The Lyrics

This one, understandably, took a while. Links can be found under the parody, as Chucky don't allow links to other sites in the lyrics now.
[STARSCREAM decides to put his plans into action. However, he nees more help than the rest of the SEEKERS. He gathers all the rest of the DECEPTICONS, and gives a little "pep talk". He gives this talk in under 10 minutes, but in the form of a song. RAMJET is on drums, THUNDERCRACKER is on guitar, SKYWARP is on bass, DIRGE and THRUST are on backup vocals, SUNSTORM is on the other guitar and of course STARSCREAM is on lead vocals]

[Music starts up]

[Part 1: Megatron Of Cybertron]

Sick of taking orders from
That Megatron of Cybertron
The leader of the Decepticons
But he's not done a great job

Energon and Matrices
That is all he wants; don't care if we die
Or even if we fry
We are just things that can be desposed with

But there's something that he's missed
All these years, I have grown pissed
Bet that he's surprised to see
A revolt led by me

Sure I've done this many times
Adding to my many crimes
But now I know where I went wrong
And that was the time of attack

And now all I need is your help
To rid us of this useless whelp
So Stunticons, and Combaticons
And the rest of you robots, come!

Time for the Age of Starscream
It is my ultimate dream
To see that Megatron get creamed
Especially by me

[Part 2: Minions Of The Dumb]

[The DECEPTICONS are getting really interested, but what's in it for them? Why should they help?]

There's a nagging little thought
Way down in my spark
I am not the only one that Megatron has wronged
He hates it when I nag

He thinks Menasor's a dumbass
And slow as well
Plus Astrotrain's crap
And he hates Bombshell
He treats us all like slag

Minions of the dumb
At the end of your wits with this jackass
His treatment of us ain't fair
Servants of the dumb
You should do more than just whinge and back-sass
Someone else should be leader

I ransacked his logbook
And guess what I saw
A list of his lackeys and all of our flaws
I'll read the worst to you now

"Ramjet needs beating"
"Note to self: blow up Ratbat"
"That Ravage must be fixed"
"Laserbeak needs a cage"
"Soundwave is a bossy cow"

Bootlicks of the dumb
Megatron ain't worthy to be leader
All his master plans have failed
Minions of the dumb
I need your skills to tackle this prat
His scraps can be shoved in jail

[Part 3: Who Here Cares (Who's In Charge?)]

[STARSCREAM is getting really psyched up now. He's got all the DECEPTICONS headbanging. It's never worked this well before.]

Megatron is at large
Megatron's ass is large
Who here cares who is in charge?

Megatron shoud be dead
And I should have his head
Do you care by whom you're lead?

Megatron makes me cross
So who here gives a toss
Who exactly is the boss?

Megatron won't be pleased
When he is on his knees
Who here cares who's the big cheese?
Should be me!

Every fight, we all get slagged
Underneath an oil-stained flag
Sparks extinguished but he don't care
He retreats, takes to the air
And Megatron never sees our worth
I think we're stuck on this place called Earth
I think we know who the blame is upon
That Megatron of Cybertron

Land and air and sea
Doesn't mean that much to me
All Decepticons
Take out Megatron
Put me in charge!
Me in charge!
Me in charge!
Starscream's large!
Me in charge!

[Part 4: Dear Holy Primus]

[Starscream breaks down, and makes a prayer to PRIMUS, god of all , to bless the upcoming revolution. As you do.]

Dear Holy Primus, are you listening?
Please bless this revolution that I am leading
I know that in the past I've been quite bad
But I apologise, now will you help our band?

(Oooooh Oooooh
Oooooh Oooh Oooh)

Oh, won't you please, this isn't the first time
That I have tried to kick Megatron's metal hide
If you don't answer, I'll take that as 'yes'
But if I fail once again, I'll blame it all on stress

(Oooooh Oooooh
Oooooh Oooh Oooh)

[Part 5: Tales Of Another Pointless Fight]

[STARSCREAM'S nearly done. He throws in a little emotional piece - reminding the DECEPTICONS of all the times they've fought their enemies - the Autobots - and how they got trashed each time]

Each time we had a fight
Autobots would kick our hide
We'd run then fly away
Our boss would then blame me

And what did we gain?
Some shattered glass and aching brains
We lost, we'll lose again
Return to our home den
So I plot, and plot some more
Some think that I'm a bore

But I still must try
To show Megatron's slagging lies
And I hope this time
We'll win and rob him of his life
Then we'll be fine

(Flaming guitar solo by Sunstorm)

[Piano breakdown, with pianos by STARSCREAM]

It's such a slagging shame
That now my plans are right
Because it's too late for his crimes
He's made us fight them, but
The Autobots still win
Tales of another pointless fight

Follow me!
Follow me!
Follow me!
We'll kick his fat arse!

[STARSCREAM has convinced the DECEPTICONS that MEGATRON is a total pansy with no respect for any of them. They charge into the base singing a little anthem...]

It's the next track, Stu. I'm parodying the entire album. Kinda like Chris bodily TM, but with a different topic.
