It was 1996 when Duke3D came out
Just a year later they decided to start
a brand-new Duke game looking much more advanced
based on Quake 2 to make it kick ass

Oh... we're all fed up with waiting
Everything they are saying
is that it will come out, the release date is "when it's done"
We're all fed up with waiting
Everything they are saying
is that it will come out, but the wait is no more fun
I've been waiting too long for Duke Nukem Forever
Who knows when it'll come out, maybe now or maybe never
They say it will rock, we'll see it however
Duke 4's release date is still fare away

In May 1998 they made a big deal
They threw off Quake 2 and they switched to Unreal
They started rebuilding all the levels again
and tweaking the engine as much as they can

Oh... we're all fed up with waiting
Everything they are saying
is that it will come out, the release date is "when it's done"

You wouldn't believe me, now the story gets hot
They switched to Unreal Tournament then they took some screenshots
A Y2K release date has already been scrapped
Duke Nukem or Max Payne, no wonder who's last

Oh... we're all fed up with waiting
Everything they are saying

Duke 4's release date is still fare away
I hope it'll be done before Y3K!
Release the damn game, 'cause I want to play!!!
