We Are Sentinels

The world is falling down again
A madman’s evil eyes are looking for it’s end
His power is on display
Minions turning up to break this final day
There’s damage everywhere
It might be more than the fixer can repair
The Baron’s got his deadly beam
He’ll crash the moon to earth unless we stop his scheme
We’ve got one shot to use our power
We’ve got to hurry before they break the freedom tower
It’s time we heed the call
Time for you and I to save it all
We are Sentinels
We are Sentinels
Heroes that unite
For the cause of right
We are Sentinels
The villains unveiled their strategy
Their defeat will be our greatest legacy
The (ongoing threat) minion carnage is growing fast
But you will burn it all away with a fire blast
When the bad guys knock you down
It’s not over while you have friends around
Lives in the balance
But they won’t take the day
Things are getting dire
But we have one last card to play
We are Sentinels
We are Sentinels
Heroes that unite
For the cause of right
We are Sentinels

New Game - Yes
Choose Difficulty: Hard
(You’ve chosen adulting with career)
Roll out of bed
Jump in the shower
Upgrade my costume
Time to use the special power
These levels are getting long
And there’s no cheat code
This game is more than hard enough
But at least there’s a co-op mode
I got through the whole day
Without spilling on my shirt
I didn’t break my diet
With a second helping of dessert
I played an adult today
Achievement Unlocked
I ate my greens today
Achievement Unlocked
I (totally) parked parallel
Achievement Unlocked
I consoled a friend not feeling well
Achievement Unlocked
We approach the looming tower
Of the cubicle domain
We must acquire the gold coins
Without going insane
Worker drones are everywhere
But we are not afraid
They attack with monotony
Time for a weapon upgrade
I faked my way through an idle chat
About some sort of sport
I managed to put a cover sheet
On my TPS report
I played an adult today
Achievement Unlocked
I RTFM'd today
Achievement Unlocked
I stayed awake through the meeting
Achievement Unlocked
I returned your greeting
Achievement Unlocked
We’ve been given an epic quest
Called Assault on the Endless Chores
But first we must prepare ourselves
With loot from the grocery stores
Our Inventory is getting low
Need to smash some blocks of pay
Uh oh the music changed
Time to Fight the Boss: Form 1040A
I played an adult today
Achievement Unlocked
I went outside today
Achievement Unlocked
I climbed a wall today
Achievement Unlocked
I broke an arm today
Achievement Unlocked
I really wish we could reset
And start over today
Or at least reload
And get another play
I played an adult today
Achievement Unlocked
I didn’t get in my own way
Achievement Unlocked
I wrote a song today
Achievement Unlocked
I made a new friend today
Epic Awesome Achievement Unlocked

Click it down two more rows
(chant line)
Ticket open
Ticket close
Enter blocks of faulty prose
Here’s how we troubleshoot
“Please shutdown and then reboot”
(Chorus)
Ticket open
Take the case
One more step
In an endless race
But if the metrics
Don’t keep pace
You’ll find another
Working place
"Needs to change the desktop sound"
Time to send the new guy round
“It always used to work before”
The tape fell off the printer door
CHORUS
Time to find
the day’s excuse
"Solar flares
make cables loose"
User needs an “ANY” key
Mark it error ID-Ten-T
CHORUS
Tickets clogging up the queue
Assign them all to level two
Now the caller’s getting mad
Oops I think the line went bad
Ticket open
Take the case
One more step
In an endless race
But if the metrics
Don’t keep pace
You’ll find another
Working place
Ticket open
Take the case
One more step
In an endless race
There's one good thing
though it is small
You're not the schmuck
who's stuck on call

