Take me down to the Skyway City. Where the bad guys are green, and the trainer's a kitty.

Just a' hero
livin' above the street
I'm a hard case
that's tough to beat
-
I said "Hey man, there's something that you oughta know.
I tell ya Park Avenue leads to King's Row!"

In steel canyon after dealing in WentWorths
Up in the university thinking if splicing exotic materials will work
After finding out you could lose your life
I tell everybody steer clear of WentWorths or you can lose your dice
Come next morning I read on the paper
Somebody lost their life See! Proof! Later!
-
Lost again in the donut cave chamber.
How do I get out, I can never remember.
The walls are closing in, getting hard to breathe.
I can hear the Boss, but I can't see.
Still just a noob, can you believe?
-
Oh where do we go now?
Where do we go now?
Where the witches and goblins play
Down where paranormal is normal
where do we go now?
-
Our Paragon home crumbled like stone
And we fell heavy into the gray
These days of loss which is felt by all
Will blow away, some say
So we'll kneel down,
Wait for now
We'll all kneel down,
On familiar ground
And we will wait, we will wait for you
And we will wait, we will wait for you
A heartless company broke our steps
For corporate greed and Won
We may forgive but we won't forget
What we lost, and is still gone.
'Cause we will wait, we will wait for you
And we will wait, we will wait for you
Keep your eyes on the prize, hold fast to the dream
Let hope come down like rain
There will come a day, there will be a way
We'll go back To Paragon again.
'Cause we will wait, we will wait for you
And we will wait, we will wait for you

Down at the subway in steel canyon, eating a banana, minding my own business,
Then I hear a 'BOOM' from behind followed by shaking, I realize there are thugs causing a reckoning,
I tell em "you better stop that or I'm going tell a hero then you're gonna get whacked!"
One of em shot a rocket at me, but I parried with a blade ROCKING STEEL!
So I ran towards em quick, dodged the first guy made em slip on a BANANA PEEL!
Next time I'll try to be more wary, these thugs I just whipped weren't even really scary.
-
It's time for Freedom Phalanx!
They're heroic to the max!
So just sit back and relax,
They'll fight 'till they collapse!
They're Freedom Phalanx!

Ice Ice Blaster... dun dun dun dunununuh
Ice Ice Blaster... dun dun dun dunununuh
Stop! Refrigerate and listen... Ice is back with a brand new mission
Chilblain grabs a hold of you tightly, frozen like an iceberg daily and nightly
Will it ever melt, yo? I don't know. Mez-resist the hold, you're still slowed
Chilling Embrace rocks the beasts and the vandals, Bitter Freeze Ray turns em into ice candles
dun dun dun dunununuh... dun dun dun dunununuh

Take me down to the Skyway City. Where the bad guys are green, and the trainer's a kitty.
I recall a web video comic based off of CoH. One of the characters was singing their version of Paradise City.
"Take me down to Paragon City. Where the <insert you know which grouphere> are green and the..."
That's as far as that guy got before he was told to shut up.
Unfortunately, it's been a while since I saw that video comic. So, I don't know where to find it.

Look to the cave
Hide in the corner to the right
And I'll fire
And they'll run
And we'll die
All to no avail
All to no avail
This is the last time I'll aggro you
And this is the last time I'll pull you
I wish I could
I wish I could
-
Sometimes I feel
Like I don't have a sidekick
Sometimes I feel
Like my only friend
Is the city I live in
The city of heroes
Lonely as I am
Together we fly
I run on her streets
'Cause she's my companion
I walk through Cherry Hills
'Cause she knows who I am
She sees my good deeds
And she kisses me windy
I never wakie
Now that is a lie
-
Some good ones here.
however...I can't think of any rhyme or poetry to add. :P
-
Here's one that I grew up on in the early 60's. Not poetry, but a bit of overly dramatic prose. Not "exactly" CoH material, but it kind of catches the spirit of the game:
Faster than a speeding bullet. More powerful than a locomotive. Able to leap tall buildings in a single bound. Look! Up in the sky! It's a bird! It's a plane! It's (Post Your Hero's name here) Yes, it's PYHNH , strange visitor from another planet who came to Earth with powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal men. PYHNH Who can change the course of mighty rivers, bend steel in his bare hands and who, disguised as (You Know Who) , mild-mannered reporter for a great metropolitan newspaper, fights the never ending battle for truth, justice and the American way!

I feel you guys.. it's been a long time
Without our home.. can you imagine were so low
But rise up.. everybody's fighting to ride up
Into the day.. when our game breaks those damn chains
No longer bound.. the news spreading all over town
From the West coast.. all the way to East Rome
We're all home.. finally y'all we're all home.

Hey Trip, that rhyme definitely matches your icon pic. In my imagination I pictured your icon character clearing the stage and dropping that beat lol

Haha, nice! Now I'm seeing the same thing. And I like it ;D
(btw that pic is from a board game called Conquest of Planet Earth, by my favorite game company Flying Frog (http://www.flyingfrog.net/). Great way to pass some time if you like thematic board games)

Take it to the end of the line.

Rezin' up, back on the street
Did my time, took my chances
Went the distance
Now I'm back in the plaza
Just a toon and his will to respawn
So many times, it happens too fast
You trade your acc for enrage
Don't lose your grip on the taskforce of the hour,
You must fight just to keep them alive
[Chorus]
It's the flame of the torch
It's the thrill of the fight
Risin' up to the challenge
Of our nemesis
And the last known survivor
Kills his skulls in the night
And he's watching us all with the
Flame of the torch.
Face to face, out in the heat
Hangin' tough in strigga island,
They stack the buffs,
Still we take to the street
For the AOE with the skill to survive
[Chorus]
Risin' up straight to the top
Had the guts, got the glory of the moment
Went the distance
Now I'm not gonna stop
Just a man and his will to respawn
[Chorus]
The flame of the torch
The flame of the torch
The flame of the torch

Nicely done.
Wrong song, but nicely done.

Hey Ya'll. I love your rhymes. Everybody pitching in and giving their best verse. I honestly try to get the tempo of everyone's music here, but it is hard to tell sometimes lol. You know what would be really sweet is that we all volunteered to take our rhymes to YouTube. Maybe form a community where we give our thoughts, rhymes, songs, whatever.

I did this a while back to Airplane's 'We Built This City'
We built this city, we built this city on fun and friends
Built this city, we built this city on fun and friends
You might not know me or recognize my face
But we all care who goes to that place
Knee deep in the villains enjoying the fight
Now the bad news eating up the night
Someone always playing corporation games
Who cares they're always changing corporation names
We just want to play here... someone stole the stage
They call us unimportant.. write us off the page
You play your hero, listen for the glowies, don't you remember
We built this city, we built this city on fun and friends
It's just another Sunday, on a King's Row street
CEO's have got the choke hold, oh then we just lost the beat
Who counts the money underneath the bar
Who rides the wrecking ball in to our avatars
Don't tell us you need us, 'cos we're not a bunch of sheep
Looking for Paragon, cause love of the game runs deep
(I'm looking out over that IP bridge
Out on another gorgeous sunny Saturday, watching the Tsoo and Family)
Don't you remember the fun?
(It's your favorite game, in your favorite game world
The city by the statue, the city that rocks, the city that never sleeps)
Boombox rocks the music, do the monkey dance, don't you remember
We built this city, we built this city on fun and friends
We built this city, we built this city on fun and friends
Built this city, we built this city on fun and friends
