    New lyrics to Gloria Gaynors "I will Survive" dedicated to our fav telco.

    Threw this together quickly, if anyone wants to add in better lyrics reply to this thread.

    At First I laughed
    I was your way online
    Knowing u just had to live
    with a slow landline
    But u went through so many bills
    thinking this is wrong
    I grew strong
    I learned how to keep u on
    and so you're back
    esats had u kicked
    I just did my stalling dance
    and used my marketing tricks
    U still have no choice
    i'm ever the monopoly
    I still don't bill by the second
    and its pleasing alfie

    Go on , stick in our cd
    accept the massive bills
    yet we'll say your lucky
    weren't you the one who thought a new isp would mean goodbye
    you think I'd unbundle
    you think I'd give up the last mile
    Oh no, not I
    I will monopolise
    as long as the odtr do nothing
    I know I will stay alive
    I've got all the copper lines
    i take my sweet damned time
    and I'll monopolise
    I will monopolise

    I took all the lawyers I had
    sued the odtr about loot
    cos they wanted a fair price
    for the local loop
    and I spent oh so much time
    just shuffling my feet
    which i deny
    and I hold my head up high
    and talk about isdn
    call it something new
    say its high speed
    as i offer it to you
    yet u are still not pleased
    and want better technology
    but I'm saving all the dsl
    for those that can pay a massive fee

    ....

    lol ... that is very funny. Does anyone have a good singing voice? I was kinda humm-ing through it, and it does suit it very well. It would be great if someone could see along and record it as an mp3. Could be a good promo for Ireland Offline too :)

    My Line and you whine
    (eircom hold music)

    If tomorrow is judgement day
    And I'm dialling up a slow line
    And the ODTR asks me what I did with my life
    I will say I spent it with eircom, (on hold)

    Cause your line is MY line
    And my line is MY line
    It would take an eternity to break us UP!
    It would take an eternity to break us UP!
    It would take an eternity to break us UP!
