Chaining

[Zinovia]

Okay, I've had the idea for this for ages, but I guess playing a cleric kind of made it seem more relevant. I don't know what it is about EQ that encourages me to write filks, but here it is. <img src="/forums/images/gpicons/face_wink.gif"><br><br>

<b>Chaining</b><br>
to the tune of <i>Changes</i>, by David Bowie<br><br>

Still don't know if we could pull it off<br>
And my mana was running low<br>
A server first we tried and<br>
Every time I thought we'd got it made<br>
It seemed the raid was doomed to wipe<br>
So I watched my UI timer<br>
And sat between my casts<br>
I prayed this time we'd keep the tank up<br>
So we could kick that raid mob's ass<br><br>

CH-CH-CH-CH-Chaining<br>
(turn and face the wall)<br>
CH-CH-Chaining<br>
Don't bug me for a heal right now<br>
CH-CH-CH-CH-Chaining<br>
(turn and face the wall)<br>
CH-CH-Chaining<br>
Tell the necros ‘Twitch me now'<br>
The main tank may die<br>
If I can't count time.<br><br>

I watch the health bars fall and rise<br>
But never drop too low<br>
Until we reach enrage<br>
The AE's dropping folks like flies<br>
But still we all are game<br>
And the lag that we are facing<br>
As we try to hold this raid<br>
Has killed our frames per second<br>
Don't use the mouse, just hotkeys now<br><br>

CH-CH-CH-CH-Chaining<br>
(turn and face the wall)<br>
CH-CH-Chaining<br>
Don't tell us this fight cannot be won<br>
CH-CH-CH-CH-Chaining<br>
(turn and face the wall)<br>
CH-CH-Chaining<br>
Where's your pride<br>
You'll see we're gonna get it done<br>
The main tank may die<br>
If I can't count time.<br><br>

CH Rotation, concentrating me<br>
Ah chaining is taking all the mana I'm going through<br><br>

CH-CH-CH-CH-Chaining<br>
(turn and face the wall)<br>
CH-CH-Chaining<br>
Oh, look out boss of all these zones<br>
CH-CH-CH-CH-Chaining<br>
(turn and face the wall)<br>
CH-CH-Chaining<br>
Pretty soon now you're gonna get pwned<br>
The main tank may die<br>
If I can't count time<br>
I said the main tank may die<br>
If I can't count time<br><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://www.magelo.com/eq_view_profile.html?num=1187528">Socratus Wittgenstein</a> - Dwarf Archon<br>

The Dain song was funny. </br><br>

With the song I wrote it helps to listen to the original as you read it. It's not a song that scans well just in writing unfortunately, but it was the one I had to use - the whole CH-CH-CH thing made it work for this.<img src="/forums/images/gpicons/face_grin.gif"><br><br>
