SONG OF THE WEEK ---> [jan.26.2002]

[Robby O]

Ladies and gentlemen, in an attempt to introduce something new, entertaining to the FIRST threshold, and keep my mind going at the same time, here's the SONG OF THE WEEEEEK!!! Anyone who spent time around me at kickoff knows that I spent almost the entire weekend just spoofing songs on the spot, except changing the lyrincs to fit FIRST. I've written the majority of them down, and whether finished or not, they will be when I post them in SONG OF THE WEEK!!! Each week a new song, so feel free to PM me a song you would like to see spoofed or perhaps a song idea, and I'll see what I can come up with. So, without further ado, here's the first FIRST SONG OF THE WEEK!!!

TITLE: Motor, Coolant, Burn

SPOOF OF: Fire, Water, Burn

BY: The Bloodhound Gang

about: Being a FIRST figurehead

SUNG BY: Woodie Flowers (When I make the Flash music video, ::HINT::HINT:

NOTES: Just a word of warning that the original song DOES have explicit lyrics, however I have tamed it into an interesting piece about being a FIRST figurehead. Just want to let all those know before downloading the song from the web and potentially getting into trouble with the parents, or for those offended by such material. I also did want to say that I started this song completely off the top of my head at the Kickoff, finishing the entire first verse there, then spending a bit more time on the second. Hope you enjoy!


The Bots, The Bots, The Bots are on fire (x3)
We don’t need no coolant
Let the drill motors burn
Burn drill motors, burn

Hello my name is Woodie
And I’m a tall white guy
I participate
in robot games
Intro them on a dime

When I’m walking down to curie field
I get mobbed by large crowds
To sign autographs
why can't the staff
Keep them unaround

But if I am not kind
And I do not sign
Then what is the point
Of this here joint
We all like to call first

It is to inspire
Though I do perspire
When at nationals
In Disney World
The bots are on fire

The Bots, The Bots, The Bots are on fire (x2)
We don’t need no coolant
Let the drill motors burn
Burn drill motors, burn

You know my buddy kamen
He’s the one who started first
Its because he sees
a world where we
don’t think science is worse

than a game of tackle football
or some other silly sport
where a bunch of guys
dress like their wives
for the team they support

why do people stay home
watching stick swingers hit stones
when they could get up
on off their butts
to achieve something higher

like cheer a team the help build
when it’s on the field
hoping no circuits crossed
or it’s a loss
when their bot catches fire

The Bots, The Bots, The Bots are on fire (x2)
We don’t need no coolant
Let the drill motors burn
Burn drill motors, burn

Ooo, Ooo, Cmon robot people
Ooo, Ooo, Raise the floppies in the air
Ooo, Ooo, Cmon bot people
Ooo, Ooo, Drive em like you don’t care

Very nice, although you never mentioned that he wears a vest full of pins...

And I'm the one who throws that thought in, go figure.

You like flames, don't you?

[Anton Abaya]

Hello my name is Woodie
And I’m a tall white guy

He's WHITE?!?!?!?

[Robby O]

It's a song and it rhymed. I could always have put:

Hello my name is woodie
Sha na na na ny ny

And, um, yeah, I spose. The flames thing just sorta fit in with the "Fire, Water, Burn" so I went with it. Just how improv goes. Any song suggestions for next week???
