The Story Behind The Lens...
Never one to back out of a challenge, I immediately set about penning some lyrics for this spoof song. Unfortunately, I won't be able to get a video performance of "I Don't Like Wednesdays" online for a while but by favouriting this lens or joining my fan club (that would be *here*) you will be amongst the first to know when I finally get one uploaded.
So here it is! The lyrics lens you never realised you'd been waiting for has arrived!
Enjoy!
What's Here?
I Don't Like Wednesdays
Got switched to overload,
There ain't gonna be an update today,
It seems that lensrank has gone cold,
And Poddys doesn't understand it,
He always said it worked good as gold,
And he can see (no reasons)
'Cause there are (no reasons)
What reason do you need to be shown?
(Tell me why) I don't like Wednesdays,
(Tell me why) I don't like Wednesdays,
(Tell me why) I don't like Wednesdays,
I want to shoot the whole day down.
The Squid machine is kept so clean,
And it whirrs for the waiting world,
OhMe feels so shocked,
Joan4's world is rocked,
And their thoughts turned to their own set of stats,
Lensrank updates just didn't occur,
And if anything it just isn't fair,
There could be (no reasons)
Because there are (no reasons)
What reasons do you need, oh, oh...
(Tell me why) I don't like Wednesdays
(Tell me why) I don't like Wednesdays
(Tell me why) I don't like Wednesdays
I'm gonna shoot the whole day down, down, down
I'll shoot it all down.
And all the tweaking's stopped at the laptop now,
Lensmasters are on a break, a while,
And Gil is out, oh and soon we will learn that the live traffic stats are gonna die.
And then the bullhorn crackles,
And the Squid Team tackle with the problems and the how's and why's,
And they can see (the reasons)
'Cause there are (some reasons)
When the traffic forced the server to die, die, oh
The silicon chip in the Squid Server,
Got switched to overload,
There ain't gonna be an update today,
It seems that lensrank has gone cold,
And Poddys doesn't understand it,
He always said it worked good as gold,
And he can see (no reasons)
'Cause there are (no reasons)
What reason do you need to be shown?
(Tell me why) I don't like Wednesdays,
(Tell me why) I don't like Wednesdays,
(Tell me why) I don't like, I don't like,
(Tell me why) I don't like Wednesdays,
(Tell me why) I don't like, I don't like,
(Tell me why) I don't like Wednesdays,
(Tell me why) I don't like Wednesdays,
I want to shoot the whole day down

I feel really bad that it's taken me this long to visit the lens. Just got so busy the last couple of months, but I have to admit you did a great job. Love the lyrics, and thanks so much for the links back to my profile. 5***** for a great innovative lens.

Wednesday is usually a great day for me. I have trouble on Mondays, but I work every Saturday and Sunday.
