Lyrics:

Lookie lookie lookie what did we just top deck?
Expressive iteration bout to create some nonsense
Put the best card in our hand, exile a fetchland
Crack it and stack it and pack it in, let’s talk about the bans

Wotc wotc wotc, let us have little chat
I got an offer you can’t refuse, two treasures off the stack
But seriously consider it and open up the shed
You whip out the banhammer, i will quip a twitter thread

Expressive iteration gone, what’s gon happen now
Same story as dreadhorde archanist; Oko, thief of crowns
Same thing as treasure cruise; Lurrus of the dream den
death rite shaman, wrenn & six; why we keep pretendin…

Uro lays in wait just to bring upon his wrath
Urza’s Saga buildin constructs; power level different class
Teferi and Narset; draw engines and lock pieces
How the fuck am I the only player who seems to see this

The problem is systemic, it goes back to innistrad
Cheap threats, daze, wasteland; that’s the problem child
The cards I said before, they’ve all been is delver
Brute forcing down with Uro and Sagavan remember?

Murktide on the block; fuck it, see what happens
The best deck’ll just adopt the next new best plan of action
I don’t have all the answers but what we’re doin’,
It ain’t workin’
Can we at least all agree to have a future that’s uncertain?

Try a sample platter of the format up on modo
Where a different card is banned to collect data to look over
You don’t even have to share it; transparency is so hard
But maybe your next ban announcement will hit the correct card

Lookie lookie lookie what did we just top deck?
Expressive iteration bout to create some nonsense
Put the best card in our hand, exile a fetchland
Crack it and stack it and pack it in, let’s talk about the bans

Lookie lookie lookie what did we just top deck?
Expressive iteration bout to create some nonsense
Put the best card in our hand, exile a fetchland
Crack it and stack it and pack it in, let’s talk about the bans
