Written in the midst of the MySpace craze, before people switched to the inferior Facebook. The song thanks most of the artists sampled int he song, but inadvertantly left out The Art of Noise, and Front 242.
lyrics
C'mon-a my place
Down at MySpace
C'mon-a my place
Down at MySpace
- Making friends is all that I do
I betchya five bucks I've got way more than you
C'mon-a my place
Down at MySpace
C'mon-a my place
Down at MySpace
- Thirty-two thousand seven sixty-eight friends
- And the list of requests never ends
The number of friends you've got, I'll match ya
Give me a week and I'll surpass ya
If you're perpetratin', I'll catch ya
'Cause you'll be dissed - by a capatcha
Each week, brand new videos comin' atchya
every one be so intense, thatchya
beggin' for more, the kudos I score
Racking up hits while you check what's in store
CHORUS
It's the center of the the hottest social scene
Down at myspace (2x)
C'mon-a my place
Down at MySpace
C'mon-a my place
Down at MySpace
- You better stop by and read my profile; that is
- If you wanna be a person with status
C'mon-a my place
Down at MySpace
C'mon-a my place
Down at MySpace
- I'm the next kubrick; all my films get kudos
- like the family dinner fight that breaks out in Judo
Made polls and slideshows with Shockwave Flash
My profile pics are all the smash
Surfers flock to them like a spring break bash
Post new ones up and watch them dash
Get so much traffic that the servers crash
With this demand I should charge cash
money. Isn't it funny?
Getting mad requests from all the playas and honeys
CHORUS
C'mon-a my place
Down at MySpace
C'mon-a my place
Down at MySpace
- I post these songs, and everyone listens
- You read my web log, you'll click a subscription
C'mon-a my place
Down at MySpace
C'mon-a my place
Down at MySpace
- My friends are like groupies. I call them my minions
- They join my groups just to read my opinions
Living' this large, it feels so great
Homes lay down cash to be in my top eight
Not my friend? You're just some lightweight
Another Kevin Smith fan without a date
Tom is jealous of how high I rate
He can't compete; that's layin' it straight
Up. Don't mean to sound abrupt.
I'm not conceited, Just tellin' whaz sup!
CHORUS
Yo, Word; Aw, man, that was smooth.
Now I'd like to thank those who slipped us the groove:
- MC Hawking, Kraftwerk, Debbie Gibson, Jazzy Jeff
- Dirty Sanchez, Tina Root, you know your beats are def
- there's Devo and Falco and Paula Abdul
- I pay my respects cos you guys rule!
- You wanna chill and you know you will, well, then you know the place
- I'm thru with my rhyme, but I know the time. I'll see ya down at MySpace
- Halla back
