It’s true. I AM currently the world champion...in a game that probably NO ONE CARES ABOUT.
But still...I’ll take what I can get. My current high score is 19,500.
Here’s the game if you want to take a shot at my score: https://www.coolmathgames.com/0-tetroid-3
Protip: Git gud!
Written “live” in my classroom this morning before work started. I used the fine usb mic into Audacity. I sang and played one take. Then added a harmony vocal. Then doubled the guitar. I wasn’t even sure what chords I was playing at some points. It’s sloppy and silly and fun and I love it and wouldn’t change a thing.
Starts on an A - not sure exactly what I did for the other parts.
A
I am the world champion
of Tetroid 3
Yeah that’s me
A
And I am the one who
broke the mold
Maybe cuz
I’m getting old
F#m-A-E
and don’t ya think
it’s a shame
no one really plays it any more
don’t forget my name
and you can try it
on Cool Math Games
but i’m the best
even if no one cares
until someone hears this song
and demolishes my high score
and i weep in my bed for hours
because the pain of losing my throne
is so bad
that i have to find an even more obscure
world record to attain

My son loved this, you are very humble and this came across in the best of ways....we are proud of you and we like your song...LOL

Great song form. I love the vocal harmonies, they seem to convey the egotism even better. Nice guitar too.

This is cute and congrats! I like the quiet confessional ambience, almost like its a secret .

Ha, gonna have to get me that game. Need to compete. NEED TO BEAT THAT SCORE! I might be having a bit of a Wilco binge at the moment but I was definitely getting shades of Jeff Tweedy in your vox

I really perked up for "and i weep in my bed for hours." Thank you for the outro. [heart emoji unicode thing]
