EVERQUEST
(sung to 'Cats in the Cradle' by Harry Chapin)

My friend arrived just the other day
He came to the house in the usual way
But he'd brought Everquest, a new game to play
I made a character that very day
And I was levelin 'fore ya knew it and as I grew
I said I'm gonna be like Tal yeah,
You know I'm gonna be like you

CHORUS:
Well there's darks in the zone and the hunt is on
I run with GL, that's Giliath Lang not Londe
When ya loggin off dad, I don't know when
But we'll get together then, yeah
You know we'll have a good time then

My girl turned four just the other day, she said
Thanks for the game dad, come on let's play
Will you install it for me, I said not today
I've got a quest to do, she said that's okay
And she walked away but her smile never dimmed, it said
I'm gonna be like him, yeah
You know I'm gonna be like him

CHORUS

Well she started playing just the other day
She did so well I just had to say
Girl, I'm proud of you, wanna group for a while
She shook her head and she said with a smile
What I'd really like dad is to finish this quest
See you later dad, you're the best

CHORUS

Thanos is long since retired, but my girl still plays
I said to her just the other day
I said, I'd like to game with you, if you don't mind, she said
I'd love to dad, if I could find the time
You see a new zone is up and the planes await
But it's been sure nice talkin' to you dad
It's been sure nice talkin' to you
And as I shook my head it occured to me
She'd grown up just like me
My girl was just like me

CHORUS
