It's been a while since the last time RMN embarked on a journey to write witty parodies of well-known songs. Recently, this post inspired me to revive the RMN Album and start working on Volume 3 - Scripted Reality. Help make it a reality by adding more songs!

You can find the first two installments here:
RMN ALBUM VOL.1 - BEFUDDLING TRACKS
RMN ALBUM VOL.2 - TAKE ME TO YOUR MAKER


There are only a few rules for adding songs:
- The rewritten lyrics must have something to do with game making and/or RMN.
- The songs used have to be widely known. It's only funny if people are likely to recognize the original and see what you did with the lyrics. Indicate the original song's name and artist to make it easier to recognize.
- If a song is very long or repetitive, or if you struggle to write new lyrics for a certain part, it's okay to leave a part out. This is supposed to be fun, not a pain in the butt.


And here's a first track to get things going:

The Real 2k3 (Eminem - The Real Slim Shady)

May I have your attention, please?
May I have your attention, please?
Will the real 2k3 please start up?
I repeat, will the real 2k3 please start up?
We're gonna have a problem here...


Y'all act like you've never seen an old engine before
Jaws all on the floor
like Ace and VX just burst in the door
Auto-generating chars worse than before
They first were enforced
Better switch over to me
It's the return of the...
"Ah, wait, no way, they're kidding
Did Degica do what I think they did, did they?"
And Don Miguel said... nothing, you cheaters!
Old version's dead, it's blocked from the spaceweb
Honest creators love RMN
"2k3? I'm sick of him
Look at him, going around
Showing his combat bugs
Messing our projects up"
"Yeah, but he's so good still"
Yeah, I probably got a couple of
lines up in my code messed
But no worse than what's going on
With MV's FPS
Sometimes, you wanna start on a game and just let loose
But can't
But I'm good for old-school stuff
If you so choose
My maps are made of chips
My maps are made of chips
And if you're lucky
You might just learn a few little tricks
And that's the message I deliver to all you kids
Can't expect them not to know
What a well-made database is
Of course they're gonna know
What a variable is
When they're starting their first game
They got the tutorial section, don't they?
We ain't nothing but game devs
So don't commit game theft
Stealing other people's work is totally shameless
But if we can sell Hero's Realm and Ara Fell
Then there's no reason that you, too
Can't work also on games just as well
And if you feel like I feel
Turn on creative mode
Game devs, get your daily dose
Sing the chorus, and it goes:

(Chorus:)
I'm 2k3
Yes I'm the real k3
All you other 2k3s
Are Tsukuru Makers
So won't the real 2k3
Please start up?
Please start up?
Please start up?
Cause I'm 2k3
Yes I'm the real k3
All you other 2k3s
Are Tsukuru Makers
So won't the real 2k3
Please start up?
Please start up?
Please start up?

Tsukuru don't gotta be legal to be famous
Well, I do
So **** that
And **** you too!
You don't appreciate the work of Cherry?
If you can afford to make games in your spare time
You can afford me
"But see, you were once free, isn't that weird?"
Why? Because you could just steal me and pirate me?
So you could, but now I'm back in the market?
You're right, it's a different era
Better switch to me
So I can sit next to old 2k and XP
And hear 'em argue over who's
Second best to me
Little twits, put me on first right on your screen
"Yeah, he's good, but he has no scripting, unlike XP"
You should download some games on your PC
And see the whole world likes
No Maker better than me
I'm sick of your fancy graphics and Ruby
All you do is annoy me
So I have been remade to destroy you!
And there's a million devs who just like me
Who work with me
Who create awesome games with me
Who swear by me
Make and break ground with me
No matter what's the new big thing
It's not quite me!

(Chorus:)
Cause I'm 2k3
Yes I'm the real k3
All you other 2k3s
Are Tsukuru Makers
So won't the real 2k3
Please start up?
Please start up?
Please start up?
Cause I'm 2k3
Yes I'm the real k3
All you other 2k3s
Are Tsukuru Makers
So won't the real 2k3
Please start up?
Please start up?
Please start up?