My Name Is Serenity
04:52
|
|||
Welcome to my clubhouse
Come inside if you’re brave
But be ready for some bumps
‘Cause we aim to misbehave
My crew is smart and shiny
They keep me in the black
Even when the job goes south
You know I’ll bring them back
My name is Serenity
And I’m a soaring firefly
For just a little fee
I’ll take you to my sky
And we will roam the stars so free
Cause they’ll never take this sky from me
There's Wash: betrayed by dinosaurs
And Zoe knows what to do
Inara is steel inside of silk
And Mal will see us through
Shepherd Book’s mysterious
The Tams are on the run
Kaylee keeps me running smooth
And Jayne he’s got a gun
My name is Serenity
And I’m a soaring firefly
For just a little fee
I’ll take you to my sky
And we will roam the stars so free
Cause they’ll never take this sky from me
The alliance is closing in
To rule us all by fear
We’ll leave behind those cry babies
And then just disappear
Some broken things can not be fixed
But I will always fly true
And when you can’t run anymore
I will carry you
My name is Serenity
And I’m a soaring firefly
For just a little fee
I’ll take you to my sky
And we will roam the stars so free
Cause they’ll never take this sky from me
Watch how I soar

I Built A Time Machine
05:27
|

When I show up on Monday
He's waiting there for me
A stupid smirk
showing that he knows
We call him “The Spoiler”
Because this villain lies in wait
To reveal the ending
of our favorite shows
But I’ve got a secret plan
to finally foil the spoiler man
I built a time machine
‘cause I don’t have DVR
I built a time machine
‘cause I don’t have DVR
We’ll alter time’s flow
To catch my favorite show
And then I will always know
How the story goes
I built a time machine
My new remote control
is really universal
It can channels
just like you expect
But I can fast forward
and rewind time
Pause the universe
But I don’t know what
happens when you hit eject
And when I don't understand a thing
I’ve got close captioning
I built a time machine
‘cause I don’t have DVR
I built a time machine
‘cause I don’t have DVR
We’ll alter time’s flow
To catch my favorite show
And I will always know
How the story goes
I built a time machine
I’ll Skip my way to the future
Grab a place in line
To see Star Wars Episode 94
I'll grab a soylent smoothie
And watch Star Trek’s fifth reboot
Where Absolutely Everyone's Gone Before
Dimension jump to a different sky
To see Season 2 of Firefly
I built a time machine
‘cause I don’t have DVR
I built a time machine
‘cause I don’t have DVR
We’ll alter time’s flow
To catch my favorite show
And I will always know
How the story goes
I built a time machine
They say use this power
for the good of humanity
But I'd screw up the timeline
oh so permanently
I figure I'm safe
just watching a show
One little look
no one will know
Then one day I dropped it
the remote shorted out
Now I’m stuck in a loop
again and again
Watching the same 20 minutes
over and over
Please someone
Won't you tell me how it ends!
I built a time machine
because I don't have a dvr
Now I broke my time machine
and I still don't have a dvr
We'll alter times flow
to catch our favorite show
Please someone let me know
How the story goes
I built a time machine
I built a time machine
now I'm stuck looping again
Please save me Spoiler
PleaseTell me the end

The Other Guys
03:51

I’m a limey fork flinger
And you are raging out of control
This guy, he can shovel well
And she really knows how to bowl
You know who to call
When the trouble is serious
One guys is silent but deadly
And the other is mysterious
We’re the other guys
We’re the other guys
When it comes to heroes
Yeah, we know we’re not the best
We’re the other guys
We’re the other guys
But when it's our turn to save you
We will never rest
‘Cause we’re the other guys
You call us wannabes
we will endure all your hazing
and we will flip every toggle
To rescue captain amazing
They tell us to act our age
But were facing a great disaster
If you don’t learn to master your rage...
We’re the other guys
We’re the other guys
When it comes to heroes
Yeah we know you’d pick us last
We’re the other guys
We’re the other guys
But we’ll try to save the day
Even though we weren’t asked
And when the big guy is down
It’s our turn to go
How to defeat the Disco Gang
Is what we need to know
We’re the other guys
We’re the other guys
We’re the mystery men
The super septet
We’re the other guys
We’re the other guys
But when we save the day
I’ll forkgive you if you forkget
We’re them
We’re they
We’re the other guys

