“Suffragette City”
Posted at 17:00 on 14th September 2025 - permalink

My most recent contribution to the Maraoke video game karaoke songlist – first performed 12/09/2025.

I felt that the songlist was lacking in positive Cyberpunk 2077-themed rewrites.

I originally started rewriting Robert Palmer’s ‘Bad Case of Loving You’ (“Viktor Vektor, gimme the news” etc.), but in addition to being a song where everyone remembers precisely one line, the rest of it is also quite crap (sorry). No such problems with good ol’ Zavid.

“(Too Much) Stuff In Night City”
– after “Suffragette City” by David Bowie

(Hey man) I’m just off the phone, y’know
(Hey man) Yeah it was Paweł Sasko, he got that-
(Hey man) He got that egg on his face
This yellow mess-age
Just put ’em right out the race
(Hey man) They’re dissing your game
(Hey man) Your work’s down the drain
(Hey man) We thought you’d all been shitcanned
But then the DLC hit, then V –
And then V –

Ah now CDPR
Could you hold on for a minute?
There’s too much stuff in Night City
Oh don’t lean on GameFAQs
You should take some time to check it
Enormous depth in Night City
There’s gigabytes
It’s not shite
(Oo-ooh)

(Hey man) Nintendo got folks in line, to play
(Hey man) But I would rather take mine raytraced
(Hey man) Ch-choom it don’t crash here
Since version 2.1 see how it runs
Here we come

Ah now CDPR
Earning back their Metacritic
I’m back to hustling Night City
It’s a deep open world
Not a load of Ubi-gimmicks
There’s even pubs in Night City
The Afterlife
It’s alright

Oh Skippy!

[BREAK]

Ah, Placide is the man
Who is gonna punch V’s ticket
They’re getting snuffed in Night City
Ah stay clear of the scavs
Cause they’re gonna sell your kidneys
To nomads smuggling Night City

Johnny Silverhand
Says you can’t remove the Relic
So they’re both stuck in Night City
Says he’s got a plan
But V can decide to wreck it
Who can ya trust in Night City
I met a guy
(Waaah) With blue eyes!

I’m chuffed with Night City
So chuffed with Night City
Max-Tac is up in Night City
Us Cracks rocked up in Night City
(Woah!) The Mox in Night City
(Woah!) Doc Paradox in Night City
(Hoo-ha) Fed up with Night City?
(Hoo-ha) Ah not just yet-

Aaaaahhh, Panam Thank You Ma’am!

What’s up in Night City?
What’s up in Night City?
(Ride a bike) Break stuff in Night City
(Do crimes) Get buff in Night City
(Oh) No Crufts in Night City
Oh my love for Night City
(Oh) my love for Night City
Ah… (not just yet)

…CD PROJEKT!
