Two Parps

Parp years/Two Parps, parody of Five Years by Bowie

Original in G, transposed to F or C for uke

Lyrics by ewe2 and archered from propagandist/thatguy

Pushing thru Port Olisar
so many gamers sighing
News had just come over,
They had two parps left to cry in

Ben wept and told us
CIG was really dying
Cried so much that his check had bounced
So I knew he was not lying

I heard smartphones, techno house, favourite melodies
I saw boys with their toys, electric parps and tvs
My brain hurt like a hangar, it had no room to spare
I had to sell so many things to store all the ships in there
And all the fat-skinny people, and all the tall-short people
And all the nobody people, and all the somebody people
I never thought they screwed so many people

A girl my age went off her meds,
Fleeced some mental children
Actually, she's pushing 50,
She thinks a chocobo is a chicken

Commando with a broken heart,
Fixed his stare to the wings of a News Van
A shill knelt and kissed the feet of a dev,
And a goon threw up at the sight of that

I think I saw you in an space-age dive bar,
Turning wrenches on a rendered fern
Drooling and waving and showing bleached teeth,
Don't think you knew that you went full burn

And it was cold and it rained so I tried to refactor
And I thought of fidelity and I wanted to get back there
Your pace, your grace, the way that you're shopped
I kiss you, you're beautiful, oh god you were cropped

They had two parps, chock full of lies
They had two parps, not a surprise
They had two parps, those bugs hurt a lot
They had two parps, that's all they've got

Two parps, not a surprise
Two parps, so full of lies
Two parps, my purse hurts a lot
Two parps, that's all they've got

Two parps, schedules are blown
Two parps, shillizens owned
Two parps, poor MoMa is sad
Two parps, that's all they had

Two parps, where did they go
Two parps, nobody knows
Two parps, they can't find the cash
Two parps, the company's trashed


two parps!
two parps!
TWOOOO PAAARRPS!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO PARRRRRRRRRRRPPPPPPPSSSSSSSS!
