A satirical song about the woes of the non-raiding Warcraft player:

 To the tune of Billy Joel's "Piano Man" 

Raider Man

It's nine o'clock on a Saturday The regular crowd shuffles in There's an old troll sitting next to me With bags full of cloth to turn in

He says, son, can you run me through Zul'Gurub I'm not really sure how it goes But it's big and it's leet and I'd know it complete If I wore a raider-man's clothes

La la la, de de da La la, de de da da da

Chorus:

Run us a raid, you're the raider-man Run us a raid, tonight Cause we're all in the mood for some epix And we wish we could find a good fight

Now the alt at the bar is a friend of mine He gets his own twinks for free And he's quick with the lore, except for the Core But that's the place he'd rather be He says, Zill, I believe this is killing me As another alt enters its teens Well I'm sure that I could be the Main Assist If I could get rid of these greens.

La la la, de de da La al, de de da da da

Now Shine is a Timbermaw grinder Who always has "dates" with his wife And he's talking with Zavi, who's still in the AV And probably will be for life

And that warlock is trying to sell Fiery But her customers just want to get stoned Yes, they're sharing a drink they call boredom But it's better than drinkin' alone

Chorus:

Run us a raid, you're the raider-man Run us a raid, tonight Cause we're all in the mood for some epix And we wish we could find a good fight

It's a pretty good crowd for a Saturday And Blizzard gives me a smile 'Cause they know it's my gear they've been coming to see To forget about theirs for a while And my weapon, it flames like a bonfire And my purple gear dazzles their eyes And I stand at the bank and equip as main tank And say, man, what are YOU doin' here?
