The Beatles are requisite and this is a really fun gaming-related ditty.  That said, the contest was to come up with lyrics which referred to EN World in-jokes.Tinner's "We Didn't Start the Flamewar" is a terrific list of name, and a few cute references, and I still hold that Tinner chose the song that should have been the music for the best entry.  Billy Joel's original was built for this task.  Tinner, you did a great job, even more so than most of the great entries submitted, but I didn't make your list, so I vote third place.Tough decision, but I believe that second place rightfully belongs to Drew for his "Hotel Eric Noah" entry.  Cute, clever, true to the original song, and plenty of EN World references.First place should rightfully go to me, since I'm the one issueing the totally unofficial decision which will later be over-ridden by actual votes, but as it would be a conflict of interest, and because two kind people already voted for me, and because mine was actually not the best entry, I say that first place goes to . . . *drumroll*Jack of Shadows, for "One Week."Terrific references, good meter, faithfulness to the Barenaked Ladies.  Good job, JoS!</blockquote>