I am the best of game making tools
Though I'm only giving you
A choice of settings and events
That somewhat limits room
The only difference is I'm making you creative
Work 'round it all,
And I don't need crazy scripting nonsense at all
They just started me up and did it
And whether you like to admit it
You're outwitted
Better than ninety percent of all Makers out there
Then you wonder how can devs
Work when their Maker's outdated
It's funny, cause at the rate it's going, 2030
I'll be the only Maker in the world still deemed worthy
Chasing off the Ace-ers when
I'm making games commercial
And I'm laughing cause their whole
bag of scripting isn't working
And everywhere the legacy of 2k3's lurking
I could be working to make your game
Helping you gain cash and fame
And if my code's looping, circling
I simply don't give a ****
Now put MV down and this system up
So will the real 2k3 please start up
And put those conditions for each branch up?
And be proud to be back in your mind
And back in control
And one more time, best as you can
How does it go?!

(Chorus:)
I'm 2k3
Yes I'm the real k3
All you other 2k3s
Are Tsukuru Makers
So won't the real 2k3
Please start up?
Please start up?
Please start up?
Cause I'm 2k3
Yes I'm the real k3
All you other 2k3s
Are Tsukuru Makers
So won't the real 2k3
Please start up?
Please start up?
Please start up?

Haha!
Guess there some 2k3 in all of us.
Screw it, let's start all our Makers up!


I spent way more time and effort on this than can be considered reasonable in any way...
Also, wow, the original lyrics of this song are terrible!

Now, go forth and mak songs!


Track List:

1. NeverSilent - The Real 2k3 (Eminem - The Real Slim Shady)
2. kentona - Where's the Map? (Beck - Where it's at)
3. NeverSilent - The IGMC (Europe - The Final Countdown)

Where's the Map? (Beck - Where it's at)


<Verse 1>
There's a destination a little up the road
From the dank dungeons and the towns we know
A place we saw - the torch burns low -
The big-mawed cave and the river's fast-flow
Pulling out the map and get the marks out
Two turns left and a ways to go
Battles and clans just walk the lands
Just walk the lands

<Chorus>
Where's the map?
I got two turns left and a ways to go <x4>

<Verse 2>
(Take me home with my skeleton bones!)
(That was a good limit break)
Pick yourself up off the side of the road
With your skeleton bones
And your knapsack tomes
Embers only hyponotize us
Move through the vale like the gale behind us
Pays your dues to your river ferry dudes
Hirsute, with your pair of walking boots
Passing the markers from coast to coast
Like my pack horse Rose (who stocks the most)

<Chorus>
Where's the map?
I got two turns left and a ways to go <x4>

<Bridge>
("What about those who waypoint both ways? Mages? Druids?")
(Let's make it out, baby)

<Verse 3>
The destination's still a little up the road
Past the dank dungeons and the towns we know
A place we saw - the torch burns low -
The big-mawed cave and the river's fast-flow
Pulling out the map and get the marks out
Two turns left and a ways to go
Battles and clans just walk the lands
Just walk the lands

<Chorus>
Where's the map?
I got two turns left and a ways to go <x2>

Ha! That's a good one, kentona. Very cleverly done. Added to the list!


I forgot I wrote this one a long time ago. It's kind of ironic considering the event that is the theme of the song isn't even going to happen this year, but I'll just post it anyway.

The IGMC (Europe - The Final Countdown)
We're working together
All good and fair play
And maybe we can win
Some prize, who can say?

We've just got one month for this game
We all agree
No project will be this great again

It's the IGMC!
The IGMC!

The judges are ready
To play our games all
Make sure they're not glitchy
And keep your games small

The ultimate test for our
Creativity
Let's hope that the best will win this show

It's the IGMC!
The IGMC!
The IGMC!




(I'm kind of hoping someone is going to rewrite AC/DC's Highway to Hell into a song called Ara Fell...)
