I used to be a mod

but the fandom got too wanky\\
They're yelling and they're screeching\\
till they cough up half a lung\\
\\
Sometimes late at night\\
I still come around and troll 'em\\
I log in as my sock\\
and I go and have some fun\\
\\
I used to have a comm\\
but the newbies overthrew me\\
They said they couldn't stand\\
the shiny tinhat that I wore\\
The one they put in charge\\
she won't even talk to me\\
but ever since I left\\
no-one goes there anymore\\
\\
And I got scars on my back\\
from where everybody stabbed me\\
just because I said\\
they were stupid little whores\\
My amazing writing skills\\
made them emerald with envy\\
I used to be a mod\\
till they kicked me off the boards\\
\\
And I used to run a contest\\
but people hated me for winning\\
Then my first splashy flounce\\
made 'em beg me to stay\\
The fan community\\
was the only place I was properly admired\\
but my brilliance and my skills\\
were just more than they could take.\\
\\
I used to have a job\\
till I called the boss a loser\\
I'm only being honest, and I've gotta have my way\\
My so-called friends\\
all decided I'm a user\\
But sometimes late at night,\\
I creep around the comm\\
I search it for my name\\
just to see what people have to say\\
\\
It isn't that I care\\
I just wonder what they have to say\\
\\
If you don't know the song I destroyed here, it is incredible: //Used To Be a Cop// by the Drive-By Truckers; you can find it on YouTube here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=kvJ-lWOZMYg
