DIGITAL GIRL, A SHADOWRUN PARODY

(In the Tune of Madonna’s Material Girl)

This song is dedicated to Alice Haeffner


Some IC stops you, Some IC tracks you
They cannot stop me
But a virus that is killing people?
That is exciting

Hackers come and hackers go
But none of them survived (That’s right)
That was before Echo Mirage
Jacked in to bright the fight

[Chorus]
‘Cause we are living in a new digital world
And I am now a digital girl
You know that we are living in a new digital world
And I am now a digital girl.

System wreckers, call us Deckers
we were now the best
But crash virus of ’29
Was different from the rest
Some groups tried and they all died
So Echo Mirage was trained (no way)
Given brand new Cyberdecks
And they got out of our way

[Chorus]
‘Cause we are living in a new digital world
And I am now a digital girl
You know that we are living in a new digital world
And I am now a digital girl
Living in a new digital world
And I am now a digital girl
You know that we are living in a new digital world
And I am now a digital girl

Bio-feedback was a killer
wiped out much of our team
But I am still alive and kicking
as a Ghost in the Machine. .

[Chorus]
‘Cause everybody’s living in a new digital world
And I am now a digital girl
You know that we are living in a new digital world
And I am now a digital girl
Living in a new digital world
Amd I am now a digital girl
You know that we are living in a new digital world
And I am now a digital girl

Summer of 69, a Shadowrun parody

I got my first real six-gun
Oh, from a fence named ‘Slime’
Shot it till my targets bled
Was the summer of sixty-nine

Me and some guys from the hood
Formed a team and we had it made
Slim-jim quit, Slow-D got geeked
Should have known, we’d never get paid

Oh, when I look back now
Those runs seemed to last forever
And if I had the choice
I’d never want to be there
Those were the worst days of my life

Ain’t no point in complainin’
When you’ve got a run to do
Spent my evenings doin’ my legwork
That’s when I was shot by you, yeah

Standin on your safe-house porch
I thought that I was being clever
Oh, and when you pulled that gun
I knew that this would hurt forever
Those were the worst days of my life
