Edmund wrote this for Dominick, whose work hours at Nintendo kept interfering with any chance of having dinner with the rest of us on Friday nights before the game. Things looked up when Dom started working at Privateer Press... but on the very first Friday following that, when we were going to take him out for dinner to celebrate his new job, he had to work late. This is written with apologies to BB King.
The thrill is gone
The thrill is gone away
The thrill is gone baby
The thrill is gone away
You know I got a job baby
And I got to work late today
The thrill is gone
It's gone away from me
The thrill is gone baby
The thrill is gone away from me
Although I'm pourin' metal
No Nintendo now for me
The thrill is gone
It's gone away for good
Oh, the thrill is gone baby
Baby its gone away for good
Someday I know get my dinner baby
Just like my friends they said I would
You know it's free, free now baby
I get free product from the mold
It's free, free now
I get free product from the mold
And in 3 months I get health care
But missing dinner's getting old.
