Something and the Whatevers - Reset Lyrics

Well I've been playing a video game
Where there are no checkpoints and no way to save
And I've been playing this game for twenty-three years
And I've been making good time, and I think I'm doing fine
But if I fall behind, well that's my greatest fear
'Cause I don't know how to hit reset, and I don't know how to quit
Well I've got an idea, but I'm far too scared to attempt it
And no matter how hard I've tried, I've never found a strategy guide
Though I found some decent walkthroughs when I looked online
But when I read them all, they said a different thing each time
And all I'm asking, please, is:
Can I get my money back? can I get my money back?
Can I trade this life for another one, maybe one with rules I can understand?
Can I take this back and sell it? or maybe credit I get some in-store credit?
Can I trade this life for another one, maybe one where I won't really care if I win or lose
'Cause I think I'm going to lose

I had a chat with the creator of the universe
Said "can I pause this game just for a while, so I can rehearse?"
He said, "not yet son, but we've got a team that's working on that
It won't be ready in your lifetime but be sure to come back
When we build the next system"
And that's when I screamed at him:
Can I get my money back? can I get my money back?
Can I trade this life for another one, maybe one where I'm not trapped inside?
You gave me nothing but deceit, yeah, you never even gave me a receipt
So can I trade this life for another one, maybe one where I won't have to die when I finally lose?
'Cause I know I'm going to lose
