The Lyrics

"It's been done before!" is not as solid a critique as one may think...
One thing I'm really tired of seeing said
Movies or games or comics, same nonsense spread
They notice something happ'ning and then they flip
'Cause it's been done before, thus they lose their shit
Sick of all the absolute tripe
From people who don't know how to write
I'm reading a whole thread full of lies
A big pile of bollocks, I'll tell you why

Not stolen, alright, how the genre just goes, goes, goes
Is it shot-for-shot? Gonna guess that's a no, no, no
I'm done ignoring you until it sticks to you that you're a dope
That's no ripoff, that's no ripoff, it's just a trope
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-oh-oh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-oh-oh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-oh
That's no ripoff, that's no ripoff, it's just a trope

Sure, some clichés are awful, that's not what's wrong
These folks are getting pissy like it's a song that just samples
Whole chunks of a famous tune, I get why that's shit
But this is more the four chords: a stock basis
"Hero fails to save his girl's life?
Ripoff of "The Night Gwen Stacy Died""
Was she thrown off a bridge? Whiplashed spine?
No? Go find a hot take that isn't ice

Tales as old as time so the chances are low, low, low
That really new stuff can break through, yes, it blow, blow, blows
So now you have that truth, maybe there's a chance you won't be a dope (a total dope)
That's no ripoff, that's no ripoff, it's just a trope
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-oh-oh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-oh-oh (the chances are low)
Ooh-ooh-ooh (you're not a dope), ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-oh (an absolute dope)
That's no ripoff, that's no ripoff, it's just a trope

Have a break, take it slow, slow, slow
Not clever at all, all your "same picture" joke, joke, jokes
Joseph Campbell beat you to the punch and he's cool, not a troll dope (a decent bloke)
That's no ripoff, that's no ripoff, it's just a trope

This is basically my approach when it comes to picking topics to write parodies about. I can do something similar to what I've done before, just not too similar.
