This parody won the Silver Medal in AmIright's
Song of the Month of December 2013 Contest!
I started writing this parody song way back five years ago when I was still an active online member of the Swedish Pirate Party. I guess I completed it now kinda sorta for some type of closure, though it turned out pretty darn good, probably my best ever attempt at improving a rap original, so it's got that going for it (and a last minute competition medal too boost).

It's a swan song for old record stores
In this day and age we all download more
A crime wave it's called by voices imperious
Old labels and monop'lists are furious
So they spread out this dirge
"It's a lethally evil scourge"
They are serious, they'll show no quarter
Even for kiddies with tape recorders
No April fool's joke will match up their case
They'd better catch up, new tech's to embrace
They need help, put a mike in their bubble
Like crap from bad rappers their words are all hubble
Multiplied digit profits in danger
So modems are prone to arise anger
New albums come online in half an hour
Then downloaded with - Broadband Power!

Old law supporters are soo very stale
But still out to put "teen crooks" in jail
Decriminalize it an' stop their yapping
'Cos before we know they'll be fascists slapping
A lot, so have them overthrown
And the way - download on!
And let's take down their worst schemes
'Cos they are dated by all online teens
Headed by spreaders not bankruptin' the hood
Mp3 culture's a tech Robin Hood
They should apologize - huntin' the youth
An' they'll bug all and their mums to get proof
A remnant from dark times they wave their wands
Shouting "Copyrighted wrong" an' waltz around
From just cable speed - an' peer to peer - we're empowered
When we possess - Broadband Power!

Do you stand for that you are seeding?
Do you have the files to seed all night?
That's fantastic!

0's an' some 1's shared without permission
Insurrection against copyright tradition
But we stay at home to do the fighting
Pyjamaheddins with files are uniting
We were once normal but now called pirates
Free should be culture except the provide rates
At Laredo, Nutbush City Limits, or In The Ghetto
Files are shared equal and to a prize netto
Clienteled - we grew tired of the greed
Transforming the norm we have started to feed
R-I-A-A's grumpy but on their knees
Some pirates they claim have origin Chinese
But anywhere they are not hard to find
Piracy's not just 'bout the deed but also the mind
This is the new world the net has constructed
But pot minded lawyers has freedom obstructed
There must be new laws, time for reaction
Kick on old stones and demand Satisfaction
Though Napster was first and brought down by justice
This here is now and they shouldn't on kids whiz
Sods!
People online with cable
Since the first uplink they're stabbed at like Able
So defeat the clique - they are antique
Fight for culture and freedom to peek
Against net surveillance we must make a stand
Bloggers on call spread the word through the land
The old distribution is dead and it festers
But kicking the bucket it still gonna pester
Us lot - shouting for money from nullification
New versus old means their vaporization
So if you're in doubt have your mind not deflowered
Try to stand up for your - Broadband Power
