lyrics

A#
You're sitting at your desk
Cmaj
Hitting refresh
F Dm
Over and over and over

You should go to bed
You need to rest
But time seems to be passing slower

You can't seem to find
Any peace of mind
In the light of your computer screen

It's two-thirty AM
And you wonder when
you're ever going to sleep

It's been twenty-four hours since the last page
How much longer will we have to wait

F
For the update
Dm
Who's gonna die
A# Cmaj
What alien kid is gonna make you cry

How will a comic make you broken-hearted
And how many shipping wars will get started
What headcanons will be dismantled
And will the fandom be able to handle
What Andrew Hussie will create
With the next update

And then your heart sinks
When there's no unclicked links
You just want to know what happens next

So to a new tab you switch
To get your fanfiction fix
And read about teen alien sex

But suddenly
Your notifier beeps
You click over and begin to read

You scan the page
And fall into a daze
This one'll bring the fandom to its knees

Three new panels and a pesterlog
Everyone stands still in shock and awe

At the update
Who's gonna die
What alien kid is gonna make you cry
How will a comic make you broken-hearted
And how many shipping wars will get started
What headcanons will be dismantled
And will the fandom be able to handle
What Andrew Hussie will create
With the next update

Within five minute's there's fanart
And after ten the arguments start
At fifteen you get the cosplayers
And at twenty everybody's like it's not fair

But after a while things start to dissipate
Peoples' ships are sunk and it's a bit too late
To argue about what's canon now
Cause no one really understands it anyhow
And all there's left to do is wait

For the next update
