The Lyrics
This is for anybody who's currently going through the perils of Christmas shopping to buy pointless toys that will be out of style within six months.
I have climbed highest mountains
I have run through the fields
For a Playstation 3
For a Playstation 3
I have run
I have crawled
I have scaled Big Wal-Mart's walls
Big Wal-Mart's walls
For a Playstation 3
But the store doesn't have what I'm looking for
But the store doesn't have what I'm looking for
I have gotten bad chapped lips
And have frozen my fingertips
Waiting outside by the fire
For two whole weeks prior (oh Playstation 3)
I have grabbed some Cabbage Patch Kids
I have held a Tickle Me Elmo
Till a chick punched my lights out
And I dropped like a stone
No the store doesn't have what I'm looking for
But the store doesn't have what I'm looking for
I believe in the pre-order process
Then I'll get my kid a Nintendo Wii
A Nintendo Wii
Or a cheap Tamagotchi
I've broken my foot
On some model planes
In toy departments
I'm so ashamed
I'm so ashamed
For following crappy fads
And the stores still don't have what I'm looking for
No the store doesn't have what I'm looking for
The damn store doesn't have what I'm looking for
I have run through the fields
For a Playstation 3
For a Playstation 3
I have run
I have crawled
I have scaled Big Wal-Mart's walls
Big Wal-Mart's walls
For a Playstation 3
But the store doesn't have what I'm looking for
But the store doesn't have what I'm looking for
I have gotten bad chapped lips
And have frozen my fingertips
Waiting outside by the fire
For two whole weeks prior (oh Playstation 3)
I have grabbed some Cabbage Patch Kids
I have held a Tickle Me Elmo
Till a chick punched my lights out
And I dropped like a stone
No the store doesn't have what I'm looking for
But the store doesn't have what I'm looking for
I believe in the pre-order process
Then I'll get my kid a Nintendo Wii
A Nintendo Wii
Or a cheap Tamagotchi
I've broken my foot
On some model planes
In toy departments
I'm so ashamed
I'm so ashamed
For following crappy fads
And the stores still don't have what I'm looking for
No the store doesn't have what I'm looking for
The damn store doesn't have what I'm looking for

If you're as good at PlayStation as you are at writing parodies, once you actually do find and buy the damn thing, we may never see you again!
Fine wordplaystation.
Great job on a great Original Song (OS). Liked the "I'm so ashamed/ For following crappy fads" lines the best.
