The Lyrics
Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Horde;
I just bought a scroll of healing, it was all I could afford;
And I just fought fifty dragons, 'cause my Paladin was bored:
This game keeps going on.
(Chorus)
Glory, Glory - to the Warcraft
Hordey, Hordey - on the Orc raft
Glory, Glory – to the Warcraft
This game keeps going on.
I have seen the special classes of so many racial camps;
I can play all through the night despite my finger-numbing cramps;
I get more and more addicted as the difficulty ramps;
This game keeps going on.
(Chorus)
I have bred a ready warrior, with ancient blade of steel:
Lots of crit so when I tank I spike the damage that I deal;
I have started using verbs that years ago would not be real
This game keeps going on.
(Chorus)
I was riding on my griffon that I own just as I planned
When he saw a lady-griffon, then he threw me to the land
Lucky me, here's the collector's version map right in my hand.
This game keeps going on.
(Chorus)
I was wondering exactly what the elves do in the trees
And my wife would rather plow a Tauren man than be with me
If I finish all my quests, someone designs some more for free,
This game keeps going on.
(Chorus)
I just bought a scroll of healing, it was all I could afford;
And I just fought fifty dragons, 'cause my Paladin was bored:
This game keeps going on.
(Chorus)
Glory, Glory - to the Warcraft
Hordey, Hordey - on the Orc raft
Glory, Glory – to the Warcraft
This game keeps going on.
I have seen the special classes of so many racial camps;
I can play all through the night despite my finger-numbing cramps;
I get more and more addicted as the difficulty ramps;
This game keeps going on.
(Chorus)
I have bred a ready warrior, with ancient blade of steel:
Lots of crit so when I tank I spike the damage that I deal;
I have started using verbs that years ago would not be real
This game keeps going on.
(Chorus)
I was riding on my griffon that I own just as I planned
When he saw a lady-griffon, then he threw me to the land
Lucky me, here's the collector's version map right in my hand.
This game keeps going on.
(Chorus)
I was wondering exactly what the elves do in the trees
And my wife would rather plow a Tauren man than be with me
If I finish all my quests, someone designs some more for free,
This game keeps going on.
(Chorus)

I can't really say that I "get" it...but it's perfectly paced and easy to sing...so I'll give you 5s.
That's perfectly fine, Arwen. It's in reference to an 'Expanding RPG', an on-line game that has you play the role of a fictional character in a world of Night Elves, Orcs, and other assorted races. It's called an 'Expanding' RPG because there are more quests and adventures in the game than any one adventurer can get to, and every couple of months the game designers can implement some new ones to keep a gamer's interest, ramble, ramble, ramble... ...Anyway, thanks for the support.
Never played WoW but spent WAY too much time playing EverQuest ( I should say NeverQuest or EverCrack ). Too bad they made shamans ( my main ) weaker with every expansion and you needed a full guild in the end levels ( planes ) to get anything done. I like this though. 5s.
If this said, "LEROY!" I would have lost it. If you don't know what I'm talking about, PM me, and I'll send you a hilarious Warcraft spoof link.
Damn, Jeff, you beat me to the "LEERRRROOOOYYYY!" comment. I've never actually played WoW, but my friends are obsessed, and I've seen the Leroy video way too many times.
Lol, I play WoW alot and that is the greatest song I have ever had the pleasure to read. Keep writing!!
Yep, neither have I played it except for 5 minutes once (dial up SUCKS) but playing D2LOD and DSLOA hold me over. This is frickin' amazing, how did you ever get the pacing on like that? I'd give you a 6, but....I'll make you a deal: in about 10 years, when I actually know how to hack, I'll control amiright just long enough to allow a 6 for pacing, give it to you, and get out, kay?
lofl that was good i was googling the actual in game music and came upon this rock on!
