The Lyrics
About all of those people who try to keep forums running smoothly.
When the users that operate the forum lose control of the topic
When the mind of its own then diverges but claims that it is not sick
When the title has no indirect relation, should we go back to the first idea?
There's a moderator yelling at you constantly when you might be just posting unrelated things about beef
Tone it up, tone it down
Tone it up when whole posts are one frown
If the caps lock is on, tone it down
Tone it up, tone it down
As I was just posting
As I was just posting
As I was just telling you a minute ago
I was just posting and someone locked the whole thread
Or, was it a large near-spam post
Or, is it a hateful post, engulfed in flames, or is it just me?
(x3)
Tone it up, tone it down
Tone it up when whole posts are one frown
If the caps lock is on, tone it down
Tone it up, tone it down
When the mind of its own then diverges but claims that it is not sick
When the title has no indirect relation, should we go back to the first idea?
There's a moderator yelling at you constantly when you might be just posting unrelated things about beef
Tone it up, tone it down
Tone it up when whole posts are one frown
If the caps lock is on, tone it down
Tone it up, tone it down
As I was just posting
As I was just posting
As I was just telling you a minute ago
I was just posting and someone locked the whole thread
Or, was it a large near-spam post
Or, is it a hateful post, engulfed in flames, or is it just me?
(x3)
Tone it up, tone it down
Tone it up when whole posts are one frown
If the caps lock is on, tone it down
Tone it up, tone it down
