My mage song parody

So, I have a 5 and a 7 year old.  We happen to listen to a ton of Jack Johnson.  I'm not sure if that's his target market, by my kids love him.  Anyway, they heard Upside Down from the Curious George movie (which was horrible (except for Will Ferrell as the Man in the Yellow Hat)).  I had the toon in my head as I sat down today.  So mage - here ya' go:

What's a mage?
A glass cannon
Of the arcane.
A vending machine;
Biscuits they create.
They have frost and fire abilities,
But in vanilla WoW they sheeped some things.
Here in Wrath it's a different game:
Frost is useless 'cept in PVP,
DPS-ers use the arcane tree.

I want to change the way that mages pwn
I spec myself into Chilled to the Bone
So Winter's Chill crits all my AoE
Water Elemental does DPS for me
I think my damage is here to stay


Who's to say
Frost spec sucks, but
well, I can try
And as I grind mobs down, I begin to find
They die quickly and easily



I want to change the way that mages pwn
I spec myself into Chilled to the Bone
So Winter's Chill crits all my AoE
Water Elemental does DPS for me
The crits keep comin' and with plenty of haste
well damage keeps comin comin up and up and


Mages pwn
Every way we spec we grind mobs to the ground
I think my damage is here to stay


Please be here to stay
Please be here to stay
Please be here to stay
Until Blizzard decides to nerf me
Until Blizzard decides to nerf me

I don't play my lowbie mage very often - in fact it isn't even on my main server.  Perhaps in Catacylsm I will roll one.  I do think mages have suffered huge changes over the years.  It's not a bad thing, all the classes have changed, and min/max specs have changed.  I still love to see lower geared mages who know their class out dmg higher geared ones that don't.  Mages are probably my favorite example of this.  So - mages - whatever your spec: CHEERS!
