Song Lyrics:

“Filk-Star” Lyrics - Curt Arndt I'm through with standing in line at Cons to get in I quit playing Magic ‘cuz I'm never gonna win Got myself a podcast but I know there’s more out there for me. (Tell me what you want) I want to travel cross country as The Wandering Geek Putting out a podcast every frackin’ week Talking to the geeks and fan-boys just like me. (Yeah, so what you do) I'll sing parody songs with no limits Do one with Spock and Bilbo in it Finish at the Con and have the fan-girls wait for me. (Been there then what) I wanna post on FuMP and then who knows A spot on the Doctor Demento Show Somewhere between Ookla and Luke Ski is fine for me. (So how ya gonna do it?) I'm gonna live this life of geekness and games I'd even grow my hair and pick a weird name. [Chorus] 'Cause we all just wanna be big filk-stars Never see my house, touring in my car The girls wear corsets and they call me cheap The Con Suite’s open, Hey lets go eat We'll hang out where exhibitor are Check out VIPs and genre stars Every sci-fi fan-boy’s Gonna wind up there Oo, Chain-mail bikini We all stop and stare and well Hey hey I wanna be a filk-star Hey hey I wanna be a filk-star. I wanna do my music at game conventions Help out other geeks with podcast mentions Do a couple of reviews So I get game swag for free. (Latest gaming... on the house) Wear a Geeklable shirt hey, what’s fashion Gonna LARP up at the Dracula mansion Find a hot gamer chick that’ll hold my dice bag for me. (So how ya gonna do it?) I'm gonna live this life of geekness and games I'd even grow my hair and pick a weird name. [Chorus] 'Cause we all just wanna be big filk-stars Never see my house, touring in my car The girls wear corsets and they call me cheap The Con Suite’s open, Hey lets go eat We'll hang out where exhibitor are Check out VIPs and genre stars Every sci-fi fan-boy’s Gonna wind up there Oo, Chain-mail bikini We all stop and stare And I'll hide out in a private room With a rhyming dictionary and Sci-fi who's who Supposed to post a song haven’t done it in a while That’s why I got Tom Smith on speed dial well. Hey hey I wanna be a filk-star. I'm gonna make-up songs that assault the senses My next one might be ‘bout a pez dispensers Any freaked out topic can be a filk song Just make the chorus catchy so they sing along. [Chorus] Well we all just wanna be big filk-stars Never see my house, touring in my car The girls wear corsets and they call me cheap The Con Suite’s open, Hey lets go eat We'll hang out where exhibitors are Check out VIPs and genre stars Every sci-fi fan-boy’s Gonna wind up there Oo, Chain-mail bikini We all stop and stare And I'll hide out in a private room With a rhyming dictionary and Sci-fi who's who Supposed to post a song haven’t done it in a while That’s why I got Tom Smith on speed dial, well Hey hey I wanna be a filk-star Hey hey I wanna be a filk-star.
