New York Slice - https://geni.us/newyorkslice Lyrics: If you’ve played Pandemic, you already get it How wonderful board games can be It’s a one hour, box-sixed, amazing, repeatable, immersive, escape room for free So this song goes out to the rest of you Those who’ve never played Codenames before Board games are no longer boring It’s not just for geeks anymore! If you take an interest in the clothes you wear The fedora explorers are ready to share If you are socially able You’re invited to the table It’s not just for geeks anymore! Gaming is spreading to people with mates Those who don’t struggle when going on dates We’re no longer intolerant To those who wear deodorant It’s not just for geeks anymore! It’s for fashion conscious females Who like to socialise It’s for well-adjusted weight-lifters Wanting more than exercise So quit with your selfies, and come have some fun Take shots at your friends, playing Cash ‘n’ Guns There’s so much to respect You don’t need a bearded neck It's not just for geeks And German families And old folks trying to stave off their Alzheimer's disease And the hippies who refuse to even own a TV And the brainy mathematicians And those wholesome loving Christians And actors you've sort of heard of And the kids with skin conditions Although they’ll only grow up to be geeks or mathematicians Now I've lost my train of thought Oh yes, it's not just for geeks anymore! (Becca Scott) I’m so over Overwatch I’d rather go to yoga class But Catan? Nah, i’mma stay and kick your ass (Rodney Smith) I like kayaking down rivers jogging six days of the week But on Sunday I’m a zombie killing freak (Quintin Smith) I like playing games while eating cheese and drinking wine I've never posted theories ‘bout films I like online We’ve got Kristen Bell, The Green Bay Packers, Woody Harrelson Daisy Ridley, Tottenham Hotspur, Penny Cruz and Wil Wheaton! Fashionistas and Hipsters, you know what to do Buy a Ticket to Ride and Sushi Go too There's really nothing stopping thee We’re not talking Monopoly It's not just for geeks No it's not just for geeks You'll be absolutely hooked in but a matter of weeks, Board games are not just for geeks anymore...
