DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince - Human Video Game Lyrics

Ever since I was younger
I was into video games
Tron or whatever, it didn't matter the name
Thousands of my dollars, have been poured
Into all types of games
Tryin' to get the high score
But now I think I have a favorite
It's me against an ape, he's got my girl
I've got to save her!
Oh no, I feel an attack comin' on
Yo Ready Rock C I wanna play
A game of Donkey Kong!
Ready Rock does the entire intro
And starts beatboxing after

It used to be a problem this addiction I have
I would feel the urge
Then I'd go stark ravin' mad!
Break into the arcade
Screamin' and hollerin'
Anticipatin' puttin' twenty-five dollars in
Any machine, I was out of control!
I didn't need quarters I brought
Ten dollar bank rolls
Bags of quarters, I was insane
People thought that I worked there
And asked me for change
But I would get defensive and yell
"Leave me alone!
These are my quarters stupid
Go get your own!"
Dude walked away with this look
In his eyes like "Yo man
I wonder what's wrong with that guy?"
I was addicted, a video burn-out
And I would crazy when the guy
Would have to turn out
The lights at midnight
I'd fall on my knees and say
"Have a heart pal, one more game please?"
Some nights I might sleep on the subway
Or outside of the arcade 'til it
Opened up the next day
And when it opened at a quarter to ten
It was the same old thing all over again
I was doin' bad, my future was bleak
I'd rather play games than eat or sleep
Until one day, this guy came along
He didn't have a radio but
He was playin' a song
I got curious, so I said, "Yo!
What's that noise?" "What noise?
I don't know!
"No fool, that noise you was makin there!"
"What this?!" starts beatboxing "yeah!
That was def man
Where'd you learn to do that?"
"Man, I don't know
I guess I always knew that
I had this talent deep down inside
You wanna hear some more man?" "yeah!"
"Come on let's take a ride"
He made sounds like I never heard before
And he still had more!
Then he got me hyped when
He played this incredible song
And I lost my mind when
Ready C played Donkey Kong

Ready Rock does the intro
Kong shaking the beams
The "How High Can You Go?" music
And the actual game sounds
Yo Ready, get funky with it!
Ready gets busy on the beatbox
Yo Jeff man what you doin'? Give Ready a hand
Jazzy Jeff throws on another beat

Now my life is wonderful and I feel great
I haven't been in an arcade since '78
Thanks to Ready C I'm on an upward trail
Because he's always by my side
He never fails me
Whenever I have a video attack
He's right there by my back
Keepin' me on track
So if I bug out, and act like a lunatic
He does Donkey Kong, and as soon as it
Gets to my eardrums, from his vocal chords
I get hyped up! No matter how bored I am
He always comes through
Oh my fault, hold up, wait
Let me tell you who
Ready Rock C is, here's a brief description
Of the things that he can
Do in his musical position
Ready Rock C makes sounds with his mouth
Yo Ready give an example of
What I'm talkin' about
Ready Rock beatboxes and then does
Pac Man's death sound

Game over!
Yo, Scram man, why you still standin' there?
The game is over, ha ha ha ha ha, sucker!