Ice Cream Coma
04:25
|
|||
I know I should see a doctor
For my weird disease
Lactochrononitis
Or in laymans terms - Brain Freeze
One little milkshake
Puts me right to sleep
Have a sundae on Monday
And I'm out rest of the week
Ice Cream Coma
White Lightning
Ice Cream Coma
Has struck my brain
Ice Cream Come
Toffee Coffee
Ice Cream Coma
Will Drive You Insane
Coma...
Normally someone eats it
And gets a brain freeze
But I ate a chunky munky
And missed 1983
I missed a week
From a vanilla
And a month from Rocky Road
I slept through all of October
From a pint of cookie dough
Ice Cream Coma
Butter Brickle
Ice Cream Coma
So rich and cold
Ice Cream Coma
French Vanilla
Ice Cream Coma
Never gets old
Coma...
Cryogenic suspension
In a convenient little cup
I know I should resist it
But I just eat it up
If you find me frozen
Please leave a note on my head
Don’t you dare defrost me
‘Cuz I aintn’t dead
Put me in a cryogenic dairy freezer
And we'll chill through space and time
Then we can enjoy raspberry ripple
In 2099
And if I miss any flavors
Promise to save me some
Unless it's something outrageous
Like onion bubble gum
Ice Cream Coma...

I Am Not A Gun
04:51
|
|||
Lost alone and stranded
Vacuum memories
Hungry desperation
Then you set me free
I am bigger on the outside
So small and lost inside
And then your words filled me up
Your love became my guide
We are who we choose to be
The men of fear are coming
To force the past on me
They won’t rest until I become
What they think they see
They might be right to fear
In the dark corners of my mind
Echoes of another place
Where I was not so kind
We are who we choose to be
We are who we choose to be
I am not a gun
You showed me great adventures
Stories filled with thrill
And the reality of danger
What it means to kill
I could be Atomo
Made to destroy
Or I could be a hero
And save my only boy
We are who we choose to be
We are who we choose to be
I am not a gun
I am Superman
I am Superman
And I choose love

Team Neville FTW
04:07
|
|||
He’ll never be a seeker
He can barely ride a broom
And faces fail to shine at all
When he walks into the room
He’s gawking awkward gangly
Buck toothed and accident prone
But when you need someone to lean on
His name stands alone
You might look right past him
Without a second glance
But he’s the hero we deserve
And he sure knows how to dance
It’s Team Neville For The Win
Team Neville FTW
Let me hear you sing it out
Team Neville FTW
It takes a bit of courage
To take down evil men
You know it takes a good deal more
To face down your friends
He knows his herbology
With the green thumb that he’s got
When you need some gillyweed
He’s Neville on the spot
Sometimes he’s forgetful
But hey aren’t we all
He’s able to recall
With a Remembrall
It’s Team Neville For The Win
Team Neville FTW
Let me hear you sing it out
Team Neville FTW
You know he’s seen so much pain
A life filled with heartache
Sorrows that would crush a lesser man
But he will never break
It’s Team Neville For The Win
Team Neville FTW
Let me hear you sing it out
Team Neville FTW
What he lacked in talent
He made up for with persistence
When the big three ran away
You know he led the resistance
When the good guys were hanging back
He stepped up to the dark lord
He didn’t try to speechify
Instead he found a sword
He may not be the one
You think will impress the crowd
But he has what it takes
To make his parents proud
It’s Team Neville For The Win
Team Neville FTW
Let me hear you sing it out
Team Neville FTW

