SUPER NINTENDO

Every morning was gray, yeah

Another gray school day, yeah

Cafeteria mess

Cold on the tray, yeah

 

Face full of pimples and braces

Couldn’t talk to a girl, no

But I saved the princess

In Mario World

 

Afternoons after school, the TV was mine

I’d push that purple slide and leave the suburbs behind

I died a thousand times, the game didn’t end, though

I had unlimited lives on the Super Nintendo

 

Blast through my homework

Leave it half-assed, yeah

Now down to business

A Link to the Past, yeah

 

Even while it boots up

Keep mashing start, yeah

The controller I hold

Is wired to my heart

 

Afternoons after school, the TV was mine

I’d push that purple slide and leave the suburbs behind

I died a thousand times, the game didn’t end, though

I had unlimited lives on the Super Nintendo

 

Afternoons after school, the TV was mine

I’d push that purple slide and leave the suburbs behind

I see those bloodshot eyes through memory’s window

With unlimited lives on the Super Nintendo
