The Lyrics
Kids back in the eighties stayed home all day
We'd Breakout the Atari, for hours we played
And every week on Friday
We'd all hit the arcade
Tried to cross the street in Frogger
Got hit by a car
Missed the vine in Pitfall
And Harry fell far
Ghost got me in Pac Man
That will leave a scar
With another life
Would have cleared that board
Eaten all the ghosts and
All the fruits that I ignored
With another life
Space I would invade
And I wish I could pay
Quarters and live at the arcade
The games I used to play
I was Mario you were my Donkey Kong
When you hit me with a barrel, it felt so wrong
Got pumped to play Dig Dug
You blew my pooka up (Whoa)
Maybe I should play some new RPGs
Since I like golf, try Golden Tee
But newer games don't have a
Leg up on Centipede
But with another life
I'd get that high score
Defend Earth from Asteroids
And I would save the world
With another life
Tempest turns to rage
Now you'll feel my Rampage
Cause there is nothing out today
The games I used to play
The ga-a-a-a-a-mes
The ga-a-a-a-a-mes
The ga-a-a-a-a-mes
The games I used to play
Modern games are not like that, just isn't so (Nooooo)
Cause when you die you just hit reload (lo-o-oad)
Or go online and find the right cheat code (co-o-ode)
Now you're invincible
With another life
In a cartoon world
Take out Singe the Dragon and
At last I'd get the girl
With another life
At Missile Command
With joystick in my hand
I'll save the planet if I can
The games I used to play
The ga-a-a-a-a-mes
The ga-a-a-a-a-mes
The ga-a-a-a-a-mes
With another life
At ten thousand points
I'd get an extra man
You know they never disappoint
The games I used to play
