My Song About Tabletop RPGs

[Grunk]

Hey All,

I wrote and recorded a song about tabletop RPGs. It's very amateurish and lo-fidelity, but then again, so am I.

You can listen to it free streaming here:

Sean Moron - Pretend With Dice, on Fairtilizer

You can listen to my first EP (no RPG songs) on that site free

and then I have myspace.com/a1mrson

for some other (non-RPG) tracks. free

Thanks for listening and I hope you enjoy it!

Interesting.

Are the lyrics posted anywhere? (I couldn't catch some of them)

Thanks Lanefan

Here are those lyrics

Katie was wondering what's an RPG?
I said, "Hey Katie, Find out with Me.
It's an improvised story that you write with your friends
and if you never tried it I can say I recommend

*CHORUS*
Let's Roll
Let's Role
Girl You know you never gotta ask me twice
Let's Play Pretend with Dice
*CHORUS*

Gotta pencil paper and a character sheet
in about a half an hour our creation was complete
got the character to tell the kinda tale you'd like to tell
We were shooting shotguns at zombies in Hell

*CHORUS*

We were dungeon crawling slaying hordes of orcs
we don't care if the rest of the world thinks we're dorks
hacking and slashing and having a hoot
we were laughing and leveling and getting lots of loot

*CHORUS*

BRIDGE!

Oh, a world of fantasy where the only limit is our imaginations
I want to tell a better story than anyone I've ever seen
in a TV show or movie

Vampire: Virtue/Vice
Playin' Pretend with Dice
Mouse Guard Mice
Playin' Pretend with Dice
Whether it's Don't Rest Your Head
Or Monsters and Other Childish Things
We're playin' pretend with Dice

Going Over the Edge 'till a quarter to four
Cthulhu Dread Unknown Armies and More
Gumshoe and GURPS Storyteller and Fate
I got too many damn games on my plate

*CHORUS*

outro

3:16, y'know what I mean
Wild Talents, well i'll bring the talent
Whatever we're playing it don't matter to me
we're playing pretend with dice

Thanks.

We've also done some game-related songs; the link is in my sig except use /music instead of /games. (there's some non-gaming songs there too)

Nice work, there Lanefan! I like, indeed. The game stuff is quite good and I like that I Wanna Be A Punk song too! Are y'all still recording stuff?

Yep. We'll have some more stuff online eventually, once we figure out a) what it'll be (we've got about 20 hours of material done over the last 25-ish years), and b) how we can squeeze it onto the site without having to spring for more hosting space.

Wow! 25 years, that's great!
