Peter's gone

So Peon Peetie is leaving for China for a very long time. 4 months I think. How will we ever survive without his comments and his captions? It scares me too much to think about it. But I guess he'll have a good time, so maybe its worth it. I guess. ;)

Anyway, we wanted to do something for him, as a sort of send off. So we all sat down and discussed it and decided to rewrite the lyrics to "Walk Through The Fire" which is a song from the Buffy The Vampire Slayer musical. Every Tuesday we watch Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and ever since the musical we sing Walk Through the Fire karaoke before we watch a new episode. It is a lot of fun. Anyway, "Walk Through the Fire" holds a very special place in our hearts. We changed the line "walk through the fire" to a more China related one, "have fun in china". Here are the final lyrics:

I go to China and it gladdens me;
I see the future and it's bright.
Why can't I feel?
My friends will cry and squeal,
since I am out of sight.

Across the world, it calls to me,
this great adventure in the East,
to save the day,
and probably get laid,
I think twice, at the least.

So, I will have fun in China.
It's where I'll really shine.
I will have fun in China.
My friends will...

The love I bear is breaking me,
and Peter's packing; it's so wrong!
I hope he cries!
Cuz I will when he flies!
I'd better write a song...

Cuz he is coming to China.
And his friends...
We will bitch and whine.
And, he will have fun in China,
and we will...

Will this do a thing to change him?
Will their crazy food derange him?
Will our Peter be too far to call?
What if Peter starts to miss us?
I'm afraid he will dismiss us!
And, then we'll just sit around and bawl...
We'll cheer him through;
it's what we're always here to do!
And, he will have fun in China!

So, one by one, I say "goodbye."
I guess it's time to face the cold.
But, why I go, I think that they all know.
Hot girls I will behold.

What if China's all a'glitter?
If he stays there, we'd be bitter.
Everything is turning out so dark.
If he's laid there, what a thriller!
I think this line's mostly filler...
On our souls he's left a lasting mark.
Our broken hearts will even start to miss your farts!
And, you are going to China,
to have a grand ol' time.
And, you will have fun in China.
And, we will... pine.
We will pine.
We will pine!
We will pine!

Go time...

And if you are really brave soul, you can download the mp3 (1.3 MB) of us singing it...

Update: thanks to the Fool for typing up the lyrics for me.
