This Party is Over

Another from my series of lo-fi punk and glam inspired songs about the Interweb, this time dealing with Web hoaxes and tragedies.

LYRICS:

Jamie she had cancer
Or so she said online
But when she then logged off
Jamie was doing fine
Millions followed her posts
Concern spread worldwide
When it got too much for her
Jamie claimed she died
This party is over

Donna she was 16
36-28-36
She hit on men in chatrooms
She was looking for some kicks
Mike he was suspicious
Wanted to find out what he can
Donna was married and 50
Donna she was a man
This party is over

Jim set up a camera
Jim he ate some pills
Jim he lay down then
Jim was looking for some thrills
Everybody watched then
As the cops bust down Jim's door
Jim he was not moving
He told you he was hardcore
This party is over

Kitty fell from a window
Dan was shot in the thigh
You can watch her as she tumbles
You can watch him as he writhes
The comments call them fakers
The comments say they lie
But there are hundreds more on YouTube
One must actually show somebody die
This party is over

I like this - it's got real intensity and a vaguely threatening atmosphere. Very VU, may I say. I look forward to your challenge cover - you've got a natural head start on the rest of us. Nice work my man.

Your vocal is WAY to loud relative to the guitar.
