The Lyrics

So I got my hands on a copy of the "Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1+2" remake lately, and while I did mod the hell out of the game, I ended up with the series' de facto theme song "Superman" stuck on my mind for days on end. Thought I'd give it a bit of a parodic twist by making it into a tale of a scam baiter, e.g. the likes of Jim Browning who gained notoriety as a grey-hat hacker targeting illicit call centres in South Asia who defraud victims and deprive them of their hard-earned savings.

So here I am
Doing everything I can
Thwarting all their greedy plans
And caution all from online scams

I'm trying to keep
You scumbags off vics*
I'd hack and infiltrate until I bust thee
You're doing it wrong
Phone scammers, so long!
Investigator; not a vigilante

And they feel accused, when I face them goons
These sham call centers should go all away

So here I am
Seeing scammers all the time
Mocking shysters all the time
Baiting fraudsters of their kind

And here I am
Doing everything I can
Thwarting all their greedy plans
And caution all from online scams

How can you sleep
From defrauding vics?
Their savings draining faster by the minute
Can't take anymore
Your conniving posture
I'm making life hell to you 'till you do quit

And they feel accused, when I face them goons
These sham call centers should go all away

Call centres from places far-flung
Yet their methods reeks of dung
You're telling me I have to change
Telling me my PC's plagued
But if all I have to do
Is just fork my hard-earned dough
Drain my money 'till I die
'Tis a sin for you to lie
For you to lie...

So here I am
Seeing scammers all the time
Mocking shysters all the time
Baiting fraudsters of their kind

And here I am
Doing everything I can
Thwarting all their greedy plans
And caution all from online scams
