Where were you when the Pfhor came knockin'?
Were you on Tau Ceti hunting Chockisens
Or on the shuttle Mirata?
Did you stand there in shock at the sight of that alien ship
teleporting against that black sky?

Did you shout out in anger, in fear for your neighbor
Or did you just sit down and cry?
Did you weep for the defense drones who lost their dear batteries
And pray for the AIs gone rampant?
Did you rejoice for the cyborgs who jumped on the platforms
And sob for the explodabobs left unpunctured?

Did you burst out in pride for the ol' UESC
And the heroes who died short of a save term?
Did you look to Durandal for some kind of answer
And look at the fusion pistol in your hands?

Where were you when the colony stopped turning on that July day?
Teaching children to use transporters
Or yet to be unthawed from cold sleep?
Did you feel guilty 'cause you used Marathon Cheater v1.01?

In a room full of Bobs did you feel alone?
Did you call up Leela and tell her you loved her?
Did you dust off that Marathon Spoiler Guide at home?

Did you notice some texture smearing the first time in ages
Or speak to Gheritt White on the street?
Did you lay down at night and think of tomorrow
Go out and buy you rocket launcher?
Did you reread the Lost Netword Packets
And ponder Cortana's letters?

I'm just a singer of plagiarized songs.
I'm not a real cyborg.
I read the terminals, but I'm not sure I could
Tell you the difference in UESC and UESG.
But I know Jason and I talk to Hamish
And I remember this from when I was young
Mystery and deception are some good things He gave us,
And the greatest is Vid.
Where were you when the colony stopped turning on that July day?
