    The song is from Monty Python's Meaning Of Life. Language and juvenile/adult themes. It's the second song from the bottom. No pun intended.

    It's not mine, but I still sing "Pretty Fly (Cause I Like Pie)" when I hear "Pretty Fly (For A White Guy)".

    I've been to cities that never closed down
    From Crystal to Darkmount and Iacon town
    But no matter what planet or system I roam
    I'll always call Cybertron home.

    I've crewed on spaceships and shuttles galore
    As soon as I touch down I'm launching once more
    But my fuel pump still yearns for those spi-res and domes;
    I'll always call Cybertron home.

    All the senseless slaughter
    Echoed down the ages
    A futile and factional fray.
    And 'though our world is older, and colder,
    Still I hope I'll return there some day

    (When) We are two peoples united as one,
    And all of our starships come back from far suns;
    Then I'll realise something that I've always known -
    I'll always call Cybertron,
    (always call Cybertron,)
    Always call Cybertron home!

    The slow speed of light urged the first hyperdrive,
    Then Spanner invented a new way to travel.
    Built into his bridge by the 'Cons while alive
    So the delicate void wouldn't start to unravel.
    But the stresses of stars gave him gravity-scars,
    And then black-hole-linked Megatron blew him to char
    Fear of death led a Star-Mangled-Spanner to waive
    Freedom's choice; even now, as a corpse he's enslaved.

    Scratching down a filk to lyrics someone's requested
    Or maybe suggested,
    I hope that I won't break it
    Muppetational in scope
    My goal: to remake it
    Or failing that, fake it (Ya!)
    I'll find a goal and there I'll take it


    How about a line
    That speaks of TV shows?
    Is G1 the best or is it overexposed?

    What about a verse
    (Wait a mo, wait a mo)
    That says the comics are best?
    Pick a continuity and throw out the rest.


    Movie threads can sometimes get a bit controversial
    A two-hour commercial
    For Hasbro corporation
    Killed off half the G1 cast, ol' Starscream was toasted
    (He came back re-ghosted)
    Was Season Three an abberation?


    Moving' right along - hey, G2, where did you go?
    Wait 'till ninety six to see a new TV show.

    Then we have the Beasts
    (not a truck, not a truck!)
    The fuzzballs stole the show
    Love it, hate it, Beast Machines would change what we know.


    Ladder truck for Prime, and fighting Predacon forces
    With lengthy discourses
    But static animation
    Now Armada, Energon and Dreamwave revivals
    Ensure the survival
    Of our obsessive fascination


    Alternator tech
    And toys and fans and Cons
    I think we've hit the big time
    More than twenty years on.

    You're cruel, but I
    Can't run, won't hide
    Your looks, could kill
    My pain, your thrill

    I want to love you but we're fighting instead
    I want to hold you but I'm Maximal, you're a Pred
    I want to kiss you but you fill me with dread
    My friends say waste you 'cause your lips are Predacon poison

    You're poison running through my brain
    Poison
    Struggle 'gainst these thoughts in vain

    I'm yours
    We fought
    Your web
    I'm caught
    Can't break
    Your net
    You'll be
    Mine yet

    I hear you calling and I cannot resist
    I'd crawl through lava just for one more chance of a kiss
    I know we're enemies but I shoot to miss
    I'll be a target for those lips of Predacon poison

    You're poison running through my brain
    Poison
    Take up arms now, once again
    Poison

    One shot, could kill
    My pain, your thrill

    I want to love you and my heart rules my head
    I want to hold you but you've bound me tight in your thread
    I want to kiss you, all my reason has fled
    I think I'm fated to go down to Predacon poison

    You're poison running through my brain
    Poison
    Attraction I can not explain
    Poison

    I want to love you but my friends have all said
    Desire to hold you only means I'll quickly be dead
    I like to think that I can see what's ahead
    I know my destiny - succumbed to Predacon poison

    Our fate it binds me, I'm enchained
    I'm poisoned, oh no
    Spider's weapon, hero's bane
    Share my life, my joy, my pain
    Poison
    Spurn me, burn me, I remain
    Poisoned

    - Our world is shattered and our people torn by war
    (Our) conflict ever grows and yet we can't deny our core
    (We) drink from power's source and light the fire in our eyes
    (With) crystal hearts and hands of steel - we're robots in disguise

    Transformers
    More than meets the eye
    Transformers
    Robots in disguise

    (Is) This the will of Primus or some evil Quintesson?
    (Will) We forever battle in a war we all prolong?
    Immortal strife our destiny, we tarnish and destroy
    (Is) Free will an illusion, are we nothing more than toys?

    Transformers
    Destiny devised
    Transformers
    Cybertron arise

    Millennia have come and gone and seen our endless fight
    (These) Autobots, Decepticons, consigned unto the night
    (And) Silent voices wonder if the day will ever come
    (To) Lay our weapons down at last and say that all are one

    Hey fans - Why didn't you warn me?
    Why didn't you say I'd become like you?
    Did you just let me go out, onto the net -
    Now fan-spawned sites have captured me too.

    So I put filks on the net, wrote a fanfic quatrain
    Tried a site of my own, learned of "writer's block" pain;
    I've spent all my nights locked in role-playing games
    And it felt so good, I wanna do it again.

    Hey now - you're sitting there grinning;
    'Cause I found toys were something I had to own.
    Bought an Opt'mus Prime, and Seeker jets.
    I know addiction now, but I just can't leave it alone!

    So I spent cash on the toys, now my wallet's in pain
    The BotCon I loved, I did more of the same!
    Found adminning bites, on those role-playing games
    But it felt so good, I'd do it over again.

    And I watched shows for the Truck, slowed it down frame by frame
    And the monkey stuff, guess I'd catch it again.
    I wanna see it again, just cos it borrowed the name, hey hey!
    Ohh, think it's so good... hey?

    Hey group - since I'm posting -
    What was it like, when 'here' was young?
    Guess the names change, and it's not the same,
    But all in all, we're still encored as number one!

    So I watched all of the shows, learned the voice actors' names
    A link to my site got me minutes of fame
    My sketching improves, Khanna's style is my aim
    If I'm not so good, I can redo it again

    And I scanned sites on the net, till the art filled my brain
    Read TrypticonX, wondered who was insane
    I learned how to filter the best from the lame
    But I read it all, and I'd do it again.

    And I lurked on a.t.t, 'til I had to declaim -
    And it felt so good, I'll maybe do it again.

    Are you ready for action
    Are you ready for war
    Choose a face and a faction
    Choose a powerful core

    Are you willing to face it
    Are you willing to die?
    Will you rise and embrace it?
    Are you ready to fly?

    Instruments of destruction
    Pawns to die today
    Violence and corruption
    Flexing powerplays

    Does it really matter
    If you smash or bounce
    As you drown in the chatter
    Take a ton for an ounce

    And when the night's a nation
    You've defied the storm
    Define your own creation
    Take it and transform

    Instruments of destruction
    Tools to find a way
    Pylons of construction
    Exist in disarray

    What's in an existence?
    Why continue to fight?
    Why the spark of resistance?
    Why the howl in the night?

    And when destruction's over
    You've survived the storm
    Leave the world behind now
    You are now transformed
