A TRIBUTE TO BENOIT AND CO.

Written by myself, originally posted with spelling and capitalization mistakes and without opening as message 12 on NWWWO Delphi Forum Topic: "Well it's gone down'". 

Opening line "That's great, it starts with the workrate" suggested by Justin Shapiro.  Intacts portions of original song italicized. Credit where credit is due.

"It's the End of the Fed as We Know It (And I Feel Fine)"

That's great, it starts with the workrate, Busch and ratings, Kevins vain, and Lenny Lane was not afraid. Known as the Wolverine, listen to the crowd pop- Russo served his own needs, Kevins serve their own needs. Speed it up a notch, wrestle now, ladder started to clatter rungs broke overbooked again. WCW on fire, bought on Ted's whims, a booker for hire, and an internet site. Left Japan for the West. Got over as a Horsemen with the bookers breathing down your neck. All over web reporters baffled, stumped, Wrestleline stopped. Look at that low buyrate! Fine, then. Uh oh, overbooking, popularity, always jobbing but it'll do. Save yourselves, serve yourselves. Kevins serve their own needs, look at your nose bleed hardway after that reverse and that stiff right. You vitriolic, patriotic, slam, fight, bright light, feeling pretty psyched.

It's the end of the fed as we know it.
It's the end of the fed as we know it.
It's the end of the fed as we know it and I feel fine.

Eight o' clock- TV hour. Don't get bought by Sullivan's power. Leave and soon, don't return, watch the federation burn. Walking out, booker burning, bump taking. Don't bother to negotiate. Walk away, walk away. Watch your heel push crushed, uh-oh this means no title this year. Renegade steer clear! A tournament, tournament, a tournament of lies. Offer me solutions, offer me alternatives and I decline.

It's the end of the fed as we know it.
It's the end of the fed as we know it.
It's the end of the fed as we know it and I feel fine.

The other night you dropped to five, WCW tried to divide. Just wait and Vince will sign Mrs. Benoit's son. Deano Machino, Eddy G. too, and Franchise too. Add Perry Saturn and hopefully Flair, then WCW goes boom! Kevs are parasitic, paranoid, book the wrong acts, right? Right.

It's the end of the fed as we know it.
It's the end of the fed as we know it.
It's the end of the fed as we know it and I feel
fine...fine...

(It's time you all had some time to shine)
