d ever wipe on this boss
We were merely newbies

Our main tank took a week’s vacation to forget her
His healer did a week of dailies for rep she wanted
And now he’s guilt stricken sobbing with his shield on the floor
Thinks about her now and how he never really taunted, says

I can’t be held responsible
She crit twice with her mace
I won’t be held responsible
She got aggro in the first place

For the life of me I cannot remember
What made us think that we were leet and we’d be able to compete
For the life of me I cannot believe we’d ever wipe on this boss
We were merely newbies

hey yeah
hey yeah
hey yeah

We’ve tried to wash our hands of all of this
We never talk about our lacking skill or gear
Or how we were corpse running with our toons on the floor
We fell to a boss when we tried not to slip, we’d say

I can’t be held responsible
She crit twice with her mace
I won’t be held responsible
She got aggro in the first place

For the life of me I cannot remember
What made us think that we were leet and we’d be able to compete
For the life of me I cannot believe we’d ever wipe on this boss
We were merely newbies

For the life of me I cannot remember
What made us think that we were leet and we’d be able to compete
For the life of me I cannot believe we’d ever wipe on this boss
We were merely newbies
We were merely newbies
We were merely newbies

  1. Ah, that was fun to read. XD

  2. LOL, that was great! =)

  3. OMG you are such a geek… and now you’re letting all the world see…

    This isn’t dedicated to Atania is it? It says rogue… but she doesn’t carry a mace.

  4. @Keredria: Um, I have a WoW blog. How would the world NOT already know I am a geek? ;)

    No it isn’t really about Atania since (a) she uses daggers and (b) she is excellent at managing her threat. I put this together rather quickly and just went with what fit/rhymed.

  5. Well you are geeky x 2 now.

    Yeah… I figured it better not be about Atania… otherwise I’d have to suggest you watch your back.

  6. I actually have this song as a karaoke version. It’s much more fun to sing along with as your lyrics. :)

  7. Oh and I changed “What made us think that we were leet and we’d be able to compete” to “What made us think that we were leet and able to compete.” It’s easier to sing the second one for me.

  8. @Blackavar: Yeah some tweaking may be necessary to get the beats right. When can we hear a recording?

  9. Haha, oh you slay me. I could try and finagle something with my freeware Goldwave and cheap mic I suppose. I never said I was any good though. :P

  10. @ Blackavar – You do know you’ll go down in history along with “MC raiders” LOL pretty soon someone will come up with a dancing wow char vid to go with it. ROFL

    /waits expectantly

  11. Uhhhhmmmm…..