One With The Force
05:28
|
|||
When I was a kid
Going to a grocery store
I always waved my hand
To open the door
I would turn off my targeting
When I shot a basketball
Knowing that the Force
Would surely guide its fall
I believed the Force could get me
Out of every tight spot
And if I only had a saber
I could deflect every shot
With the Force I could jump so high
I’d leave the earth behind
I could simply wave my fingers
to change someone’s mind
And I still want to believe
I am one with the force
And the force is with me
I am one with the force
And the force is with me
I am one with the force
And the force is with me
I am one
With the force
I’d have a little green guy
Who’d ride around on my back
He’d teach me knowledge and defense,
But not a word about attack
I’d peer into the future,
See visions of my fate
But somehow I‘d always get there
Just a bit too late
And I still want to believe
I am one with the force
And the force is with me
I am one with the force
And the force is with me
I am one with the force
And the force is with me
I am one
With the force
Maybe there’s no mystical field
That guides my destiny
They say it’s all
Simple tricks and nonsense
But I still believe
That something connects us all
And I know
It’s not Midichlorians
I am one with the force
And the force is with me
I am one with the force
And the force is with me
I am one with the force
And the force is with me
I am one
With the force

It's All XP To Me
04:25
|

It’s 8:00 friday night
This time we will get it right
It’s time for our little group to fight
In this raid as one
We'll grind some rats
for rocks that glow
Why they eat them
No one knows
We need them to craft a dark banjo
to summon the evil one
It’s the 8th time we’ll take him down
All for a chance to find an purple crown
So we’ll fight fight fight
In this raid tonight
Destroying mobs is our destiny
If we die die die
We are not gonna cry
We will rise again, you will see
And It’s all XP to me
And when that evil king appears
Our rogue will stab him in the rear
Then everyone should jump clear
He might use his Death Boquet
Now my mana's getting low
And you know that dwarf is slow
He needs to find a new crossbow
That fires more than once a day
Someday I'll be just like you
When I reach level 62
We’ll fight fight fight
In this raid tonight
Destroying mobs is our destiny
If we die die die
We are not gonna cry
We will rise again, you will see
And It’s all XP to me
Our tank is now low on health
And our rogue has lost his stealth
We don't know where we left the elf
Yeah The Ranger has lost his way
The Wizard is down so you protect
until the healer can resurrect
Shoot! It seems her plans were wrecked
By the Necromancer's Ray
This looks like it might be our end
I am glad you're here with me my friend
We’ll fight fight fight
In this raid tonight
Destroying mobs is our destiny
If we die die die
We are not gonna cry
We will rise again, you will see
And It’s all XP to me
The rogue has brought a world of pain
He was followed by a monster train
Of Orcs with aggro on their brain
And some are really strong
I'll fire off my DOT
Then you hit them with your AOE
We'll take them down 1, 2, 3
Unless something goes wrong...
...and now the tank went link dead
Maybe it's time to go to bed
So we’ll fight fight fight
In this raid tonight
Destroying mobs is our destiny
If we die die die
We are not gonna cry
We will rise again, you will see
And It’s all XP to me

The Greater Good
04:15
|
|||
A quiet little town
The perfect place to stay
Everyone knows everyone
Perfect in every way
So Picturesque
In the Dictionary for quaint
We’re the neighborhood watch
But you’ll hear no complaint
Just don’t ask
About our accidents
We do it all (do it all)
For the greater good
We do it all (do it all)
For the greater good
It’s not for us
It’s for the greater good
The crime rate in this town
Is just about nill
And our town’s most wanted
has a black bill
It’s not really murder
We just dispose of pests
Why can’t you understand
We meant it for the best
By the end it will be clear
We are the village of the year
We do it all (do it all)
For the greater good
We do it all (do it all)
For the greater good
It’s not for us
It’s for the greater good
You’re not the first cop
To try to put us on the spot
The last guy was just as good
And he had something you haven’t got
We’re sorry you decided
To make such a fuss
We had such hopes for you
But now you must come with us
We do it all (do it all)
For the greater good
We do it all (do it all)
For the greater good
It’s not for us
It’s for the greater good
