“I have a dream that someday, every GameStop in the world will sell DRM-free CDs full of 100% legal commercial roms of retro games for $2.99 each, with Free-Software-liscensed emulators included, for young gamers to discover at the bottom of the bargain bin.”

~ Dr. Mario Luther King Jr. on How to stop video game piracy

Lyrics[edit | edit source]

I would like to dedicate this song to the fallen Chrono Resurrection Project and to every other cool idea ever stopped by stupid bureaucrats.

Once in a while
Maybe you will feel the urge
To play games of eras long since bygone.
By downloading .SMCs, or even .SMDs,
Like Mario, or Metroid. Breath of Fire, or Ranma.

And  deep in your heart.
You don't think it's all that bad.
As you get, yet another dot RAR.
But when you're getting ROMs, it's like robbing from the stores.
And takin' a crap upon the hood of Miyamoto's car.

So
Don't Download This Rom
They'll throw you in jail and not tell your mom!
Play it on your TV
Like you know that you should
Oh don't download this rom

Oh, you don't want to mess
With Nintendo of America's policies [1]
They'll send you a Cease and Desist letter
And if you don't check your mail
Then they'll come over to your house
And confiscate everything you own that has any type of battery!

So Don't Download This Rom
They'll hang you by the neck just like Saddam
Play it on your TV
Like you know that you should
Oh don't download this rom

Don't take away money
And download games for free
Don't you know a crappy remake's on it's way from overseas?
Never mind we don't even keep our own Lifetime Service Guarantees
We promised to our customers back in 1983!

So Don't Download This Rom
And if you do then don't tell anyone who it's from
Play games on your TV
Like you know that you should
Oh don't download this rom

Don't Download this Rom
Hey look at that, it's a cool game
Gotta get me some
Go and find it at a garage sale
Like you know that you should
Oh, Don't Download This Rom

Don't Download This Rom
And if you do, don't tell anyone who it's from
They'll blow up your GameBoy like Nagasaki, Japan
So Don't Download This Rom

Don't Download This Rom
They'll hang you up just like Saddam!
Play it on your TV
Like you know that you should
Oh, don't download this rom

Explanation[edit | edit source]

If you don't understand what this song is about, then read this.

Plans[edit | edit source]

This song is still being written ... and needs more work. Eventually I'm probably going to record it.

When it's done, it will be encoded into a ROM using something like MusicPlayer Advance and will be released for free to the internet ROM scene.

What is the point of doing this?[edit | edit source]

The point of it is to show what an evil arrogant pack of lies this page is.
