my feeble attempt
To the tune of Jingle Bells...
CHORUS: Ohhh ...
Neopets, Neopets, you have gone astray
Used to be so fair and free
now you've got your ray
~~~~~~~~
There is this great site
that we all flocked to
pets and toys and games
oh! the lab ray too
Chatting on the boards
was such fun to do
now you have to keep it zipped
or you'll be frozen too
CHORUS
Guilds and boards were once
a safe place to go and win
something cool and random
till too many scammed
Now we have these rules
don't know what they mean
cause they're incomplete and vague
and changing at a whim
CHORUS
games have always been
a way to make np
but they have so may bugs
you may need to flee
auctions, trades were cool
restocking was too
now if you're too fast and good
you're iced for breaking rules
CHORUS
autobots abound
freezing for a word
or a dumb report
that is just absurd
mods and staff are few
and the glitches flow
how are we to play the game
when we are scared to go
CHORUS
TCG and toys
rake the money in
someone's making tons
while the players flinch
site is often down
programmers maligned
server problems take a backseat
to the bottom line
CHORUS
Things have got to change
fun is hard to find
when you've always got to worry
access will be denied
massive freezings now
seem to be the norm
used to be it was just baddies
now it's everyone
Ohh...
Neopets, Neopets, you have gone astray
you were once so fair and fun
now you've got your ray
