A long, long time ago... In my college dorm room Guitar Hero used to made me smile And I knew if I had no fear That I could make that fake crowd cheer And it would make me happy for a while.
But February made me shiver With every blog post I would quiver Bad news on the Internet No more colorful frets
I couldn't believe my tearing eyes When I read what Kotick did decide I really wish it was a lie The day Guitar Hero died
So bye-bye fake guitar playing guy This decision Activision made Has left us deprived Them good ol' boys were drinking red bull and sprite Singin rock band would have been a good buy Rock band would have been a good buy
Did you lose your faith in games When you couldn't perfect Through the Fire and Flames Did your Star power get too low?
Do you believe what happened here? Did this game save Slash's music career? And could you teach me how to play in Easy mode?
Well, I know you love your C-O-D And are planning Modern Warfare 3 Your guns replaced guitars And you tomahawked our hearts
I was a lonely teenage legend of rock With a Boston t-shirt and superman socks But I found I was nothin' but talk The day Guitar Hero died
I started singin', Bye-bye fake guitar playing guy This decision Activision made Has left us deprived Them good ol' boys were drinking red bull and sprite Singin rock band would have been a good buy Rock band would have been a good buy
At Neversoft, designers screamed Musicians cried, and the gamers dreamed? But we were out of tokens; And the PS2's were broken
And the songs I 5-starred all the time Like Free Bird and Sweet Child of Mine Got stuck on replay in my mind The day Guitar Hero Died
We were singin' Bye-bye fake guitar playing guy This decision Activision made Has left us deprived Them good ol' boys were drinking red bull and sprite Singin rock band would have been a good buy Rock band would have been a good buy
