Wasting Away in Second Life

written and performed by Niko Donburi

I'm logged on every weeknite
if I'm not it don't feel right
this virtual world is all that I need

Strumming my six string
earning Lindens while I sing
an original song or a parody

Wasting away the day in Second Life
searching through my vast inventory
some people claim that it is just a game
But it's not to you and me....

I don't know the reason
I find SL so pleasing
given the problems I have logging in

always dealing with updates
that give me nothing but headaches
I'm just glad that I don't own a sim

Wasting away the day in Second Life
searching through my vast inventory
some people claim that it is just a game
But it's not to you and me....

A surge blew up my desktop
so I've borrowed a laptop
I can barely log in
with this old Mac Book Pro.

But I'm not complaining
'cause it's entertaining
to see you all grey
and moving so slow

Wasting away the day in Second Life
searching through my vast inventory
some people claim that it is just a game
But it's not, to you and me....

Yes, some people claim that it is just a game
but it's not to you and me.
