Get Up, Get Out (The Antagonist's Ballad)

CHIPTUNE. HARDCORE PUNK. VIDEO GAME NERDOM. STUPIDLY COPIOUS AMOUNT OF SURFY REVERB. WITH YOUR POWERS COMBINED I AM....SEAGULL CHAINSAW!
Finally, my singing voice is making a debut (here), and so far I've had good responses from it. As you will tell though its not really singing and more like punk shouting. Singing is not a strong point of mine but i think i can get by, and it suits this particular sort of music. So far its been compared to the likes of RIP Society bands, and thats a good thing. And for the first time, the mix has been a big challenge. This song will be re-recorded when i do the proper EP next year, but this is the first song.
The song is about video game antagonists, because what else can i sing about? Here are the lyrics, i'm sure most of you can figure out which bad guys i'm talking about. 1000 points for the first chump that gets em all. Theres only one game series that has been mentioned twice. Danke.

The princess is in another castle
Dracula’s there its time to battle
Right down there where the Mother Brain resides
Its dangerous to go alone take this now
Each robot master I will take down
The egg mobile is running away again
Get Up Get Out
Get Up Get Out
Get Up Get Out
Its time to save the day
Team Rocket’s attacks are so feral
Reapers has put all life at peril
Would you kindly lower your weapon?
What a horrible night to have a curse
Creepers and endermen all disperse.
These ghosts won’t let you eat in peace.
Get Up Get Out
Get Up Get Out
Get Up Get Out
Its time to save the day
Who will save us
from the evil heartless?
who will save us
from the clouds of darkness?
who will save us
Cortex wants the world
who will save us
its already invaded by Hell.
Who will
Save us?
Black Mesa has been shot to hell
Aperture isn’t doing so well
The Alpha Sections were evil all along
General Morden’s making life tough
The Covenant is playing rough
The War against Giygas is now.
Get Up Get Out
Get Up Get Out
Get Up Get Out
Time to save the day
