Dying For The Emperor |
Finger on the button |
Perspiration on the forehead |
Splashing puddles on the keyboard |
Jerking sideways, upwards, downwards |
Blisters |
Spiders sing a tune, you do |
You can’t destroy the aliens |
Can’t destroy the aliens |
It’s painful when you’re doing well |
But we keep coming back |
But still he tries as missiles fly |
His lady keeps complaining |
About the lack of conversation |
Session’s lasted for a day now |
But he won’t give up the fight |
You gotta destroy those aliens |
Gotta destroy the aliens |
It’s painful when he’s doing well |
But they keep coming back |
Impatiently they brought him food |
And forced it down his throat |
'Till he was choking |
Dribbled gravy, swiveled crazy |
Spacey glimmer in his eyes |
Likes to splatter all the aliens |
Flatten all the aliens |
It’s painful when he’s doing well |
Yet still they creep on back |
Creeping back for more |
Still he won’t give up |
Though senators slap him on the back |
And snap him with their instamatic |
Automatic, jerkomatic |
He’s fanatical but ice cool |
As he cannons down his aliens |
Gotta destroy the aliens |
It’s painful when he’s doing well |
But still they keep on coming back |
His score’s just topped a million |
He’s killing them |
A winner |
Though he’s getting so much thinner |
And beginning to see stars |
Starts to mutter |
Eyelids flutter |
On the point of passing out |
You gotta destroy the aliens |
Gotta destroy the aliens |
It’s painful when he’s doing well |
But still they keep on creeping back |
The nation sighed |
His mother cried |
He just expired, still firing |
Firing high and wide |
He tried to beat them 'till the end |
Tried to beat the aliens |
Tried to beat the aliens |
He failed, a failure |
A failure |
