The Streisand Effect

A joke song based on the poorly-received game series, Garten of BanBan. The Streisand Effect is where people attempt to censor/cancel something, but only making it more popular, which happened to this game. The end of the song features a surprise deathcore-style breakdown.

## Lyrics

*Verse One:*

We’ll never end with the low cost gain of a soulless pig sty

Cutting corners while they tear its life to shreds

Straight from the ass of a greedy, spineless problematic dread

*Verse Two:*

But it only works ‘cus we feed their empty pockets, angry mobs

It reconciles our primal rise feeding burning money as it drops

All the clout has made the demon tantalised

(Watch it grow with your fumes)

Take the time to wonder why

(And maybe cut the bullshit)

*Pre Chorus:*

If we could turn our eyes towards the prize we’ll clean the dirt from our hands

Make them starve of attention

And free the wallet’s bind

If we stop advertising, commercialising their advocated discourse

We can kill the remorse

*Chorus One:*

I made this song in a day

And lemme guess, you found it

(Disguised as shit to sell these words)

(It’s so confounded)

There’s gold in better places now

You just have to find it

The effect of Streisand still repeats

*Verse Three:*

Oh but look there is a red man!

HOLY SHIT THIS GAME IS GREAT

IT’S CHANGED MY LIFE AND I’M ONLY EIGHT

OH WAIT EVERYONE SAYS ITS BAD

NOW I’M SUPPOSED TO HATE

*Verse Four:*

Time to make a burner account

And swamp everyone with death threats

"Your game sucks ass and you should d-"

OH wait It sold more... SHIT!

*Pre Chorus:*

Well gosh darn I messed it up

I should give it up, but instead I’ll rage on your tweets

Show my refund receipt, make an alt account and repeat

One day I’ll eat my actions and make retractions when called out for double standards

Ignorance is bliss, until accountability goes dismissed

*Chorus Two:*

I made this song in a day

And you can’t make any friends in five

(You need a gun to use your mouth)

(And it doesn’t make you more alive)

Ignore that shit heap long ago

There’s gold just find it

Or the effect of Streisand will engrave in the sand

*Bridge:*

(PLAY THE FIRST CHAPTER)

I wanted more

(PLAY THE SECOND CHAPTER)

I wanted more

(AND PLAY THE THIRD CHAPTER)

I wanted more

THEY STOPPED MAKING MORE!

I STILL WANTED MORE!

So I doxxed their parents

(WANTED MORE!)

I defemated their pets

(WANTED MORE!)

I pulled out my gun-

*Spoken Skit:*

(Wait, woah! The fuck is wrong with you? Jesus, guns down!)

(Just, step- step over here.)

(Fuck is wrong with you?)

(You don't just pull out a gun in the office whenever you want, shit's not cool!)

(Come on dude, do better.)

(What, what are you staring at me for?)

(Oh. Oh yeah sure, co- course.)

(It's rich coming from the guy who said "Don't eat ass in the halls".)

(I- I get it. I get it. No means yes. Fine. I get it.)

(What, you think I'm just stalling for time?)

(Hell does that- serve, anyway?)

("I bet you think it's just so you can't refund the seconds I wasted.")

(Screw you, man. Screw, j- look.)

(Just just keep the gun to yourself.)

(Don't bring us into this I want to keep my job.)

(Thank you. Just do better. Fuckin' hell.)

(Anyway what are we on about? Oh yeah. Shit.)

*Outro:*

REEEEEEEEEEEEEE

**BIG GREEN MAN IS COMING FOR YOU**

**IS THAT WHAT YOU WANTED TO HEAR FROM MY SONG OF BANBAN?!**
