Couldn't get this song out of my head and I was bored today. Took the time, thought I'd share:


"We Didn't Start The Fire"

Cam Newton 180K, Dickerson's big Pay Day,
Craig James, Bob Stoops, Bomar, BigRed Auto
SMU misbehaving, BC's points shavin'
North Carolina, South Carolina, Louisiana Monroe

Ohio State Tattoo-Gate, Selling rings, pandemonium
A&M gets their chance and then OU starts the rants
USC Carrol's out, and Reggie has a new house
Nevin Shapiro, Luther Campbell, Miami's Pell Grants


We didn't start the fire
It was always burning
Since the world's been turning
We didn't start the fire
No, we didn't light it
But we didn't try to hide it


Adidas and Nike, they're all in, can't you see?
Maurice Clarett, not done yet, even Chance Mock
Rick Petino, Bob Petrino, Sunduski, Joe Paterno
Fake classes, test takers, another player with a glock.
Georgia, AJ Green, Ole Miss bought their team!
Bama's mad, investigation, Scholly loss, and bowl probation.
Mack's out, Gator scandal and Urban's sick,
Fall from grace, V-Y's Place, Trouble on Wonderlic!

We didn't start the fire
It was always burning
Since the world's been turning
We didn't start the fire
No, we didn't light it
But we didn't try to hide it

Little Rock Track Team, Kirby Smart, Nakobe Dean,
Chezik, Freshwater, Tunsil gettin high.
Seton Hall, Pay 'em all, California basketball
Starkville Homicide, Autographs and gettin by.


Horns with Hearts pays $50K
Hula Hoops, Ed O, Gator Bowl a no-go
Brian Kelly's fam-uh-lee, payola and Kennedy
James's kid in a shed …. Ricky smokes some more Weed


We didn't start the fire
It was always burning
Since the world's been turning
We didn't start the fire
No, we didn't light it
But we didn't try to hide it


Johnny Football, Heisman, Aggies in Aggieland
Al Golden, Berrrlin, FBI investigation
Lawrence of Nebraska, Even Fairbanks Alaska
Ole Miss, Winston, Adidas pays Williamson

Steroids, Bozworth, Pole Assassin, Monkey Dancin.
Baylor Bear blown away, what else do I have to say?


We didn't start the fire
It was always burning
Since the world's been turning
We didn't start the fire
No, we didn't light it
But we didn't try to hide it


Aunt Becky's kid is in, Cam Newton Back Again
Les Miles, Art Briles, and another Trans-Am
Baylor's winning Sips not fine, Terror from Title Nine
Gary Barnett from CU, Racist songs at Blow-U
Hot Rod Williams, The Fab Five, Nahje Flowers suicide
Terrelle Prior, Ryan Leaf, Urban Meyer, Stripper's quieff,
Paid vacations on the shores, Corndog under team-vote,
Hugh Freeze and his w h o r z, I can't take it anymore



We didn't start the fire
It was always burning
Since the world's been turning
We didn't start the fire
But when we are gone
It will still burn on and on and on and on
And on and on and on and on...

How much time did you spend on this?

OP...user name checks out

Is your company hiring?

If you want to pen a quality TexAgs song or poem I suggest using "The Grackle" as a model.

Every time I feel like I'm wasting too much time, texags makes me feel better about myself.

7.5/10

no mention of Harvey Williams

But we stepped it up and shoved it up their butts...

Yeah ... I'm feeling a little ashamed. Spent about 45min, cut/paste the song and then thought of every scandal I could insert. I quit trying to make it rhyme after a while.

Kudos to you sir! Nice work.

I'll take the over. Oh, and user name partially checks out.

I like it! #twothumbs

COVID's tough on people.

I didn't see anything about Krab Legz in there.

Trouble on the Wonderlic put it over the top for me

"We strictly do 80s Joel music, sir."

I wish you well in your continued job search and that your unemployment comes to an end soon.

Name checks seem to be important on here. On the internet, everyone is a dog.

this is the best week at work to engage in such shenanigans. Don't feel bad! Just enjoy the time you spent on the clock coming up with this for texags enjoyment/ridicule.

Beautiful.

Solid effort

I did have crab legs in, but took it out to match the syllable count that line. Just left "Winston"

Quote:

Baylor's winning, Sips not fine, Terror from Title Nine

Best line of the whole thing

nothing to do with mama,.or trains, or trucks, or prison, or getting' drunk

The message we need to be running with, is this was coming with or without NIL…

2020 class and I am paraphrasing, but somebody can pull it up!

We signed 13? players who were number 1 in their position in their state…

OK you're right. This is not a great TexAgs song.
So, the last verse goes like this here:


OJ Mayo Slam Dunk, Sark is back to gettin drunk,
Joe Mixon No Prison Just a measly year Suspension
Notre Dame Misconduct, Seeberg-Rape Coverup
Derek Henry, Nick Chubb, Houston Nutt, Pick-Up Trucks
Pacman Jones, Michael Vick, VD, and a Herman Kiss
Jimmy Johnson, Barry Switzer, Zach Smith knows he hits her
Vandy's team ran a train, Duke and Stanford did the same?
Texas's Back thanks KU, Harvey Williams now mentioned too
All the player getting rich, but Tathan's Mama raised a B*tch!!!

We didn't start the fire
It was always burning
Since the world's been turning
We didn't start the fire
No, we didn't light it
But we didn't try to hide it


Krab Legs.

Who was the Baylor recruit who almost doubled his SAT score the second time he took it, and credited the improvement to a "real good tutor"? As I recall, he ended up at Nebraska.

Edit: I remember now. It was Joe Walker.

Nice!

So, what rhymes with McKelvey?

How...do you have the time to even come up with this?

Besides Barry Switzer and friends, we kinda started something. Eric Dickerson took the trans am from us and then flipped to SMU.
