When you want to play the new hotness but everyone wants to play some they know instead.  A classic with some slightly tabletop lyrics instead. Board Town Road..   Yeah,I'm gonna take my games to boardgame club, I'm gonna drive so I can take them all I'm gonna take my games to boardgame club, I'm gonna drive so I can take them all. I got board games in the back, Board games in my lap Got a special bag, With board games I can pack. With the hotness I can source, (Kickstarters of course.) Adding to my tally Spending too much of my lolly. They are gonna want for nothing (gonna want for nothing) Of my games, they play nothing We end up playing nothing. Always end up chatting, Catching up and laughing Always end up playing, That Mars game that I'm hating, My life is a Movie Of Watched it Played and Rulebooks And learning games each session Answering their questions Playing all the new games(Do we have to play a new game?) They want to play an old game (We know how to play an old game?) Yeah,I'm gonna take my games to boardgame club, I'm gonna drive, so I can take them all I'll not play my games to boardgame club, Next time, I'll leave them in the car..
