A Musical Tribute to Music Banter (with apologies to Chula)

[Trollheart]

Sing to the tune of "Stairway to Heaven". You may have to Google it: a little-known song by some obscure blues/rock band from the seventies: Copper Airship? Tin Balloon? Something like that. Anyway...


(Soft acoustic guitar intro, with gentle flute added...)

There's a forum I know, it's a place that I go
It's a place that we call Music Banter.
There are members and mods (some of them are quite odd)
Can be hard just to get a straight answer.

It's a place that we call Music Banter....

There's a sign on the wall, says “No Nickelback fans
We don't need your sort around here.”
And if you can't take a joke or have skin thin as paper
Then you might just find yourself in tears.

(Guitar)

Ooh, it makes me wonder...
Ooh, it makes me wonder...

There's a feeling I get from the people I've met
That they know everything about music.
In my time here I've seen people pleasant and mean
And ****storms that have shaken the forum.

Ooh it makes me wonder...
Ooh it really makes me wonder...

And it's whispered that soon a guy called Janszoon
Will appear to lead us all to freedom.
And a new day will dawn; drama will be gone
For he is the true voice of reason.

(Electric guitar and percussion)

Ooohhh...

If there's a Frownland in your bathroom, don't be alarmed now:
He's just composing his new album.
Yes there are only two tracks on it, both an hour long
But that's just the way he likes to do these things.

And it makes me wonder...
Ohhhh....

Your head is throbbing and it won't go, in case you don't know
The Batlord's calling you to join him.
Make sure you bring along your wallet cos he's piss poor
And don't expect him to stand his round.

(Unnecessarily long and wanky guitar solo – go go Jimmy!)

And as we wind on down the road
Most of us uglier than toads
We talk of metal, rap and rock
And the latest President Trump shock.
Hey man, what albums are you digging?
Yeah, well bruv that's just your opinion
And if Trollheart makes just one more thread
We're gonna kill that **** stone dead.
Who's still in the Album Club?

(Acapella)
