I guess I'll start the thread... Well, if I send it in, these are the lyrics at the moment.
Why so serious, it's only a game
Don't feel the pain
Don't live in shame
Don't make the claim
That you'll never be the same
It's only a game
I'll take the blame
I mean, I took the fame
For comboing right through your brain
Showing that Dan isn't all that lame
Short fireball and too long a taunt
Make your skin crawl, in dream's I'll haunt
The memory of me kicking your face in
Harder than Chun-Li just face it
There ain't nothin you can do
Cuz I'm the master at Street Fighter 2
It's a disaster when I defeat your crew
And no matter what you do to shoo
Away my victory, you'll always lose
Look at my history, I'm infinite and oh
My reflexes are like my wit and you're too slow
But still remember that in the end
When you're dismembered we'll still be friends
Why so serious, it's only a game
Don't feel the pain
Don't live in shame
Don't make the claim
That you'll never be the same
It's only a game
Throw your controller across the room
Your mood went polar cold like a tomb
Throwing obscenities at me left and right
Mistaken identities today, tonight
Calm down son, it's only a fight
Make a real one, your face'll go white
So let's just stick to what we have now
And like Bart, don't have a cow
Just for fun, just for kicks
Showing each other our combo tricks
Yeah that's it, just play for fun
Even if I flawless victory'd this one
That doesn't matter, really it doesn't
Matters less than my third step-cousin
So don't be serious, destroying my things
Calling me names, breaking my panes
Just be tame
Why so serious, it's only a game
Don't feel the pain
Don't live in shame
Don't make the claim
That you'll never be the same
It's only a game

Why So Serious?
By Steve Durand
Why so serious?
It's mysterious
What your theory is
To me
And I'm curious
What the worry is
That could cause such
Misery
It's a faith of mine
In the grand design
Every cloud is lined
With gold
And I've come to find
That the fates are kind
With this state of mind
That I hold
With your glass half empty worldview you take note of every flaw
And you believe that every action must adhere to Murphy's law
In contrast, please let me remind you of the words I alway say
Despite how bleak things may appear it's always going to be OK
So you're on my list
As a pessimist
Still I can't resist
Your charms
It's a well known fact
Opposites attract
So I want you back
In my arms

Nothing like a Rone Rivendale song. =)
Watch out
here he comes
Blowing his top
Letting it all out
the door we run
there is no fun
His head
is full of smoke
We're all sick
of his tantrums
Better listen
or we'll pay the price
(Why so serious
You're making us delirious
Your temper is mysterious
Hurting me and all of us)
x2
I don't know
What we did
To make you
So enraged
But if we knew
We would surely stop

By The Ill Cricket Crew, for those that like this sort of thing:
pushing and swinging
guys jumping in
too much aggression
not a loss or a win
big men in black shirts
take them away
straight out the front door
to fight another day
why so serious?
why do you mash up our places
in your boots and your braces
take a look around
why don't you simmer down
skinhead, keep your boots on the dancefloor
rudeboy don't want to start a turfwar
you've got to take it easy
why don't you rocksteady
why so serious?
key solo by Deshead
guitar solo by Drunk Todd
stick your nose in where it doesn't belong
stick your fist in a face, you know that it's wrong
stick your left arm in so says the song
sticks and stones all day long
look around
don't you drown
use your head
and sit right down
why so serious?

Why So Serious?
as performed by Octothorpe
with 2 member of the Pathetic Wannabees
lyrics by Jeffery B. Willams of the PWs
Recession is a lesson
I always ignore
it's hard to hit the bottom
when you ain't got a floor
The only stock I got
came in a soup can
Bulls & Bears can't put me
in their hard-times jam
[chorus]
Why so serious
you're making me delerious
Feel like I'm needing some air
Gotta find the exit
before you go and hex it
Gonna make it out by a hair
Congressional solutions
tax-break for the rich
corporate bailout
ain't it a bitch?
Toss the poor a bandaid
cliche's and an adage
then tell 'em they don't qualify
for the Stimulus Package
[chorus]
Why so serious
you're making me delerious
Feel like I'm needing some air
Gotta find the exit
before you go and hex it
Gonna make it out by a hair
[break - change tempo]
It's a slippery slide
when you're on the outside
a grab at magicians' rope
that knot that could save you
will disappear
along with all your hope
So I'm headin' for the railroad
Going down the line
on whatever's headin' out of town
'fore it's 1929
Send me a post-card
at my hobo camp
if when I get there
you can still afford a stamp
[chorus]
Why so serious
you're making me delerious
Feel like I'm needing some air
Gotta find the exit

Why So Serious? Lyrics
my guess is anybody who cares enough to wonder what my lyrics are could just listen a few times, but in case not, here you go. spelling errors are all on purpose, uh, mm-hmm.
hey, i'm just curious...
wicka-wicka-why so serious?
you dudes drive me delirious...
when you take life so serious
(x2)
i gotta question your motives but won't hold it up for a minute
so i'll ask it on a track and hope songfight can get with it
the kid who's wicked is here for spittin' flows and gettin' those
votes, it's my only hope to inflate the ego
so please go click, in return i'll throw sick
verses out into the ether even deeper than the abyss
so we can take three hits, ride 'em and see shit
upon the wall while ya'll are enthralled by the thick scripts i flip
this-is-the-lifestyles-of-the-lowest-class-and-anonymous
so if i can find some humor in it, what's your problem kid
thinkin' fashion and dancin' is your ticket to paid with rappin'
or mean mugs and kevlar vests gonna make people think that you clappin'
you dudes got fifty pairs of shoes and be thinkin' you're gully
know what's gully man? havin' no food up in your belly
this ain't sesame street, so don't be lookin' for telly
if you see red, it's my communist comrades, so now ya'll better tell me...
hey i'm very curious...
wicka-wicka-why so serious?
you dudes drive me delirious...
when you take life so serious
hey, i'm just curious...
wicka-wicka-why so serious?
you dudes drive me delirious...
when you take life so serious
listen as the slick spit drips to hell when sick L
hits stages in a rage and turns pages into wealth
akin to mages using alchemy i'm constantly meltin' these
mics i grip tight cause my flow's prone to ignite
like throwin' a molotov in the dark night
for both revolutionary purposes and outta spite
i'ma hurt you with my tight concepts, assault you
then my punchlines will service as salt for the wounds
i'm here to fade ya, or play ya, like vincent vega
doin' stints, think i'll kill bill with jackie brown and mister pink
my drops known to scorn like hot buttered popcorn
face me and quickly you'll be wishin' i was not born
and two hippies in the early eighties hadn't mated and created
a low down dirty son that's becomin' frustrated
with the mainstream sound, dumb, simplistic watered-down
the question is still pressin' so you gotta tell me now!
(cuz) i'm just so curious...
wicka-wicka-why so serious?
you dudes drive me delirious...
when you take life so serious
hey, i'm just curious...
wicka-wicka-why so serious?
you dudes drive me delirious...
when you take life so serious
you know HOW it is...
and you know WHO it is (the LMNOP aka Sick L)...
you know HOW it is...
and you know WHO it is (VTZ is rockin' these beats as well)...
you know HOW it is...
and you know WHO it is (the LMNOP-to-the-O-T-A-M and-then-yes, U-S)...
you know HOW it is...
and you know WHO it is (VTZ tracks D-O-P-E, no less)
vtz, you makin' it too easy with these bangers, man!
songfight dot org, now you know... that's where this is at... hey! why so serious? i just wanted to know... i'll catch you on the next one...
