The Lyrics
There's many things to blame when your video gaming isn't going as well as you'd hoped. An abundance of glitches, lag, you, obtuse puzzles, you, too many mechanics, you...ah, yes! The controller! Obviously the only culprit!
Controller rage
I'm sure you've heard of that common phrase
Ah-ha, it's something like
"Poor worksman blames their tools", that's right
The games you play
Have many problems that you wash away
Ah-ha, controller rage
Is your preferred excuse, at least today
"Game over" screen
Is 'cause the Y button won't press deep
Or the left trigger doesn't squeeze like so
Would really suck but is it true? Don't know
Controller rage
That's where the fault is gonna go today
Ah-ha, I get you're pissed
But don't forget to use your frigging brain
Controller rage
The issue could be with the glitchy game
Ah-ha, controller rage
Or maybe you're just kinda lame
Take five and breathe
I bet you'll find when your slate is clean
A clearer picture 'bout what's wrong, you'll know
What's working normal and what really blows
Controller rage
Hate that I'm used to this, routine's insane
Ah-ha, whole schtick's inane
Least you're not throwing it, expensive pain
I'm sure you've heard of that common phrase
Ah-ha, it's something like
"Poor worksman blames their tools", that's right
The games you play
Have many problems that you wash away
Ah-ha, controller rage
Is your preferred excuse, at least today
"Game over" screen
Is 'cause the Y button won't press deep
Or the left trigger doesn't squeeze like so
Would really suck but is it true? Don't know
Controller rage
That's where the fault is gonna go today
Ah-ha, I get you're pissed
But don't forget to use your frigging brain
Controller rage
The issue could be with the glitchy game
Ah-ha, controller rage
Or maybe you're just kinda lame
Take five and breathe
I bet you'll find when your slate is clean
A clearer picture 'bout what's wrong, you'll know
What's working normal and what really blows
Controller rage
Hate that I'm used to this, routine's insane
Ah-ha, whole schtick's inane
Least you're not throwing it, expensive pain
Me: "Enola Gay? Man, the 80's, am I right? Especially with a band name like Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark, this has gotta be the silliest thing in the wo- *discovers the song's about goddamn Hiroshima*...oh! Well, I'm in a considerably less chipper mood."
