As I was going sniping o'er the two fort water
A scout had come a stealing, and my satchel he was holdin',
I first produced my pistol, and then produced my kukri.
Saying stand and deliver or I'll send you to your maker.

Chorus:
musha ring dumma do damma da
wait for the E G O
wait for the E G O
there's Jarate in the jar-o​

I gathered up the intel, and it made a pretty story.
I put it in my satchel and I took it to the engi.
He said and he swore, that he'd keep it with his sentry,
but the devil take the fomen, for the win is never easy

I went to his dispenser, all for to take a healer,
I dreamt of scopes and lasers and for sure it was no wonder.
But the spy planted charges and disappeared like drying water,
I called out to the heavy to be ready for the slaughter.

I lined up my laser on his back as he did travel
The team was all around me and as the bullet left the barrel.
A grenade sent him flying and he landed in the water,
But I couldn't shoot the water so I lost the god forsaken.

If anyone can aid me, it's my brother who's a soldier,
If I can find his station down in Egypt or Black Mesa.
And if he'll come and save me, we'll go fighting with Edge Gamers,
And I swear he'll treat me better than the one who killed my engi.

Now some men take delight in the drinking and the roving,
But others take delight in the gambling and the smoking.
But I take delight in the scope that brings me nearer,
With the red dot of my laser that will send them to their maker.

Nice Quaffer!! Now I must go and find a cold brew to help me put away all the memories of the seventies...
 
We need to make actual recordings of all your songs Quaffer!

Sure we'll burn a CD and sell it on the eGO mall.
Of course the copyright infringement law suits would be our financial ruin.:chair:
 
so I was listening to random songs on Windows Media Player today, and Whiskey in the Jar came on. I was all like, "OMG, JARATE IN THE JAR!" then I was like, "wait a minute..."
 
Great rendition of a classic Irish folk tune Qua! You got the cadence right on. Good job. It was a little confusing though as I was singing it in me head while trying to read your new words :confused1:

For those of you who don't know, the original tune predates the Thin Lizzy version by about 250+ years.

Hmmm... Hasn't this been posted before? I think I have it saved in my Quaffer's Almost Contributions folder...

No this is not a new thread. Someone just snuck down into the lab and whispered "More Power" in Igor's ear.
