Default Dominions Songs

I noticed there didn't really seem to be a thread for this. Haiku, yeah. Poetry, yeah. But no full-fledged songs. Besides, it looks like those threads are long dead, so I figured I'd start a new thread for SONG. Write your own, adapt someone else's lyrics, whatever. Of course, I'll contribute with a song based on Pink Floyd's "Another Brick in the Wall" (which I did while bored). I like to call it "Ode to Monkey PD". I make no claims as to quality.

We don't need no monkey PD
We don't need no Sticks and Stones
No strength, no attack, no defense
Markata, have no saving grace
Hey! Markata! Get back in and fight!
All in all you're just another useless monkey
All in all you're just another useless monkey

Seems like Gandalf can't even write his bad idea for a dominions song: same advice to you, stick with trying everything you can with mods (btu without ever creating something actually playable yourself as far as I know) or stick with your daytime job.

I'm thinking I'm going to have to say this quite a few times

I dont blame you for not knowing. My mods dont tend to make it to the mod lists.
Like my maps. You tend to have to visit my site for them.

And I probably will finish a few songs now that we have a thread for it. I write parody songs all the time. But they are mostly DnD or Hacking topics.

Sung to the tune of "Losing My Religion"

Thats me in the corner
Thats me in the fortress
losing my dominion
I want to break the seige
but I dont know if I can do it
Oh no I attacked too soon
or not quite soon enough
I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
when you saw my pre-tend-er die!

I love parodies and have over a thousand in my iPod.
I also love cover songs. In my head this is done to the version by the Gregorian Chant Masters.

Which of your mods didn't make it to the list? If there are any of your mods missing in the list, why don't you add them yourself or write in the discussion thread that they should be added? It's not like the additions to the list appear magically. Another option that a few people use is to link to their stuff in their sigs, see Aezeal.

As for your maps, if you're talking about the maps from the random map generator, I believe that there's more than one prominent link to them in the maps and mods subforum.
