Technic Man (To the tune of Piano man by Billy Joel)

Its nine o’clock on a Saturday

The regular crowd shuffles in

There’s an old man sitting next to me

Building a Lego supercar with power functions and gears

He says, son, can you help with the gear box

I’m not really sure how it goes

But I want it to have a 4 speeds and I knew it before

When I was building these with my kids

Build us some models you’re the Technic man

Build us some models tonight

Well, we are all in the mood for a big supercar

And you’ve got us all building just right

Now Tim at Toy world is a friend of mine

He gets me my Technic for free

And he’s quick with the parts and to get next years sets

But there’s someplace that he’d rather be

He says, Paul, I believe this is killing me.

As the smile ran away from his face

Well I’m sure that I could be working for Lego

If I could get out of this place

Now Robb is Technic builder

Who never had time for a wife

And he’s talking with Davey who’s still building the Unimog

And probably will be for life......

And the waitress is aligning some gears

As the businessmen gets the parts sorted out

Yes, they’re sharing a game they call team model building

But it’s better than building alone

Build us some models you’re the Technic man

Build us some models tonight

Well, we are all in the mood for a big supercar

And you’ve got us all building just right

It’s a pretty good crowd for a Saturday

And the manager gives me a smile

cause he knows that its me they’ve been coming to see

To get Technic built with style

And the 4x4 crawler, it sounds like it is running flat

And the crowd, well they shed a tear

And they sit at the bar and ask why you depart?

And say, man, we are going to miss you Technic skills here......Technic Man (To the tune of Piano man by Billy Joel)

I can't believe this got overlooked! Wow, that was really fun! I love song parodies, especially those for LEGO. Great job!

[Sir Brickalot]

Woah, awesome!

Thanks for the feedback :)

OK, now that is just terrible and plain silly. I love it.

I've been working on my own lego version of a song too. Once I get it figured out, I'll share.
