OK, first check out the original lyrics, and maybe listen to the clip

Then read what I've managed so far- Suggestions welcome.

I got two defence fleets in a retrofit chain
The Rage are attacking my homeworld again
The situation's strategy taxes my brain
there must be something I can do to cause the bastards pain
I'm looking over to my girlfriend you know
There's nothing in the way she looks to show
That she too, knows what I know,
The need to see your dominion grow
Studying the game map, I feel I've found my place
Searching out for new planets for my conqueror race
If you stand in my way, you know you'll get erased,
A word about my weakness

I'm totally addicted to space
Wow woah ho
Totally addicted to space
Wow woah ho

(Wow woah ho)

And when the polaron cannons are cool
I bring my ships back home to refuel

(Yeah, I know, I need to get a life...)

76. You have baracaded yourself in your computer room, and have been playing SEIV now for 15 days strait without any sleep.
77. You realize on day 16 that dispite your best efforts, your still not finished with the game.
78. You establish a military alliance with your family knowing that they will never honor the agreement.
79. You have consider glassing your wifes homeworld.
80. You make active plans to invade the living room.
81. After months of playing SEIV on PBW, you go through withdrawls symptoms while waiting for your new game to start.
82. You have never truly finished a game of SEIV.
83. You now view time in increments of 10.

Inspired by #83:

As we all know, Space Empires IV uses a decimal date system (ie 10 months per year) rather than our own quirky, inefficient 12 month model.

For those wishing to switch to the decimal system, I have created this handy SEIV date converter sheet. Enjoy!

84. Your dates have been told from the git go that SEIV is as important as they are and when Gold comes out you will be unavailable for a week or more. (I don't know if you think this if funny, but it is true).
