American Pie, Fallout 4 style

A long long time ago

I can still remember how

Start music used to make me smile

And I knew if I had my chance

That I could make settlers dance

And maybe they'd be happy for a while



But Bethesda made me shiver

With the downloads they'd deliver

Good news on my XBox

All the free mods they did rock



I can't remember if I cried

When I found my frozen bride

Something touched me deep inside

The day that Highpants had died

So...



Bye, bye the American guy

Fast traveled to the levee but the levee was dry

And them feral ghouls were lugging whiskey and rye

If I drink that I might not die

Survival mode; it's easy to die



Did you find the book of love

Increase charisma with God above

If the good Karma tells you so?

Do you believe in rock and roll?

The Atom Cats will love your soul!

They can teach you how to groove real slow!



Well, I know that you're in love with Nick

'Cause I saw you standing by that dick

You both killed Raider crews

That synth dick has the blues



I was a lonely teenage cave loving dude

Left his wife and made a life so crude

But I knew I had more luck

The day Blue found me good

I started singin'



Bye, bye the American guy

Fast traveled to the levee but the levee was dry

And them feral ghouls were lugging whiskey and rye

If I drink that I might not die

Survival mode; it's easy to die



Now, for ten days we've been with a crew

And moss grows fat on Bloatfly stew

But, that's not how it used to be



When old Blue looked for his lost son

In a suit stolen from ... someone

And a voice that came for you and me



Oh and while Maxon was looking down

My friend Blue stole his coat so brown

The courtroom was adjourned

Mister Danse was concerned



And while Piper wrote some things 'bout me

We shot monsters by the sea

And Three Dog sang from that D.C.

The day the music died

We were singin'



Bye, bye the American guy

Fast traveled to the levee but the levee was dry

And them feral ghouls were lugging whiskey and rye

If I drink that I might not die

Survival mode; it's easy to die



Helter skelter in a radwaster swelter

The birds flew off with a fallout shelter

Bombs are high and falling fast



It landed foul on the grass

The raiders found us at the pass

With that Deacon on the sidelines in a cast



Commonwealth's air was sweet perfume

Lamplight's air could stink a room

We all make fun of Danse

But fairness never got the chance



Back then slavers tried to take the field

Another Blue refused to yield

Do you recall what was revealed

The day the slavers died?

We started singin'



Bye, bye the American guy

Fast traveled to the levee but the levee was dry

And them feral ghouls were lugging whiskey and rye

If I drink that I might not die

Survival mode; it's easy to die



Oh, and there we were all in one place

Goodsprings town lost in space

Hancock had passed some good druuugs.



So come on, Blue be nimble, Blue be cool

Curie's cornered by a ghoul

Sniper fire will now be her friend



Oh and as I watched Blue on the grass

My hands were clenched; I want his ass

No angel born in Hell

Could break Vault Dweller's spell



And as the flames climbed high into the night

To light the sacrificial rite

I saw Preston laughing with delight

The day the bad guys died

He was singin'



Bye, bye the American guy

Fast traveled to the levee but the levee was dry

And them feral ghouls were lugging whiskey and rye

If I drink that I might not die

Survival mode; it's easy to die



I met a dick who had the blues

And I asked him for some happy news

He just smiled and thanked our friend



I went down to Goodneighbor

Where I'd met Blue weeks before

But the bot there said the music wouldn't play



And in the streets the children gleamed

The lovers laughed, and the poets dreamed

But not a word was spoken

Hancock up there tokin'



And the three folk I admire true

Our Hancock, Pipe, and the Dweller Blue

Rode a special boat by the coast

Way up North for a clue

And they were singing



Bye, bye the American guy

Fast traveled to the levee but the levee was dry

And them feral ghouls were lugging whiskey and rye

If I drink that I might not die

Survival mode; it's easy to die



Bye, bye the American guy

Fast traveled to the levee but the levee was dry

And them feral ghouls were lugging whiskey and rye

If I drink that I might not die

Survival mode; it's easy to die
