The Lyrics

A missive to the sort of troll who periodically forces the Decades Messageboard into member-posting only...
Used to sit right here and grin
Used to post without logging in
I can't believe that right's gone away.

Used to feel it was a game
Used to post under silly names
Can you imagine how I feel today?
Well it seems a long time ago
I had a username
Now it comes to lurking, no:
I cannot do the same
Do you know who's to blame?

It's not funny that we can't lurk anymore
It's not funny that we can't lurk anymore
But I won't be ignored! On the messageboard
It's not funny that we can't lurk anymore

Well it really doesn't matter to me,
I'm not leaving a unique IP
Is guest-posting really meant to be
Though I know I'm just a hopeless troll
Left on my own again,
I won't stop swearing, you'll see
Though I'm the only one
I've only just begun.... but

It's not funny that we can't lurk anymore
It's not funny that we can't lurk anymore
But I won't be ignored! On the messageboard
It's not funny that we can't lurk anymore

But I won't be ignored! On the messageboard
It's not funny that we can't lurk anymore

But I won't be ignored! On the messageboard
It's not funny that we can't lurk anymore
It was this thread that gave me the idea for this song.

We don't agree on some of our politics, but we can all agree good riddance to the pest of the dear old massageboard. And hopefully, this troll would be back so we can lurk again in good time.

Hey, Jonathan - was "massageboard" a Freudian typo? And you're right: a political disagreement shouldn't stop people being friends or friendly - thinking about it, political disagreements turning personal is pretty much what started this whole business anyway.
