After all the fancy Photoshopped images and animated gifs tributing Valve's annual Summer Sale, the Internet finally got a catchy, well-produced song. It's made by Temp0, who's mostly known for his StarCraft II music videos, but after listening to this he really should continue to expand his repertoire.
The song is more or less about our wallet and temptation, as you can see by the full lyrics in the video's description, transcribed here:
Every eight hours
I refresh that page to see what comes my way
Even tomorrow
I can still cash in on deals I missed today
How did I afford that?
Now my library is filled from Day to Z
Purchased a Four-Pack
I don't even have 3 friends to play with me
Man I wish these games were free
Then I could have bought a Wii
Now I have no more money
Steam Summer Sale steamrolled my wallet
every flash deal I bought it
Now I got 3 games that'll be cool for a day (CHOO CHOO)
Steam Summer, Steam Summer Sale steamrolled my wallet
Every single bundle I've got it
Now I got 99 games that I may never play (CHOO CHOO)
Every 8 Hours
I put in my vote and hope that it can win
I still haven't showered
Cuz my game lost and I wait to vote again
OH what a crisis
All these games I bought on impulse thanks to Steam
Tried to play Crysis
But I still don't have a good enough machine
And it makes me wanna scream
As I'm staring at the screen
How did I get into this crazy situation
And what the hell was I smoking on
when I bought this Train Simulation
Steam Summer Sale steamrolled my wallet
every flash deal I bought it
Now I got 3 games that'll be cool for a day (CHOO CHOO)
Steam Summer, Steam Summer Sale steamrolled my wallet
Every single bundle I've got it
Now I got 99 games that I may never play (CHOO CHOO)
