I am just a miner Though my story's seldom told I have removed all my resistance For a pocket full of upgrades such are promises All lies and jests Still a man hears what he wants to hear And disregards the rest
When I left the station and safety I was no more than a boy In the company of strangers In the quiet of an asteroid belt mining scared Laying low, seeking out the dead-end systems That nobody really knows Looking for the places Goons don't really go
Lie, Lie, Lie
Asking only miner's wages I was looking for some isk 'Cos I got no offers, Just a come-on from the Goons in re..cruit..ment I do declare, there were times when I was so lonesome I thought to take some comfort there
Lie, Lie lie ...
Then I'm zapping roids in high..sec And wishing I was strong Making isk Where the gankers from 0.0 aren't bleeding me Bleeding me, making isk
In the clearing stands The Mittani He's a lawyer by his trade And he carries the reminders Of ev'ry glove that touched him there Or kissed him till he cried out In his anger and his shame "I am winning , I am winning" But the lawyer still remains
Lie, Lie, Lie
EDIT: This is also an age test. If you don't know the tune then you're too young to give a **** anyway. Take an aspirin. If pain persists consult your local priest. WTB: An Austrian kangaroo!

its fortunate that you have no life cos you don't deserve one The American public's reaction to the change was poor and the new cola was a major marketing failure. The subsequent reintroduction of Coke's original formula, re-branded as "Coca-Cola Classic", resulted in a significant gain in sales, leading to speculation that the introduction of the New Coke formula was just a marketing ploy |

Can we make this a contest? Like the chanson Eurovision? No offense meant, but your Ode was so funny it inspired me, even though I'm not with the Goons... Inspired by this of course...
They call me The Ahaha-postel But my name was Mine-all-Day Why they call me it I do not know For my name was Mineall Day
From the first day I saw roids I knew they were the ones As ISK flared in my eyes and I smiled For the rocks were the colour of the Trit That swamped the whole market, all bloody and wild
When they knocked on my grid and entered the belt My trembling increased in their scrambling embrace This would be my first loss, and with a careful toss They brought on the tears that ran down my face
CHORUS
On the second day I brought a Brutix She was more beautiful than any woman I'd seen I said, 'Do you know where the Ice thingies grow So sweet and blue and free?'
On the second day he came with a single cruiser Said: 'Will you give me your loss and your sorrow?' I banged my poor head, as I fled from the trap He said, 'If I show you Ice will you follow?'
CHORUS
On the third day he took me to the Ice field He showed me the blue Ice and we kissed And the last thing I heard was a muttered word As he had me shot smiling by a stealthie in his fleet...
On the last day I took her where the ice grows And she lay on the grid, the warp light as a thief As I kissed her goodbye, I said, 'All beauty must die' And lent down and planted a torp between her teeth |

Neighborhood Mittani:
Well, the neighborhood Mittani, heGÇÖs just one man His enemies say heGÇÖs on their land They got him outnumbered about a million to one He got no place to escape to, no place to run HeGÇÖs the neighborhood Mittani
The neighborhood Mittani just lives to survive HeGÇÖs criticized and condemned for being alive HeGÇÖs not supposed to fight back, heGÇÖs supposed to have thick skin HeGÇÖs supposed to lay down and die when his door is kicked in HeGÇÖs the neighborhood Mittani
The neighborhood Mittani been driven out of every land HeGÇÖs wandered the earth an exiled man Seen his family scattered, his people hounded and torn HeGÇÖs always on trial for just being born HeGÇÖs the neighborhood Mittani
Well, he knocked out a lynch mob, he was criticized Old women condemned him, said he should apologize. Then he destroyed a bomb factory, nobody was glad The bombs were meant for him. He was supposed to feel bad HeGÇÖs the neighborhood Mittani
Well, the chances are against it and the odds are slim That heGÇÖll live by the rules that the world makes for him GÇÖCause thereGÇÖs a noose at his neck and a gun at his back And a license to kill him is given out to every maniac HeGÇÖs the neighborhood Mittani
He got no allies to really speak of What he gets he must pay for, he donGÇÖt get it out of love He buys obsolete weapons and he wonGÇÖt be denied But no one sends flesh and blood to fight by his side HeGÇÖs the neighborhood Mittani
Well, heGÇÖs surrounded by pacifists who all want peace They pray for it nightly that the bloodshed must cease Now, they wouldnGÇÖt hurt a fly. To hurt one they would weep They lay and they wait for this Mittani to fall asleep HeGÇÖs the neighborhood Mittani
Every empire thatGÇÖs enslaved him is gone Egypt and Rome, even the great Babylon HeGÇÖs made a garden of paradise in the desert sand In bed with nobody, under no oneGÇÖs command HeGÇÖs the neighborhood Mittani
Now his holiest books have been trampled upon No contract he signed was worth what it was written on He took the crumbs of the world and he turned it into wealth Took sickness and disease and he turned it into health HeGÇÖs the neighborhood Mittani
WhatGÇÖs anybody indebted to him for? NothinGÇÖ, they say. He just likes to cause war Pride and prejudice and superstition indeed They wait for this Mittani like a dog waits to feed HeGÇÖs the neighborhood Mittani
What has he done to wear so many scars? Does he change the course of rivers? Does he pollute the moon and stars? Neighborhood Mittani, standing on the hill Running out the clock, time standing still Neighborhood Mittani

Only A Miner:
As I was out warpin' to a roid belt one day I spied an old miner, in a ship's wreck he lay His pod was all grounded in the cold bulkhead door And I guess heGÇÖd been there for the whole night or more
Only a miner, but one more is gone LeavinGÇÖ nobody to sing his sad song LeavinGÇÖ nobody to carry him home Only a miner, but one more is gone
A blanket of shell casings covered his pod As the wreck was his pillow, the emp was his bed One look at his face showed the hard road heGÇÖd come And a fistful of isk showed the money he bummed
Only a miner, but one more is gone LeavinGÇÖ nobody to sing his sad song LeavinGÇÖ nobody to carry him home Only a miner, but one more is gone
Does it take much of a man to see his whole ship go down To look up on the 'verse from a hole in the hull To wait for your future like a horse thatGÇÖs gone lame To lie in the gutter and die with no name?
Only a miner, but one more is gone LeavinGÇÖ nobody to sing his sad song LeavinGÇÖ nobody to carry him home Only a miner, but one more is gone

That's good, then as i'm not for another 6 months
Also, now you've gone and got me making up something similar of my own, for a Ralph Mctell song. Beats working on one's thesis, no?
