*with sincere apologies to Billy Joel
What's the matter with the dice I'm rolling?
"Can't you tell 3d6 is moot?"
Maybe I should buy me Unearthed Arcana?
"Welcome back to the Egg of Coot.
Where have you been hidin' out lately, dude?
You can't game with us till your rules are improved."
Everybody's talkin' 'bout the new edition
Funny, but it's still D&D to me,
What's the matter with the B/X game?
"Can't you tell that it's out of style?"
Should I get a 1e D-M-G?
"Are you gonna play 'Dragons of Light'?
Nowadays you can't be too sentimental
Your best bet's a true d20 elemental"
Next wave, 4e ways, Basic days, Advanced plays;
It's still D&D to me.
Oh, it doesn't matter what they say in the rulebooks
'Cause it's always been the same old scene.
There's a new ed. in town
But you can't get down except in Dragon magazine...
Aimed at your average teen
How about Oriental Adventures
in Essentials for Fourth ed?
"You could really be a current fanboy
If you just do what we said.
Don't waste your money on a new set minis,
You get more gaming with a game that won an Ennie."
Next phase, 4e ways, Basic days, anyways
It's still D&D to me
What's the matter with the crowd around my table?
"Don't you know that they're out of touch?"
Should I try to be a RBDM?
"If you are then you kill too much.
Don't you know about the new edition, honey?
All you need are books and a whole lotta money."
It's the Next phase, Basic slave, 4e craze, anyways
It's still D&D to me
Everybody's talkin' 'bout the new game
Funny, but it's still D&D to me!
