Nominees for the (Un) Official Song of the CMC Wait


Recommended Posts

Hank Williams, I've Got Tears in My Ears from Cryin' Over You

WAR, Slippin' Into Darkness

To "House of the Rising Sun" melody, familiar to many from the expurgated version done by Eric Burden and the Animals.

There is a game in old Vermont

At the BFC locus

The thing's still in development

And preys so hard on us.

The days crawl past and though we cry

to know more of CMC

And urgent signs and omens scry

yet nothing do we see

So passerby, mark well our spot,

For here we all shall be

Waiting still with passion hot

for the release of CMC!

An old English song I learned in Voice seems also on point

With Thee the Desolate Moor

With thee the desolate moor I'd tread

Nor once of Fate complain

Though burning suns flash round my head

or cleave the barren plain

Thy lovely form alone I prize

'tis thou that canst impart

Continual pleasure to my eyes

And gladness to my heart!

Regards,

John Kettler

"What Have They Done to the Game"

(sung to the tune of What have they done to the Rain)

Just a little boy

waiting for a game

a game that never comes....for yearssss

and the game is late...the boy disappears

and the game keeps taking count-less years

Oh What have they done to the game?

Just a little girl

standing in the rain

the gentle rain that falls for years

and the grass is grey...the girl disappears

she ran off with the boy full of tears

oh what have they done to the game? lol

Just a little baby

sitting in the rain

the horrid rain that falls on himmm

and the grass is gold....his diaper is wet

this is what happens when game releases aren't met

Oh why did the game take sooooooo longgggg! lol

Just an ole man an woman

lying in the rain

the last rain for them for yearssss

and the grass is green...the graves deep and wet

never having played CMC ever yet

Oh what have they done to the damn game??

Watching the River Flow

...

People disagreeing on all just about everything, yeah,

Makes you stop and all wonder why.

Why only yesterday I saw somebody on the street

Who just couldn't help but cry.

Oh, this ol' river keeps on rollin', though,

No matter what gets in the way and which way the wind does blow,

And as long as it does I'll just sit here

And watch the river flow.

People disagreeing everywhere you look,

Makes you wanna stop and read a book.

Why only yesterday I saw somebody on the street

That was really shook.

But this ol' river keeps on rollin', though,

No matter what gets in the way and which way the wind does blow,

And as long as it does I'll just sit here

And watch the river flow.

...

-- Bob Dylan, 1971
