Bye Bye, Went the Tank Healer Guy

So, an idea hit me today for a Parody to the song "Bye Bye Miss American Pie". The only way you'd get most of the song is if you are a World of Warcraft player, especially back in the days of Vanilla WoW. The song is about a failed Onyxia (a level 60 raid boss) raid, and references some of the mechanics in that raid that used to wipe the raid. So, here are the words:

V1. A long, long time ago in World of Warcraft of yesteryear Onyxia was under attack.
     And I had thought we had a pretty good chance to get our Tier 2 helm and bag. But something was about to go wrong.
     Oh, we all thought we knew the fight. The odds went left and the evens right.
     But the tank got feared in fire. He said, "Healing is my desire."
     But the priest, you see, oh, he'd gone OOM. He'd used a mana potion, too.
     He call the paladin a noob. Said, "I'm leaving this raid."

CH. Well, bye bye, went the tank healer guy.
     Healed the pally with his mana till his mana went dry.
     That good ol' boy did a "slash wave" goodbye
     Sayin', "This won't be the day that I die. This won't be the day that I die!"

V2. And so we started up again. Replaced the noobs that were our friends. There must have been, oh, eight or ten.
     We cleared the trash and then we paused. But it didn't seem like long enough, 'cause we ran into trouble again.
     The DPS got feared to eggs, there were whelps now everyplace.
     The tank tried to bring 'em 'round, but his taunt was on cool down!
     The healer said he'd had enough, he didn't realize this boss was rough.
     We said, "We need you!" He said, "Tough! I will not heal your raid."

V3. We finally got to her again. "Third time's a charm," that's what we said. But we found out so differently.
     The tank stacked sunders on her head. "Throw more DoTs!" The leader said. We really wanted to see her dead.
     But her tail swipe hit us all; threw us right into the wall.
     We did it again. Who were we trying to kid?
     So on our third try she didn't go down. In fact, she made us look like clowns.
     The healer did not stick around. He said, "T.T.Y.L. G.L."

V4. We caught a port to Stormwind town; disappointment all around. No one had gotten loot.
     We tried our best, but failed the test. I guess you already know the rest: Onyxia gave us the boot.
     And in the end our tank had died. Hunter feigned death; we all "slash cried".
     And from all that croakin', all our gear was broken.
     And the GM I admired most? Onyxia had burned to toast. Well, I'm still here and he's a ghost. I guess I'll rez his corpse.
 -END

Well, there you have it. I am going to try and record that soon. If I do, it will be available for download. Hope you enjoyed, especially if you are a WoW fan(atic).
